All Appy Reunion.

On Saturday the 25^th January, 2020, a bunch of ex-Appies and ex-JEATS with their lovely ladies, got together at the Werribee RSL, as they normally do, for a few beers, a few nibblies, to tell a few tall tales and to generally have a good time.

Organiser of the annual event was, as usual, Phil “Dick” Tracy who was on 13 Appy, way back in 1959 – 1961.

People came from far and wide to be at the 46^th get together which started at 1.00 pm and went on and on. Finger food was served throughout the afternoon then those that wished, enjoyed an evening meal at the RSL.

People paid $20 to be at the event which included the finger food as well as free drinks well into the afternoon, that’s well organised.

Dick Tracy (left) and Graeme Oxley welcomed everyone to the get together and to everyone’s delight, put a few extra bob over the bar.
