Hi everyone,

I popped across to The Fishers Pond today, as its not far from us, and paid the £200 deposit (20 x £10) for this event and have the receipt stapled to my copy of the Meal Order Spreadsheet, so we are all good to go :+1:

Patricia & John will be leading the drive, as per the link in Post#1. However, I will not be on the drive, as John has asked if we could head straight to the venue and try and hold our parking places, so Serena and I will meet you at The Fishers Pond on your arrival :+1:

Best Regards

Mal & Serena

Hi Gerry,

I have a place for you, as Patricia & John have sadly had to pull out, so let me know your food choice soonest and I will add you to the spreadsheet :wink:

If you have a guest to bring along, that will fill the two spaces nicely.

Best Regards

Mal

Hi Everyone,

Sadly Patricia & John Wheeler are no longer able to join us on Sunday, as John is currently in QA Hospital having investigations for severe Anemia and they felt it unswise to try and come along if John gets out of hospital in the next day or so, as he needs to rest up for a while, whcih we wholeheartedly agree with :+1:

To this end, I have updated the spreadhsheet in Post#1, with Sally & Gerry’s meal choices and have emailed an updated copy to Jo at The Fishers Pond.

I am pleased to say that Gerry Hall and Sally Carter have now taken Patricia & John’s places, so all is good with reference to our numbers and Serena and I will also lead the drive, from the McDonalds/ Lidl Rendevous Point in Waterlooville on Sunday :racing_car:

We look forward to seeing you all Sunday at Waterlooville :wink:

Best Regards

Mal & Serena

PS: Dont forget to print off your Tulip Directions, using the link given in Post#1
