Unfortunately, I may have to cry-off from this event. I’m awaiting news from my sister, who might need some help from me.

Hopefully not, as it’s a great gathering.

I hope you can make it, we're playing the All Blacks at 2:10.

 

[Toddmeister]

Sadly I’m now not going to be able to make this one as I’m now needed at Bisley to shoot things on the Saturday and then racing in a sculling quad on the epic Boat Race course on the Sunday (allbeit at a much slower pace than those young fit blokes manage!)

 

[Wapping]

I hope you can make it, we're playing the All Blacks at 2:10.

Fingers and other bits crossed.

I am in the hands of others at the moment.

Hopefully you / we will be able to get onto the usual settee for the match.

as an aside, just noticed that - or rather that I couldn't locate mention of this gathering in any event calendar? Or am I looking into formal events?

 

[Wapping]

Historically, it’s been in the SE section, driven in part by the ‘Soft shandy’ tag.

As always, happy to travel, but alas not this time.

Sadly I'm going to have to bail as family duties take precedence.

I was looking forward to this so hopefully I will be able to make it another time. Keep up the great work.

On going health issues has ruled me out..

[Loiq]

got to work on this abit... diary still all good for the time being

 

[Pukmeister]

I'm a no, sadly I've been a bit unwell lately with a URTI that has knocked me right off my feet.

That is a case of bad influenza followed by a chest infection like bronchitis within six weeks of each other.

Being outdoors in the cold at present is not good for me, I need to stay warm and dry indoors as its the wifes' Birthday trip to Poland in December that I need to be healthy for.

 

[The Other PaulG]

Hi -

OK, catering.

We will roll out our usual plan of having a bbq.. sorry braai... on the Saturday - more of that to come - and eat in the pub on Friday night (which has always worked well in terms of accommodating people's varied arrival times).

I will now book a table, so please confirm yay or nay, whether you want to eat in the pub on Friday. I'll book for 7pm.

Please could these folk respond, and if you're subsequently able to join us too, just let me know.

Cheers,

Eat in the pub for me on Friday, please.

Saturday, I’m happy to fire up the braai, gas BBQ etc etc and make it all available to everyone. On that measure, maybe it’s easiest if people bring what they want to cook, rather than us having too much? Likewise breakfast on Saturday and Sunday, I’d suggest.
