Can you believe it is almost five years since you left Durham?

It will soon be our five year reunion and I really hope that as many of our cohort as possible can attend. We are all now a little older; perhaps some of us are even wiser. Certainly we should not pass up this opportunity to get together in our old haunts and celebrate and feel a little younger.

I do hope you will join myself and others on the 15th-17th of September 2017 for a weekend of memories and catch-ups. The weekend is centred around our cohort who began in 2009 but friends from other years, spouses, partners, children and miscellaneous +1’s are all more than welcome!

The main event will be a black-tie formal on the Saturday evening in the Haughton Dining Room, preceding which there will be a sparkling reception provided by the St John’s Society.

Other entertainments and delights are being planned, such as a quiz in the college bar and a wine-tasting in John’s new(ish) wine cellar, hosted by the infamous Benedict Douglas. College will of course be serving college brunch (and if that hasn’t sold it, I don’t know what will!).

Please feel free to add yourself to the facebook event: https://www.facebook.com/events/1251644921609018/

This promises to be a wonderful weekend and a magnificent opportunity to celebrate with old friends in the place many of us love best. I do hope to see you there!
