Re: Jan 6th Meet and Christmas Dinner

If Mr Padowan will not be there, it will mean two things. Firstly no Christmas tunes underwater which may or may not be a bad thing.
Secondly, and definately a good thing, is that there will be enough chocolates left on the plate for anybody who gets there. More to the point - enough for me.......!

You cheeky so and so! I stand by my original statement, that I only took ONE chocolate from the plate last year.

The MP3 player's not coming to Egypt with me, so it's available of anyone wants to borrow it - on the proviso that you will be listening to the tunes I choose!!

Re: Jan 6th Meet and Christmas Dinner

Don't forget secret santa!!bring a gift anyone in the posse might enjoy -£10 max value - and you'll get something equally wonderful back.

Today is the last day to buy it as gifts YOU receive for Christmas from your great auntie and don't really want are NOT acceptable!!! : )

Happy Christmas to you and yours

ps - down in cornwall, the river looked quite tempting this morning... off to look at the sea now

Re: Jan 6th Meet and Christmas Dinner

hi there,

Happy Christmas everyone....

Sorry for the late post... hope it's not to late to come along !!

Food will be the veggi stuff for me.... Camembert starter and the mushroom & stilton for mains...

Rich isn't going to make it, he's racing the same weekend.. Doh !!

I will get him to come down and do some rope pulling at some point next year though!!

Don't know how succesful I'll be in the water though... feels like AGES since I've done any diving, and now I'm all full of Christmas pudding !!

See you guys there.
Mandy

Re: Jan 6th Meet and Christmas Dinner

I was thinking something like that. Was going to do free immersion too, that way I can wear my booties

Am I right in assuming no scuba? Won't need any myself.

Cheerio,
Ben

Re: Jan 6th Meet and Christmas Dinner

Sparkles to you Greenies and Meanies, and a brave New one!
No Angels for a while, we're hibernating and keeping our tootsies warm. Maybe see you all for a cold one a little later.
Have fun always ..
