Christmas Dinner!

Postby gstark on Thu Oct 27, 2005 6:03 pm

This message is only for those who have not yet booked their seats at our Christmas dinner.

As you can perhaps tell by my little bit of messing with your mind in the "Hands Up" thread, we have a whole host of great ideas and surprises planned for this event.

So, what in the world are you waiting for?

Make your booking now!

Today!

Before you forget!

It's on December 9 and you should review this thread and make your bookings before we're all filled up.

Do it!

And when I'm good and ready, I'll tell you a little bit more about what we've got planned. ;)

I havent booked yet because I've got my mother in law, brother in law, and siter in law flying in that day. :shock:
I might be able to ditch the mother and brother, as they are coming from Blighty, but the sister is only Port Headland. If I can make it is it ok to bring Sam and her sister?

Matt,
Bring all of them along with you, it will be a great night to introduce your loves to the community and surely, they will enjoy and appreciate their son in-law much.
Bet you! they will surprise!

I haven't booked either due to a birthday weekend away for me and the good lady.
Hasn't been booked yet, Pippin's lodge looks a good idea for a break!
Is there a cut off date for bookings?

I' rather be having a good time than working a 12 hour night shift!

There is something, I'm doing wrong again! :)

I found an address, I knew the date but I was unable to find at what time dinner is? Could anyone tell me? :)

Trent,
I heard many complaints about your absence after your engagement day! :(
Perhaps, it's normal with all the young chaps once they've found their way isn't it? :lol:

I know Birdy, seems it's wedding and engagement season at the moment! I've had a wedding or engagement party every week for the past month, with the exception of last weekend when I was marshalling out at Eastern Creek! :(

I'll definitely be at the Christmas dinner and 17/12 meets though, as well as an hour or so this Saturday, I've missed seeing you guys too! :(
