2002 REUNION
The function room at the Packet Steamer Travel Inn, Netherton, Liverpool was the venue for this casual event for ex-PSNC sea-going officers ie. Captains, Deck, Engine, Electrical and Radio Officers, Pursers and Chief and Second Stewards. Naturally, spouses, partners - and to be politically correct - significant others were welcomed too and seemed to enjoy the atmosphere!
Friday 15th & Saturday 16th March 2002
No formal meal was arranged but Restaurant and Bar meals were available.
We decided to have two evenings to make it easier for people to manage one or other of the evenings, or both if you come from a distance like the Scottish and Irish contingents!
The Friday evening was purely a get-together over a few pints but on Saturday night we had a short slide / movie show in addition.
Quite a few stayed at the Travel Inn on both nights and spent part of Saturday at the Liverpool Maritime Museum, as we have done in previous years and a long lunch in the Pump Room . The ladies went sight-seeing or shopping.
The Packet Steamer - cost for 2002 was £41.95 per night for a double room (double or twin). The management agreed to hold 10 rooms (a mix of "smoking/non smoking") until the end of February 2002
