OLD FARNHAMIANS’ ASSOCIATION
We return to the Woodlands Lodge Hotel, after two successful luncheons at this lovely hotel at Woodlands in the New Forest. This will be the 49th Southampton Lunch and it is hoped that its popularity will continue and the number of members attending will again be well over forty. The date is Wednesday 13th October 2010.
The hotel has been booked from mid-day and this will enable members to have a drink and a chat in the bar prior to sitting down for the three course meal at 1.00 pm. The dress will be informal as usual, although the OFA tie should be worn. The drinks at the bar and wine for the table can be purchased at the bar or via the waiters and are not included in the price of the luncheon. Should you have any dietary requirements, please let me know well before the event so that a special meal can be arranged.It is hoped that a guest of honour will attend the event.
The cost of the luncheon this year is £19.50, which is the same as last year. Please send your remittance to me, with a cheque made out to the OFA, before the end of September. Post to the following:

The hotel is prepared to serve lunch in the resident’s dining room for any ladies who wish to accompany OFA members. Please make your own bookings for this by telephoning the hotel on 02380 292257 and please settle your own account.
