im thinking of sorting a meet/new year meal in burton on trent, a sort of pre-season get together. im looking at a few places at the moment, not wanting anything too expensive but also value for money.
i was thinking january as we can get the christmas rush out of the way tbh.
would anyone be interested?.
:y
cheers, jon

this could be pushed to early february, considering when payday is & how close after christamas.
a posibility is the boars head at sudbury, also does accomadation. could be looking at a saturday if any folks fancied a good drink & a night out. :y

Vamps,
Sat 9th Feb was going to be the date I thought :-\ but nothing confirmed from The Red Baron as far as I know :-\ :-\
So . . not booked anything myself as yet . :-\ :-\
Not heard anything regarding booking from the Alarming Man or Nitro either :-\ :-\
but always a local Premier Inn or similar if no room at the said hotel ;) ;)

If this is the level of interest then perhaps a bigger hotel, not too expensive, this one seems reasonable, but nice, decent food and environment............. :y :y

Hi Jon, can't commit 100% to this until SWMBO gets her Feb shift rota which won't be until after xmas . I will probably pre pay a £29 room at Premier inn now though on the chance that we can attend .
Could you look up which of the 2 premier inns in Burton would be the nearest to where you are holding the get together please or post up the address & postcode . I think there is a Burton central & Burton East . Both are available at £29 at the moment . Breakfast an extra £7.50 each on top.
By the way have you a price for the hotel you mentioned ?
TIA Al :y

Unfortunately, due to half term being earlier here than some areas, we will not be able to make this meet. Family commitments dictate I shall have to be in Dorset over that weekend. Had circumstances been different, we were planning to stay up for a few days and tour the area. But it is not to be. Looked forward to a get together with new faces, as well as Al, Sal, Ken, Carole, Mark and Lisa
Sorry all......but one day :y
Tony.....and Chris

May be next time Tony, you need to do what I did,move and do'nt tell the kids where you've gone too ;D :y
