Delighted to hear the announcement of the forthcoming Grove Reunion on the radio show last Friday. Unfortunately I won't be in attendance but will be there in spirit. I do hope all Grovers enjoy the night and it's poignant that the date will be the 4th anniversary of Cecil's passing. So I hope everyone gives it socks in his honour. ------------- May be going to hell in a bucket but at least I'm enjoying the ride. Biker Pat Grove 1972-1975 |

I have bought a ticket anyway. Now the logistics of getting there, and getting back, to and from the sticks are "challenging"! But hopefully I can sort something and go and enjoy the night. Thanks for the good wishes Pat - I'll have a pint in your honour!  ------------- One of its legs is both the same |

Very sad to hear two great Grove legends and close buddies on here are unable to attend the reunion on Saturday for various reasons. Sean and Gerry you will be missed. I had the great honour to share pints with you two before the reunion in 2019. An sure there will be future opportunities to go to another reunion again. 🙏🙏🙏 ------------- May be going to hell in a bucket but at least I'm enjoying the ride. Biker Pat Grove 1972-1975 |

The reunion turned out really well in the end. Bit like the original grove I only made it for 10 pm as a really busy day yesterday with Grace's birthday and its also my sisters birthday too, both on Cecil's anniversary. I got to chat to Cecils sister Gaye for the first time. Andy and Rob put on a great night and a fitting way to mark Cecils 4th anniversary. There is just something special about the music when ex grovers get together and I am sure he was looking down on us all. For all if you that couldnt make it ye were missed - Mel, Sean, Gerry and Pat and others. Rob played a song for Verona Hanlon which was a nice touch also. ------------- Keep it Local, Keep it Near! |

Thanks Brian for that summary of what appears to have a successful reunion. Cecil's spirit lives on through his son Rob on the decks and also Andy who was with Cecil before for many reunions and for all his efforts to keep the reunions going. And not forgetting all the Grovers who went and those of us who were there in spirit. Rock on 🤘 🤘🤘 ------------- May be going to hell in a bucket but at least I'm enjoying the ride.
