Unfortunately due to a huge rise in costs and being let down by our caterer we are having to postpone the formal annual dinner again. We are hugely disappointed to have to do this but we had little choice.
HOWEVER, we will still be gathering on 18 June but with a smaller, more informal get together for members in the schoolroom at St Mary de Crypt from 5.00pm – 8.00pm. I do hope you will consider joining us for this as we would love to see members after having been forced apart by the pandemic for so long.
This will replace the usual Founders’ Day Supper too and will be the venue for the handover of the OCC Presidency to Simon Smith.
After some technical challenges following the upgrade to the website we have got the shop up and running again.
The next thing we want to look at is what we should be selling. The ties sell quite well especially before the annual dinner, as does the beanie. Maybe a decent pen with the Club logo?
Enter discount code OCC2021 at the checkout stage and the discounted cost will be applied. This code can be used as many times as you like until 28th February 2021.
We have had some interest in the OCC Blazer – as nattily modelled by young Briggs – but not yet enough to push the order button.
If you have been deliberating a purchase, now is the time to press the pre-order button to receive your blazer in time for wearing at the annual dinner (maybe).
A versatile article of clothing that will be a super addition to any Old Cryptian’s wardrobe, this blazer shouldn’t be reserved for OCC events; it will be equally at home on the banks of the Thames at Henley, the Garden Stage at the End of The Road festival or deep in the Shed at Kingsholm.
