Christmas Party Reactions

Hi All!

 Just an Update to the Eastern Region Chritmas Party, all things are tickety boo and looking good for saturday night, this is just an update on where, when and what to expect![:D]

The Dinner will be 7:00 for 7:30, the same room as previous years (Same end of the hotel as the bar and swimming pool)[<:o)]

There will be a Quiz with prizes, then it will be the “MX-5actor”(a short light hearted talent show for willing volenteers), following this the now infamous ERHMF Raffle draw, to round things off there will be a little music and of course a well stocked bar![B]

 Could anybody coming along please bring a prize for the raffle, we usually collect some nice prizes and all proceeds will be going to the East Anglian Air Ambulance who we have once again chosen to support this year.

See you all Saturday

Jamie

Its going to be the bestest Christmas Do Ever… [Y]

Have a great night folks, I’ll raise a glass to you all at some point…Merry Christmas

 Nice to see you on the Telly tonight Geoff (and the LA  Team Bavers as well), you didn’t win the raffle  by the  way :slight_smile:

Whoa! I certainly had a great evening (and I don’t think I was that pissed) & I hope everyone else did too. Thanks to everyone who arranged it. A few special mentions I think.

Martin (no teeth) Curtis
Ken & Karen (of the Manor) Ward
Jamie (15 round quiz) Tink

And thanks for my balloon, keyring & card, at least 2 good things came out of that. 1) My opinion of balloons has changed, in fact I now have an opinion & they are COOL! 2) I got home and read the card again & realised I’d never recieved a thank you card until now, it’s a great feeling! Thanks [:D]

 I’ll try and get the talent bit uploaded so the colonials with an interest in geetars can submit their  view on the finalists!
 BTW Martins  facial  expressions  follow a well worn path of  geetar  maestros including Robin Trower and Jeff Beck so it is  “respect  man” [H]

He was doing that to try and look cool?

 

Can’t wait to see it  

A few photos from a fun evening [:D]

It was fab, thanks to everyone who helped out, donated prizes, took part in the talent show, etc, etc, and to everyone who came along and joined in the fun.

A few things to mention;

Quiz winner, Jon Elsey, who got his very own trophy,

Talent winners, the Fab 5, with Judith taking the trophy for being the mastermind behind the ERs very own band.

And £220.00 pounds raised in the draw for the East Anglian Air Ambulance.

Thanks guys for the thank you card, it was very much appreciated but I lost my balloon, Sharon had rescued it earlier in the evening from Daz who wanted to inhale it, but it it never made it home, probably floating around the hotel somewhere.

I can’t wait until next year now…  [:D]

 What a great night.  Loads of fun and thanks to Katie for organising and Jamie for the quiz and everyone else for…well…everything else.
 I’ve decided I’m going to give up sparklers as I don’t want to get addicted.  Don’t take up the habit, kids!
 Sorry if we were a bit rowdy but they don’t let us out of the asylum much!
 

Big thanks to Katie for organising this.

Big thanks also to Chris for his excellent work with the video!

Other very significant contributions from Robbie, Jude, Martin and many others meant the night went very well and they all deserve thanks.

 But…

 The real stars were you all, you were great, the quiz had more rounds than WBO boxing match, but you all took it well and stayed in the spirit!

Can’t wait till next year and thinking up ideas already!

Thanks to Everyone £220 to East Anglian Air Ambulance, Well Done!

 
No, it was a big thanks to  those with  talent, to KT and Jon for  being  in the right place at the right time with cameras, and Tracey for the pics, oh and all those with talent!  Sorry to Duncan and Elizabeth that we  didn’t  get you on  the big screen but  live is always  better!  As I write  u tube is doing things with the talent tape…not long now!
 
Great evening btw, how was  Daz head on Sunday am, hope it  was hurting, I couldn’t drink that much Broadside  and stay upright without the  aid of a lamp post.

 While you are waiting:

 Here it is:
Eastern Region has more talent 
Cheers Chris

 

Great video Chris, good to see that one of the guitarists knows a few chords.  

 
I felt a bit iffy before breakfast but better than normal as I wasn’t drinking quickly or mixing. I was fine after breakfast and coffee and bright as a button by midday. Practice makes perfect.  When I left later, some pesky hat wearing fools had covered my windscreen in pepper so I imagine the other Amigos felt alright too!
 
 
 

Hi Everyone,

We’re now back in the warmer climes of Vegas, must be getting nesh over here.

Looks like you all had a fantastic time on Saturday night! Love the talent show! Wish we could have been there, well we were in spirit X

Hope you all had a good night. Sounded fun. [:D]
Pics look great.

I’ll keep saving the pennies so that I can come along next year.
