West England and Wales Christmas get together?

[Paultheparaglider]

If possible, Mrs paultheparaglider and I would like to join. It would be nice to put a few faces to the names.

Thank you PaulS for the heads up.

[Paul_Sengupta]

So, Carole, venue?

[Carole P]

Right sorry been up to my eyes first with the Flu and then Scout Post (don't swear Carole) Paul Sengupta has just suggested the Custom House Penarth. I can highly recommend it, in fact the Thursday Night Flyers are going there in the next hour for our Christmas Dinner

It isn't a pie and chips venue but it can be as reasonable or as expensive as you want it

[SteveN]

Wot! no chips!!!!!

See ya there

[Paul_Sengupta]

I was going to comment that yes, they did have chips, for your benefit, as soon as Carole mentioned it, but I thought it might be a bit rude!

[Carole P]

Ok will get it booked for Saturday how many of us are there?

Steve they have the most awesome of chips I went for a meal there last Thursday and there were so many chips we left some!! The food was amazing

[Paul_Sengupta]

Me.

[Carole P]

Umm Paul I know Mike and Tracy hope to be there subject to Mike not being sent back to Tanzania, looks like it may just be a local to Cardiff normal get together at this rate

[Paul_Sengupta]

Give it time. PtP said he'd like to come +1 (still on?), Steve N, Perhaps Bob Preston - I told him about it at the show and he was keen. Perhaps I should PM him.

[leiafee]

Probably me.

[Boxkite]

Has a date been fixed?

[Paul_Sengupta]

Yes, this coming Saturday evening. Customs House, Penarth.

I haven't heard from people so haven't booked any table but I had the feeling Saturday was the favourite. I also haven't heard other from Paul if you are happy to go more upmarket and thus go to the Custom House Penarth or a more pie and chips venue. I will need to book something quickly so if I can have numbers and what sort of venue I can try to sort something tomorrow

[SteveN]

Carole My 2p would be perhaps better for us to reschedule later on in January so we get some more take up especially from the English side.

[Carole P]

I'm happy for that Steve. I suspect Paul Sengupta and the like may however want a small Welsh get together.
I've not been well for 2 days but wouldn't mind getting out I haven't seen anyone in days
