FORMER crew members of the legendary Cunard liner, Queen Mary are meeting in Southampton with the aim of forming an official association next week.
This follows an impromptu gathering earlier in the year at the Cowherds public house in the Avenue when more than 100 former seafarers, who all worked on Queen Mary, gathered together to mark the entry into service of the new Queen Mary 2.
Retired crew members are set to meet up at the Pirrie Park Bowling Club in Wilton Crescent, Shirley on Monday, May 17 between 10am and 2pm.
The proposed title of the new organisation is the RMS Queen Mary One Association.
