Christmas Do (Thread One) 2006
 

Yeah, I know.....its too early to start this (especially as the November meet as not yet been put on). However, in the possible/probable absence of our usual venue, as anyone got any ideas - especially if we may have to book ahead.

1) Christmas day is on a monday, so what is likely to be the optimum night/afternoon, i.e. when the most people can turn up?

2) Location - ?????????

3) Facilities - My ideal place is a good selection of real ale and no juke box or karioke, although live music would be fine... No screaming,puking kids, though.

I suppose we can come up some ideas and then maybe start a voting thread.

PS...and yeah, I know, I'm down here most of the time so can't do any legwork in sorting stuff out up there, so apologies.

As yet nothing is booked. Due to the fact that the pub will be very busy (new pub + xmas), i have reserved the function room for the meeting. There won't be a charge for this, because it's up to me to take the booking for the night. lol
