2022 Cadet Corps Reunion
47’ers Meet Again on 75th Anniversary
The 47ers met again this year on 21st July at their usual venue The Georgian Hotel in Friargate, Derby. It was a remarkable meeting because it marked 75 years (three-quarters of a century!) since they first met as second formers in 1947.
Those attending from the left in the photograph were:
Viv Andrew, Brian Moult, John Wilkinson, Dave White, Russ Jones, Eddie Hunt, Peter Smedley and Godfrey Webster.
It was a memorable meeting and we agreed to meet again in 2023.

Report of the meeting held at The Five Lamps on Tuesday 17th September 2019
On this occasion 10 of the group made the meeting (That is 9 from the class of 1950 plus Barrie Sheard – our adopted friend and the OD Archivist.)
The meeting was totally informal and we all enjoyed a couple of hours of good conversation accompanied by some excellent food and drink. The food almost did not happen since the ‘Five Lamps’ were catering for a large funeral party (of 100+) and we were almost half an hour into the meeting before they decided that it was possible for us to order food!
We received apologies for absence, greetings and good wishes from ten of our number who were unable to join us. I trust that it was their intention for me to pass this on to the group. Anyway, this confirms the active interest of 20 of us – so we stand a chance of making double figures at meetings for a bit longer. Hopefully, this list will provide some feeling of contact across the group so please feel free to make contact with anyone yourself.
