Sorry to hear that James.

James,

Sorry you can't come ~ I'll give them a call tomorrow and hopefully get the deposit refunded.

Nigel

[James Curgenven]

Let me know if you can't and I'll make sure the cheque gets to you by Monday.

James, you're in luck ~ they're going to knock it off the balance, so no need to send me a cheque

You should shortly be receiving your Secret Santa names from sparky135 by PM. Remember gifts should cost £5 or thereabouts and the label should say who the present is for and it should be from "Santa". Happy shopping!

Good stuff Nigel, separate PMs for us?

Secret Santa details received, decided to be serious this year and do something sensible

Now if that's not a carrot for whoever has you in the Secret Santa...

Hopefully everyone one will have received their Secret Santa from Sparky135. Happy shopping

Is it too late to add our names down for this one please?

[nigelandjo]

Jay,

Your best bet is to phone the Brent House direct on 01278 760246 and see if they have any spaces as you'll have to pay the full £25 on booking ~ we're all paid up. We're booked to eat at 7.45pm ~ booking in my name for 11 people, so ask them if they have space to make the booking for 13.

You are unfortunately too late for Secret Santa.

Let me know how you get on.

Nigel

[nigelandjo]

As we're booked for 7.45pm, shall we aim to meet from 7.15pm? I'll have a sack/box in the car boot to receive the Secret Santa presents

Nigel

[stux99]

Sounds good, cant wait
Hope Santa is kind to me (and everyone else)

[nellyandjoo]

We will try to make it for 7:15

[stux99]

Just checked the menu No chips
Looking forward to this one, soon be time

[nigelandjo]

Don't forget to affix the label securely to the parcel, so that Santa knows who the lucky recipient is. We had to try and match the pattern on the sellotape (other sticky tapes are available) to the wrapping paper on a couple of parcels if I remember correctly last year!

Remember that the present is from Santa, not from you!

See you all on Saturday.

Nigel

[stux99]

Looking forward to this, but
Have you seen the forecast? Saturday is supposed to be heavy snow

Not in Burnham (according to the BBC forecast) it's going to be lovely sunshine! Light snow on Friday and sleet on Sunday!

[stux99]

Nice one Nigel, organising the weather too
A man of many talents

[nigelandjo]

Sadly Nigel's weather forecasting skills are a bit challenged! We have a fair covering of the white stuff at the moment. Let's hope it improves on the morrow.

Jo (yes I've actually got hold of the laptop!!)
