About 70 former Oxford RFC's Vikings, the club's 3rd XV, held a reunion at the club on Saturday .

The occasion was to mark and celebrate the ascendency of one of their own, Mike Florey, to the role of club president.

Some had travelled long distances to be there, one from the depths of Cornwall

Such was the success of the event, that it is intended to make it an annual one. There is even talk of a 'Vikings Association.'
