Grafham Cat Open - Evening meal 21 October [Bob]

Post by Archive »

The Grafham Catamaran Open is on 21-22 October and naturally we are expecting many Sprint 15s to take part. It is traditional to have a meal and bit of a social on the Saturday night. Following the practice of the last couple of years I am organising a meal at the Lion Hotel, Buckden (which is 2 miles up the road from the Grafham Club) which has the benefit of avoiding the disco and allowing conversation in convivial surroundings over a nice meal. I have provisionally booked a table for 24 to eat at 7.30pm. This is similar to the meal we had at Carsington last week. The cost is ?17.50 for a 3 course meal. See the menu below. I will have to firm up the numbers in the next week or so and then closer to the date I must provide them with meal selections.
Places will be allocated on a first come first served basis, so if you want me to reserve places please get back to me asap. I will keep the current list of attendees on the Sprint 15 chat page so you can see if you are in and if your chums are coming. Please tell to your friends who may not be on this distribution.
I look forward to hearing from you in due course.
Regards
Bob

Bob replied:

Hi Jim, Yes I'll add you to the dinner list. Please let me know your menu selections in the next week or so.
Yes the Lion Hotel does do B&B. It costs ?45/single room & ?60/double (it is quite a smart place). If you want to book it the phone number is 01480 810313. There will be cheaper options nearby (look at www.Grafham.org but if you want to book something do it soon as the Cat Open is a big event & places will fill up.
Regards
Bob

I have negotiated to researve a few more places (up to 30 maximum). So there are just 4 more left so if you want a place hurry to book it.
For those that have booked a place don't forget to let me have your meal selections, if you have not already done so.
Cheers
