11th April: Please note that there has been a tremendous level of interest in attending our 50th anniversary event. If you wish to book tickets, please email webmaster1@oytsouth.org, stating the number of tickets required, and also making clear if you are part of a group which will have included you in any places already reserved. As long as there is still space for you, we will reply to this email with an online booking form for you to complete. After that, we will establish a reserve list; but since a number of large groups have made provisional reservations and will almost certainly not need all their places, we hope eventually to have space for a good number of the reserves. We are also looking at whether the venue might be able to offer any increased capacity.

 



“Thank you all for this brilliant journey with lots of fun learning and friendly people.” Dan, 18
