Saturday evening curry.

[dapinky]

I would like to come but it will be a long old day for me.

This was the reason that we decided on an "early" table - so those who are not staying over on the Saturday night wouldn't be excluded - but I know it still makes for a long day for some.

Sticking my name back on the list at 15 as someone in Wiltshire removed it several days ago Perhaps this should be the table for Evora and Exige outcasts

I reckon that's the table full then. And if flashermanPhil ever gets his act together he can get a "cairy oot" and scoff it outside

[chris.t]

Tables booked in the name of Jonathan
Payment booked in the name of G Smith

Please let me know if you need to cry off at short notice.

Look forward to seeing everybody there

[dapinky]

Good effort, Jonathan - thank you for this.

A quick question on logistics......

..... I assume that each table will make it's own payment, as a 'large bill' will take some sorting out with everyone ordering from the main menu.

Even so, with Covid 'restrictions', are they happy to take cash, or will they expect one person from the table to make a card payment?

..... if that is the case, will that 'designated payee' (Smiffy!) be willing to take cash, or able to take card, or expect payment via EBT?

(I ask purely as Devils Advocate as I am happy to use my card, and take payment by Cash, EBT or Japanese Yen).

Hi Dave

I’ve not had the discussion, but I have been down there several times recently for takeaways, and they are definitely encouraging card payments. As a personal opinion, I think there will need to be a volunteer on each table who actually pays the bill and collects 1/6 of the balance from each table member.

Given that the tables won’t necessarily consist of those listed above for each table, I think all we can do is make the situation known to those who are coming, and encourage folks to pay up promptly afterwards, preferably electronically.

Mind you, if we have a police officer on one table, a magistrate on the second table, and an honest and upright Gloucestershire pensioner on the third table - what can possibly go wrong

The final bill for one thing. It always does So, what you will need is an ex analytical chemist with good mental arithmetic skills to sort it out. As I usually do

I spy with my little eye someone beginning with Volunteer

I hope the queues for the 3 toilets at the campsite aren't too bad on the Sunday morning The vindapoo curry might not wait

Sorry guys won’t be able to make it this year cars in the garage and won’t be ready till next week have a great weekend fingers crossed for next year

[Rambo]

Just come in any old banger Mark. It's the "not the M100 club" anyway. People coming in Volvo''s, Ebola's, Sinclair C5's, Trabant's etc...

OK. I made the last bit up. But it's really about the people and not so much the mode of transport. Although, if you come in a pink MX-5 you will get laughed at

[dapinky]

Yeah - wot he said

I've turned up in a Vectra before, Nick has used his Skoda, Ripo had a squashed Cavalier.......... it's all about the people, not just the cars.
