TLF Christmas Meal 2018 - Duke of Wellington, Ryarsh, 8th Dec

[Bibs]

Conveniently located very close to my house, this year's Christmas meal is in the wonderful Duke of Wellington, Ryarsh. Celebrating it's 502nd anniversary this year, the pub is also the location of our Kent monthly meet and about 1/4 of a mile down the road from the Nevill Bull where we used to go (which has sadly now changed hands) and 4 doors from me! 

The meal is at 8pm, I'll be there from 6pm (or more likely, midday!) and will be on Saturday 8th December. The bar will remain available until midnight if you need to book a cab. As usual, I'm happy to do a few ferry runs beforehand to pick you up from a local hotel. The Premier Inn in Leybourne is a popular choice, pretty cheap and has thin walls if you want to headbutt them after some rum/scotch/beer.

The cost of the 3 course meal is £27.95 and with the compliments of the pub/TLF there will be a free glass of bubbly on arrival. Please find me when you get there so we can make sure food is prepared for you.

We've capacity for up to 50 and I'm very much looking forward to seeing many of you there, old friends and new.  

Kim.com will love this as we're using a super special Google form which you can complete below to enter your menu choices.

Payment will be on the evening to the pub but PLEASE let me know if advance if you book them can't make it otherwise they'll still prepare your meal and I'll have to pay for it.

This is sounding good, we have

Can the Mrs not have a starter please

[Bibs]

No probs mate, I've updated the speadsheet 

[johnpwalsh]

Sadly, once again we are going to have to pull out due to work commitments. Bloody typical, as this time we thought we were going to make it. Off overseas in a couple of days and just crossing finger's that I'm home for Christmas.

Have a good one guy's.

[Kimbers]

I am having to look at the dates and waiting to see what happens with a family issue I'm afraid.

[ChrisJ]

@Bibs - I'm not 100% sure I'm going to be able to make it this year - clash with a re-arranged fixture and it looks like I'm not going to get home until 7pm at the earliest

 

[Bibs]

No worries Chris - We've 23 people coming so far, room for plenty more if anyone fancies it?!

Is there a lotus meet this tuesday or does the sat meal take its place?

I'll be in the pub tonight if anyone is coming along? If not, I'll be in the main bar having a pint no doubt!
