Winter social 2017
Winter social 2017
Susie has kindly handed the organising (i.e. the starting of this thread) of this regular get together over to me... so here it is.
I'm a big fan of 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it' so unless anyone has any other brainwaves shall we set the date for last Saturday of November, 25th this year, at the The Old Forge in Otterbourne? All suggestions are welcomed
http://www.theoldforgeotterbourne.co.uk/
As always everyone is welcome, including partners if they're prepared to put up with a group of butterfly nuts!
No need to RSVP just turn up if you can. The first people are normally there from around noon and most have left by around 5pm.

Sounds good to me, Buggy. It's worked having this there for several years now - all new participants welcome!

Re: Winter social 2017
Is it that time of year already?
Thanks Bugboy for keeping the same venue .
Very convenient for me as I live not far away. So I will almost certainly be there.

Re: Winter social 2017
You would be most welcome.
Re: Winter social 2017
One final bump from me. Less than a month away now so if you haven't cashed in any remaining brownie points (if you've used them all up perhaps the oven needs cleaning this weekend...), or taken the time of work for those unfortunates amongst us that work weekends, Now's the time to do it .
I do promise not to throw my first drink all over the place like I did last year

Re: Winter social 2017
Hi all,
I'm really sorry but it's looking like I won't be able to attend tomorrow's get together; the first one I'll have missed
I hope you all have a great time, and don't forget to take some photos
Cheers,

Re: Winter social 2017
Hi, what time are the first people expecting to arrive? I will have to leave early so it makes sense for me to arrive early too.

I think the first people normally get there between 12 and 1
