Please add us for the meal Kate.

.Hi everyone I’ve been in touch with Luke the manager at the grapes today . The menu on the website will be changing from this Saturday .He has another new chef starting today . He said he can accommodate a party of Upto 18 people seated in near vicinity of each other downstairs on the Friday night . I asked about the set Xmas menu (A choice of a few starters , meals & puddings )but it doesn’t start untill the 1st of Dec but he did say he could look at putting a set meal together for us at a reasonable price for a group of us or we could just order from the main menu . He will email me what he comes up with by next Saturday . 


So would everyone be happy for the meal to be on the Fri night 6.30pm/700pm ?/ they serve till 9pm 

Due the fact of yet another new chef starting today at the grapes ,I thought it best to just check out what The stag (that’s the closest pub to the club )could offer us and see if they can accommodate a group sitting together and what disabled access etc . . I’m waiting for a call back from manager Today .

Or Sunday lunch??

The Stag can accommodate us on the Friday night also . 
We can order from the menu . I did ask if he could do a 3course meal for us at a set price this is what he has sent me to share with you and see what you think . 

he Also said if we preferred the Xmas preset menu so long as we gave him a couple of weeks notice he could do that for us . I’ll upload that shortly

As soo as Luke from the grapes sends his menus I’ll put them on here .

Kate has informed me the room will be open Thursday afternoon, Friday and Sunday.
Could you please let Kate know when you will be arriving and how long you'll be staying.
Thanks

Hi yes,   spoke to Dave today he said he can open the room up for us on the  Thursday daytime  so we can get together the club bar opens at 7pm on the evening.  Friday we maybe able to have room in day but the  evening Dave will  be opening up the big room with background  music so open to everyone. .  Saturday is Queen night he did say is  fancy dress also so if anyone want to dress up theme obviously Queen.  Sunday the  room can be available for us to meet in we can have the use if the table tennis uf we wish.  So I'm challenging Anne & Malc for a rematch.  Its a pity Debbie isn't coming


she gave a good game last year. .  
If everyone wants to bring a christmas present each  wrapped up ready for Mr &  Mrs Christmas sack, like last year then everyone gets a present not your own of course
Also shall we do a Chinese raffle?  If yes bring along a prize already wrapped please.  I will have bingo tickets with me so if anyone fancies a game won't be the same without you though Adele   gonna miss you and Ken  but we know you are enjoying Scotland and we shall have a wee drink to you both.  Thanks Ken for arranging all this for us We  really appreciate all that you and the Committee do for us xxx 
Kate
