Yes - it's nearly that time of year folks - Christmas! All the Xmas goodies are already in the shops, and people are out panic buying as we speak! (Yes, I know it's only November, but that's how it is these days!) So time again to arrange our Club Christmas Night Out!
As usual, we are doing this on the first Saturday night in December, which this year falls on the 6th. We've been having our Christmas Meal at The Llandoger Trow Inn in King Street for quite a few years now, and this Christmas we will be going there again! They've always looked after us very nicely, and the good central Bristol location combined with a reasonable price and fairly decent food means that this is a good choice, plus no other venue has been suggested!
We will be meeting in the bar from 7:00pm for drinks and we will be seated to dine at 9:00pm. Please try and be there by 8:30 at the latest!
The cost is £13.99 per person. Nothing to pay up front, just please bring cash with you on the night! No credit cards please, it would make the payment process a bit of a nightmare if half want to pay by card, so definitely cash only please - thank-you very much!
This invitation is open to all BMSC members, partners, family and friends of our club. Due to the booking being for a large party, we have to pre-order our meals, as we have done so in previous years. You will see the menu lower down this posting. I need to submit these orders to The Llandoger by Saturday 22nd November, so if you would like to join us, please can you let me know your order as soon as possible! You can either reply on here, PM me, or give me a call on 07816 194736. If you are ordering for more than one person, please can you let me know what each person is having by each name, so I can compile an accurate list of what each person has ordered! After a few pre-meal drinks on the night, it's often the case that some folk can't remember what they ordered, so I will have the order list with me on the night for referral purposes!
So here are the main details again-
