Lesley Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 I'm waiting to hear back from Richard at the Horse and Groom. He has asked if 7pm is OK - or do we need it to be a bit earlier? He's putting together choices for 2 courses + coffee at a set price. Drinks to be paid for separately. Can we confirm numbers? - Clare, I wasn't sure how many you are bringing with you? Redwing Lesley and Carl moochoo + OH ClaireG tidygirlsuk Claret & Rosie + 3 guests ? lwescott Griffin hellymisscloud The Lurker laurmurf Palmer07 Just let me know if anything has changed.

The Dogmother Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 I'm not sure either Lesley. I can give you more of an idea next week. I was banking on being finished around 5.30pm and was going to go straight there, so making it earlier would be good. Either that, or I could go home and get cleaned up first.....

compostwoman Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 I must admit to wanting to eat fairly soon after the end of the course, as I have a fair way to go home after..... so 5.30 ish would be better for me...but I can always just have a drink and a chat to you all if eating later is the final plan..

Redwing Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 I love that I am at the top of the pub list! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laurmurf Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 I remember we ate like proverbial ponies after our course in Sheffield - roast lunches in Yorkshire Puds, wasn't it? 5.30 or thereabouts would be good for us - since we've got to get back to our tent, which will be easier said than done if it gets late!

laurmurf Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 I know it wouldn't be easy for you... at least you would be with other very supportive omleteers. The practicality of managing your flock might make it a useful skill Although I am sure I can speak for mostin and myself that we'd help out if ever you needed support.

Lesley Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Yes Clare - I'm hoping to take pre-orders for most. I still haven't heard the cost so I will phone later today. I hope the standard is the same when they are cooking for numbers of people - I had egg and chips when my son had the ham, egg and chips and the eggs were cooked perfectly - I hate frazzled eggs with a skin on the bottom Claire should know how they are when cooking for larger numbers?

I have to say the standard when we went was great The increase in numbers didn't seem to cause any problems what so ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
