CHRISTMAS DO – December 16^th 2006

                                                           WE’RE OFF ON SAFARI AGAIN! 

For Christmas this year we are having a safari meal on 16^th December.  It’s been a few years since the last one, so it might be worth explaining what goes on, for anyone who hasn’t been before.  We meet at one place to start the evening, but that’s all you know in advance.  Then everyone is given a note of where they are going for their starter, and we scatter to different locations across the village (still in couples if that’s how you came!).  After starter, you find out where your main course is – you will be at a different place with a different group – and the same for dessert.  Then we all meet up again to finish the evening.  If you have kindly offered to do a course at your house – you’ll see it needs to be something you can prepare in advance!  Anyone who has done it before will tell you it’s great fun and makes for a really interesting evening.   

Jane is organising it this year, and what she needs to know from you is:

 ·         Can you come?

·         Can you do a course at your house? (not compulsory, even if you live in the village!)

·         Do you have a preference for which course (starter, main, dessert?) or can it be anything?

·         How many people (including yourselves!) can you seat? 

Let Jane know – if you haven’t already – by email (research@jsgravells.freeserve.co.uk), text (07957 888109), phone (same or 790677) or note (121 Main St)
