Good news!
Today, we have booked the venue for our Christmas bash
It will be at the Billing Mill, Northampton, with a reserved area, on Friday 21st December, with meals being served at 7.30pm.
A deposit has been made to secure 20 places, although we're hoping to get more. For this reason, we're taking deposits of £5 as of now. The price per head is £20.45 BUT it's on a 'buy one, get one free' basis. This is for a full three course meal, but does not include drinks.
Please add your name to this thread, stating how many places you wish to reserve. Deposits will be collected at following meetings. If, however, you wish to book through the post, please for payment details and address.
Attendees so far: Rich & Kate Dave & Moira Rebecca Matt & Deanna Stewart Dave & Carole Jan & Graham Tracey & Phil David & Jenny Chas & Jill

Jen & I are up for the Billing location, but , from my point of view, not having a dance would be a distinct bonus. I am an absolutely hopeless dancer, and find that a lot of disco type evenings are difficult to enjoy because the music is usually deafening and you can't really chat to people if you are not dancing. Just put it down to me being a grumpy old 66-year old.

You don't have to worry about that! We'll all be sitting down at tables anyway, so any dancing will have to be tabletop... and I don't think that will be allowed...
We will have a 'Secret Santa' though and a fun quiz, but more of that nearer the time.
Rich.

Hi Rich Sounds good to me - you obviously have not heard of Bistro Live in Milton Keynes, where they strip the tables after the meal and let people dance all night on the tables - and NO I am not suggesting we change to that venue. Cheers Dave

Well, we're up to 18 entries already and that's before we've announced it at the meeting. There are quite a few that come along but aren't on the forum, so it looks like it's going to be a big booking. Excellent!
Rich.
