Well, Mr G hasn't pulled his finger out this year lol! So, would any of the usual suspects care for a steak & a drink sometime towards xmas at the Swan in Winwick? (don't as me for directions )

Ill have a aberdeen angus burger

So you're coming then? lol

I know the where, but when?

So yes, sounds lovely - date dependant

Cheers,

Steve

Well I wasn't gonna put a date up just yet, just see who wants to go and then negotiate it around xmas doos and stuff. Always hard in dec as peaople are so busy

Yep, no worries

Any day people prefer? Also, how close to christmas am I allowed to go? lol

I'll be there - date dependant

EDIT: the back end of the week before Christmas would be my preference

back end of week before xmas - by my calendar thats weekend of 21st/22nd? That would be ok with me, maybe fri 21st? Some people say they don't like things close to xmas....isn't a problem for me, I don't do anything overly important! It's my friends birthday on 22nd though, so may not be available that day.....

any other input?

The friday 21st would be good for me... as long as this place does a decent steak you can count me in!!

If not the 21st, would be able to make the 23rd (suday lunch??).

EDIT: P.s. would also have me insignifficant other too!! hehehe

lol, yes thats fine. So, looking good for friday 21st so far.....

Just need to wait for Caz, Andy etc to see the thread now

Might be ok, not sure yet.

I can't make it.

I will be donning a Tuxedo for a black tie event with my girlfriend.

Have fun

lol, yes thats fine. So, looking good for friday 21st so far.....

I'm in the States again from the 12th - 20th Dec, but if its after that I will try to make it.

I will aim to get there early evening (7.00ish maybe) if its the 21st, as I think I will have HCs in tow.

Sun lunch on the 23rd would also be a possibility for me.

I take it we are collecting calendars at ths one!

21st would be good for me, will I be looking for a man in clown shoes this year

21st would be good for me, will I be looking for a man in clown shoes this year

Looking good for the 21st then!

I will try and come to this.

Loz who can we as for directions?

Who was/is in clown shoes?

Col D, the first xmas meet at the swan, I turned up a little bit late and the only clue I had as to who to look for was from seeing a picture of Col D at the cat and fiddle wearing what looked like Orange clown shoes which in my ignorance turned out to be race boots and the comment had Col G choking on his llama burger.....
