Hi everyone, well here we are, and it is only 20 days to Christmas, wonder what Father Christmas will bring us this year ! Perhaps that long awaited MG spare?
This Month’s Events
Report for our Wednesday Wanderers
Report from Janet
“For the Wednesday Wanderers’ November outing, we had an early Christmas lunch at the Five Bells in Henlow, Bedfordshire. We had 22 members at a very long table with crackers, hats, jokes and the odd drink here and there. We enjoyed an excellent 3-course festive meal with good service and judging by the noise level, everyone had a good time! Now looking for ideas for next year.”

Club Christmas Dinner
More reminders for you regarding the Christmas dinner at the Cross Keys on Saturday 16th December. Please gather by 7pm to ‘meet and greet’ and buy your drinks, so that we are ready to sit down for the meal at 7.30pm.
At next Tuesday’s meeting:
Please bring your menu choices* with you as I need to give those to the pub as soon as possible.
Please bring your balance monies (you have all paid £5 deposit), details below. Cash is ok, cheques to be made out to ‘Janet please.
Balance for 3 courses is £28 per person, so £56 per couple.
Balance for 2 courses is £22.50 per person, so £45 per couple.
*Note that if you have chosen steak or cheese, these both carry a £4 supplement so you need to add that on. Also with steak, please indicate how you would like it cooked.
As usual, suit and black tie are welcome but optional and of course the ladies always look glamourous.
Lastly, the 10% service is already included in your payment. However, as in the past few years, we will be taking a collection for the Keech Hospice instead of all exchanging Christmas cards so please have some cash ready if you wish to donate.
If you can’t make next Tuesday’s meeting, please contact me to arrange payment and menu choices.
