I told someone at Southport that this meet was for 3 nights, sorry but it is 4 nights.

Good news folks, Shuggy and Barb have offered to be Father christmas and his little helper for the secret Santa.  

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO 

An idea for the xmas meet wat about an open fire if allowed in a brazier and if weather is ok.some mulled wine chest nuts etc etc.

wurly and jo are doing the mulled wine.dont know about the fire.

Don't think there is a cat in hells chance they will allow a brazier type fire.

Just an idea

 
We could have got away with a brazier if we had been a gang of Irish navvies

Ok bazza never mind it was just a poxie idea

No it was a good idea it's just that we're not Irish

I never said u was irish or anybody else was irish.dident know u had to be irish to have a wee brazier as i said it was only an idea seems this meet goong to be a cracker eh. 

Have you all let Peter know your choice of meal?
These have to be in, along with full payment by the 24th of November

Menu..................£15 per head

Slices of Turkey and/or haunch of Donington Venison
served with chipolata sausage & stuffing
Fillet of Salmon with Lemon & Dill
Mushroom, Cranberry & Brie Wellington (v)

All served with roast potatoes & seasonal vegetables

***

Christmas Pudding with brandy sauce
Chocolate & Raspberry Torte
Classic individual Lemon Tart
Platter of local Cheese

Is the meal cooked on a brazier

No, but you might be if you don't insert a space before the smilies  

Maybe something we can do at another meet, don't think they will allow one there, even outside

Was just going to ask them tomorrow as we have a brazier but never mind its cool

Hia
