GM Xmas dinner
 

As everyone else is planning.

Any suggestions for a venue, date?

How about same place as last year (Golden Retriever) and next week?

Ok, not next week. Early December (before the 13th), on a Thursday to replace one of our meets.

Oh yeah, I'm just suggesting, I'm not sorting it out. I will leave that to the organised or bossy types. ;)

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

OK as discussed at last nights meet

how about Thursday 6th December 2007

to eat at 8pm at the Golden Retriever or somewhere different if anyone has any other suggestions

Mods please sticky!!

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

Golden Retriever?

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

Crowthorne - where we went last year :D

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

It worked well last year, so Golden Retriever on the 6th of December starting at 7:30pm? If people are cool with that we should start to get some numbers together and book the table in that case.

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

Who could that be? Sarah? :razz:
Not 6th please as Soho is looking like 7th.
13th would be good tho'
As would a place in Guildford :roll:
We meed to be careful, TVSF might be using the Golden Retriever

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

Oh dear, am I getting a reputation?

Would seem sensibe to be in Guildford seeing as we are the Guildford Massive! I don't mind though

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

Yep thats what i was thinking too.

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

Maybe we should have a poll;)

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

I thought it was already decided
:roll:





:D

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

Start a revolution;)

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

I'm right behind you!

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

I'm not that brave!

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

Any suggestions for a guildford venue then?

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

Ok, Guildford would be good. I'm putting my foot down for NOT the 13th. The only Thursday I can do in December is the 6th due to other commitments.

Actually thinking about it, you can hold it on the 13th but I won't be there. :p

TVSF don't have enough people to hold a Xmas do, :lol: we could mingle with them for that night if they wanted.

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

Brittania? :lol: if they don't shut the kitchen early for Dan. :lol:

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

Well if someone wants to scout out some places go for it, the Britannia doesn't really have a big eating area like a gastropub or restaurant.

The Anchor would probably have enough seats but thats in Woking.

The idea behind the golden retriever is that its in the no mans land between the TV lot and GM.

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

have we got enough time to start a poll remember last year it took forever to sort out with everyone suggesting places then me and falc ended up driving round getting menus and prices together

i figure as last years place was OK lets go back

and can we have it on the 6th please Law is one of our regular members and turns up most weeks it would be a shame if he were to miss it

lets face it we aren't gonna please everyone are we

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

Britannia is good, I'm sure if we booked we could get a big table reserved.:smt111

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

their christmas menu was £20 and veryone would need to pay a deposit beforehand then ther est of the money a week before the party.

their menu was pretty good too :D

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

Oooh, what choices were there?

Feeling hungry thinking about it.:D

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

there were 3 or 4 choices per course but it did look good i must admit that

i think the soup was chedder and brocalli
pate was one

can't remember rest of starters

i'll ring up this week and ask them to send me a menu and post it up

i remember thinking at the time that looks good

sorry Dan don't think burgers are on the menu tho

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

Poor Dan :smt056

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

I'm sure they could make a Christmas burger just for Dan, more a turkey burger with stuffing...hmm an idea :D

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

They'll close early just for me is what they'll do. Swines.

Don't mind where it is. The only date I won't be able to make is the 8th and the 16th. I think we should vote on where it is, at least we can pretend we're a democracy!:rolleyes:

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

Golden Retriever is poss a bit far away unless the TV lot want to join in.

The Anchor is only 7 miles down the road.

Britannia may be a bit small but easy to get to.

How about one of the pubs in Worplesdon, The one we used to frequent or the other one down the road? Anyone been in the Cricketeers as I pass it a lot but never go in.

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

Why don't we just vote on it?

Anchor, Retriever, Brittania or alternative offering. We could be here till xmas otherwise.

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

Go on Dan, make a poll (and make sure you choose the option so that you can see who voted for what).

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

Yes of course there will be a poll, just wondering what the choices in the poll could be. You can't really put alternate on the poll as it could be anything (something stupid like Wales.)

There's a TGI's in the centre of Guildford, I wonder if TGI's still do a yummy Oreo alcoholic thing (I think it was a mint ice cream cocktail but it was yonks ago and I had lot of it so my memory's a bit hazy)

Anyway poll is a sensible idea, no rush though, we still have 2-3 months btw.

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

There is Worplesdon Place which we have been to a couple of times, but i think its a case of book now as it gets really busy.... although i'd be up for a TGI xmas meal

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

Ok, there is a rush then!

Mods! Can you add a poll to this thread please?

Worplesdon Place, Golden Retriever, TGI's, Britannia, Anchor and I'm easy me options.

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

bet is expensive though Dan didn't you complain about the burgers and chips there or was it the price of a drink i can't remember


lets vote

and who is going to ring round for the menus?

I'm with Law TGIs sounds good in fact they all sound good lol

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

Ok, poll has been added as per your options Law, lets run this poll for a week and then book it so were not too late.

Also the date the 6th is most likely the date were doing it so pen that in regardless, it doesnt conflict with other meets and means people from the GM can attend.

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

err.. I'm not even sure if I can make the 6th now :roll: I shall try to though.

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

I've voted Britannia but I'd be happy with TGIs too.

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

i'm vooting anywhere as long as we get fed!!

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

I voted TGI :D:D:D mmmmmm

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

Voted TGI too!! :D

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

Re: GM Xmas dinner
 

I want to vote TGI's again....mods! :D
