Will try and come to this one if I can but it's also going to be subject to weather - My car is absolutely useless in snow and I don't have to commute etc to have the need for winter tyres.

Post by: Thor on November 30, 2013, 01:40:22 pm: Ok, I have booked a table for 10 people at the moment, wanted to get the booking made early to secure a table in the run up to Christmas Party season. If any one else want to come i can adjust this nearer the time. :smiley:

We can order off the Christmas menu on the evening no need to prebook if you want turkey with all the trimmings etc or the regular menu. :happy2: :party:

If you are unable to make it please post or pm to let me know so that i can adjust the table booking. Thanks and look forward to seeing everyone.

Cheers Chris. I hope I can make one, too, as it feels like years since I did. I work permanent nights now and always seem to be on shift when they happen!

I also have a family funeral on the Weds and think that Mrs P won't be too pleased with me disappearing off to see my "car friends" the following afternoon.
