Is there a Grove Twitter account?
Would probably be good for word of mouth communication for Grovers living abroad. Hope Cecil & all are keeping busy and well! All good wishes, Taylor Grover 1977 - 1980 Edited by Taylor - 25-July-2014 at 00:46 |

I think they could run into the same issues with Clontarf Yacht club as they did with Parnells GAA club a few years back. All to do with private club and restrictions advertising publicly...

One of the girls in work - Martina Beck (an ex Grover) told me that she could arrange Clontarf yacht club at no charge, if the lads were interested. Just an idea anyway.

maybe another venue might be considered,as we have not been able to fill Clontarf Castle the last couple of reunions,and I imagine the room in the Castle is quiet expensive to hire...

Well said Pat. I know that we all want more reunions as and when we can have them but in the end it's up to Andy and Cecil if and when they happen. Re the bit I highlighted from your post - as I mentioned to you last night via PM, I'm full sure all of us would pay more for the price of a ticket if it meant that the reunions continue. Certainly don't want to see either of the lads being out of pocket and, being honest, I'd feel better about the nights overall if I knew the lads were making a nice profit.

Thanks Mel. I'm going to call him next week and try and meet him and get an answer.
As you said before Andy's agenda may be too busy and costs etc......must have an impact on whether it's worth it depending on the numbers that turn up. I don't know what the bottom line is after a Grove reunion, but we don't want Andy/Cecil to be out of pocket. Pat |

I bumped into Cecil in the ILAC centre around lunchtime this afternoon. I asked him if there would be a reunion this year and also that a few people had been asking about it on here. He initially joked that there wouldnt be any more as he was getting too old......then he said that he hadn't been speaking to Andy but he DID say, as he was leaving, something like "there should be".......cant remember his exact words but something like that (I think)..... Don't hang me if there isnt one now...

Thanks for the vote of confidence, why fix something thats not broken, but the whole Grove reunion gig is Andy's and Andy alone as much as I'd love to put my hand at standing at the top of the room playing music's for you all and get the experience too . I think Andy loves doing the reunions as much as we enjoy going to them and wouldn't travel over if he didn't and he knows there is no pressure or we expect him to put one on each year. I think a reunion at the end of September is a good option. 1. Every home from Holiday 2. Kids are back in school 3. Pay day is the end of the month for a lot of people 4. No bank holiday... 5. Because we want one. Peter |

next year would be better,as we would only have to wait 2 years for the 50th,instead of 3...but I agree with Frank,and whenever suits Andy and Cecil is cool

Frank, 100% agree. I always just assumed that Andy was back in Ireland in and around October B/H weekend for the last couple of reunions. Certainly, I dont think anyone would want Andy to have to come over to Ireland just so we could get a reunion sorted. Entirely up to him and Cecil of course when they have the nights. We all enjoy them, wherever and whenever they are. |

It's not really fair on Andy to come all that way for a reunion .
Maybe someone else should take up the baton and run with it ....... eh Peter(Black Russian) . |
