I didn't include Orchard apartment as it seems to be just one single apartment.
If everyone can have a look and suggest which one would suit all of us and get back to me in a week (27-06-2025) and then I can approach the accommodation for a group discount. 😀

We can accommodate up to 20 Guests. The spacious 1, 2 and 4 bedroom (this unit sleeps ten) units are each fully self-contained.

Ok Everyone. They have released the venue to the 2026 Cooks Reunion in Davenport, Tassie! I am suggesting you get in Early for accommodation bookings. I have googled the suggestions the committee has recommended and the Novotel Davenport is the closest (apparently 50 m away) How about we all have a quick think about our accommodation and try and make a group booking for all of us to stay together and hopefully get a group discount? What does everyone think about that? Please get back to me with your thoughts. Cheers for now! Billy :)

G;day Guys! Next year (2026) there is a RAN Cooks reunion being held in Tassie (place to be determined) As moderator of this page, I have been trying to organise a HMAS Brisbane Cooks reunion. Originally it was planned to be held in Canberra to make it all fair for travelling reasons. Last year, Jenny and I attended the RAN Cooks reunion on the Gold Coast and I have to admit it was a fantastic weekend. Met up with people I hadn't seen in 40 years. Soooooo, what I am suggesting is that we all try and go to next years RAN cooks reunion and combine the two. Brushy, Dolly, Kenny and myself have all signed up for it so how about we all try and do the same. You can join the RAN cooks reunion page just search it and you will see all the latest details etc. C'mon guys! Let's do it, We are not getting any younger as they say, so, lets Get here before it's to late! 😅🥰👍

G'day Ledgends!

There has been a bit of talk lately amongst ourselves that now that Covid is dead and buried, that we should get together for a drinky poo and catch up! I'm not sure if anyone is aware or not, but The Pusser's cooks reunion is on at Coolangatta on the 18th, 19th & 20th of October this year and already some of us are going. Jenny & I certainly are and so Can I suggest that this would be the earliest chance for us to have our own get together. I have done a little bit of calculating and it works out that if you would like to attend all the reunion activities it would cost you $330 per person as well as accommodation. ( I managed to get a room for 2 nights close to the reunion for $360) All it would then cost you would be your travel arrangements and any Rabbits you may want to purchase. Lets do it guys! The reunion is being held at the Greenmount Beach Surf Club. Check out the Pussers Cooks page for contact information and registration details etc. C'mon, Lets do it!!!!

Luv yas!

Harry :)
