    In that case, I'll also order something from the kitchen.

    LiT, I'd sent you a PM for the food list. Please ignore.

    Both added - list is on p1

    And I need to get a good idea of numbers then give Lisa a call and work on cost!

    I might get people to transfer across money in advance this year, just so I don't end up short.

    Well, shorter. I'm quite short already. Not cafewanda short, obv...... :P

    EDIT: and yes, room for many more! The room will comfortably hold 30-odd.

    Stick me down for food. Happy to stump up and take my chances that work doesn't screw things up.

    Will anyone actually be there? I went last Friday and I was all alone (apart from the other drinkers, but they don't ride so they don't count), so a dry run could work for me.

    Actually, I don't think I will be able to make it. Or maybe I will. I don't know. Stop asking such difficult questions!

    It's likely to be to me, not 100% sure on food cost yet, need to have a rough idea of numbers before I talk to the pub.
