Done mate thanks
Hi , it's Rod and Kate or Kate and Rod, depending on which way we're standing, bit like Ant and Dec
PLEASE READ:
Hi all, a quick update, a handful of us did another test run yesterday which in the main went really well. There are a couple of bits to still adjust but we are almost sorted.
One decision made was to reduce the numbers in each group from eight to six although two groups at the minute are still at seven. If at this point anyone is thinking they will not be able to attend please say so so i can adjust the group numbers accordingly. We felt that it was going to prove difficult in places to not loose the back half of each group.
I've opened up a 5th group now and moved a few peeps about to make the 5th group. I apologise if this doesn't suit anyone but i'm sure you appreciate it's difficult to please everyone when you have 55 people on board. I am looking for a leader and back marker for group five if anyone would be happy to step up.
The end point and meal destination is now booked and confirmed at Windmill farm. We have seats organised and there is masses of parking on site plus empty business' next door if absolutely necessary.
We are in a function room away from the main bar area which works out great as there are so many of us.
The food is a carvery which will be served in the same room, there is also a bar in the room. When you enter the premises through the main door turn RIGHT and follow the corridor straight into the function room. There are toilets just before entering the function room. Just pay for your meal at the bar and join the queue for the carvery. Anyone who doesn't want a carvery or has preferences such as vegetarian can order from the normal main menu. Hopefully everyone will find something to suit.
I will confirm timings in the next few weeks.
Thanks all
