The weather looks a bit kinder on Wednesday anyone thinking of making the effort to go along?
I belive Muley is still "down under"

[chris.t]

yes dave i hope to be a long on wednesday. this will effectively be the first meet up this year for me. 2014 has not started very well for me.

[texas2201]

I will be there - see you guys then

[chris.t]

Deirdre & I will be doing the carvery. I think weve missed out on the vouchers unless Rob can rustle some up.

[daveiow]

That's it then I will book the ferry- see you about 7-45ish.
P.s. There are a few newbie's in the area according to recent posts, just want to say all are welcome

I will definitely be there. Like Chris not had a good start to year but looking forward to catching up on Wed.

Newbies Don't be put off - its only a minority who like a moan!!!


Regards

We'll be there and carverying too. I'm afraid it'll be full price for all as I cannot see the vouchers. They are doing the loyalty stamps though so maybe can save for a free one

Good to see you all last night, the beer was exceptionally good so just as well Deirdre was driving!!!

Those that attended.

Rob Michelle

Chris
Dee

* - with Elans

Anyone without an ailment or financial problems would not have been involved in many of the conversations lol. I have booked our usual table on a rolling basis (the H&C refer to that table as No. 1 perhaps we can get them to change it to M100). It was a bit crowded last night but to be fair they have had lean times and it was good to see the place buzzing.

See you all next month.

Thought for the day - should we go back to having a kitty?

Cheers Chris

[daveiow]

Good to see you all and though the H&C was quite busy the food was a distinct improvement in my opinion
Kitty is a good idea-enough for 3 drinks and the carvery should cover it

Hi

Anyone planning on going this Wed?


I'll be in Jen's snotter as J514YHO is in bits (cambelt change underway)


Cheers


Jim

re kitty - definitely worth a go...

[chris.t]

Welcome back Jim!!

Yes I'll be there, I will ring the h&c and remind them that I booked our usual table.

Chris

[texas2201]

Cheers

Jim

[Nickydee]

Mark

Sorry to hear about you mum - trust she will make a speedy recovery.

I will attending tonight but not in the Elan.

Chris - do we qualify for our usual table if no Elans are present.

Cheers

Nick

[daveiow]

Well I better make the effort so there will be at least one Elan in attendance
Mark, best wishes to your mum from both of us.
daveiow

[rjbean]

[chris.t]

Who's going to be there tomorrow? I've forgotten which country they're trying to get the food to emulate. Guess i'll stich to good old british stodge.
