Friday night
Due to the overwhelming numbers we have decided against getting takeaway on the Friday night since by the time they'd be finished making the last persons the first one would be cold.
Instead I will cook for everyone and I'll promise not to give you food poisoning. There will be a giant pot of indian curry and another of chilli, along with rice and mini nanns/flatbreads. I promise only the finest fresh ingredients. If anyone else has any suggestions let me know but we hope everyone will like one or the other.
As for cost, there won't be one, Friday night dinner is on us since the cost to actually make it is minimal.
Also Tom has confirmed the music for the Saturday night, a local trad group will be there to entertain us, can't wait for that
And god help us all I heard wild rumours of some possible ale brewing going on

With you on that Mr K
C'mon Clare, there has to be some 'nominal' charge surely
No reason whatsoever why you should pay. Have you seen Neil, Norm, Chris and me eat

Nope, we have a great butcher for the meat and the rest is just veg and spices, a load of rice costs hardly anything and I can bake the nanns myself too so that'll just be the cost of a couple of bags of flour.
We thought long and hard about it and decided this was best all round. It will save any hassle and save everyone money that would be better spent on beer
And seriously I'm used to feeding Tom so it'll be a doddle

No as Clare has already said its on us....my local Butcher is very good to us in that he will throw in stuff for nothing as we spend quite a bit with him over the year...so the ingredients will be almost cost free....as we have said before we are trying to keep costs to a minimum for everybody ...this is about getting together having a bite to eat , drink what you want or how little you want have a good time, enjoy our wee corner of the world and have a Hooley

nope as long as we have a few helpers when the catering arises it will be grand. oh i dont think i will include the plain burgers as last year everybody seemed to prefer the peppered ones (i think i still have teeth marks on me finger) if you all agree (Yea or Nay)
Still think it would be only fair to pay something but its up yo you

Nope, not for a few miles.
All joking aside, the food will be there for everyone to enjoy if they wish, as Tom said we just want everyone to have the best weekend possible

Guilty on both counts Tom.
A 'Senior Moment' I'm afraid
I was thinking of the Borders Bash
Apologies if I got any one confused .... it's me
