Just try ordering a sandwich off the bar menu in the lounge at the wrong time of day, or if the winds in the wrong direction or,or.... trouble is it really is a great place. Hope everyone gets there early on Saturday pm, it would be a shame to miss having a wander around Stamford or maybe even a little lap around Rutland Water in the cars
Andrew, what a good idea. Do you fancy organising it? Retman said:

I still have the reserves registered so don't worry your not forgotten.
The George suggest,to keep it simple that we choose from a 2 item menu offering a choice of 2 starters,2 mains and 2 desserts,they suggest this as the most popular choice.
To Start,
Melon with Tuscan Ham and Fresh Figs.
or
Minestrone Soup with a Garlic and Parmesan Crouton.
The Main,
English Sirloin of Beef,roasted rare to medium,with Yorkshire pudding and hot horseradish sauce carved off the bone.
or
Poached Fillet of organic Salmon with Prawns,tomato and butter wine sauce.
All served with fresh seasonal vegetables and potatoes.
The Desserts,
Profiteroles with Chocolate sauce.
or
The George's Sherry Trifle.
To End,
Coffee or Tea with Truffles.
The cost per head for your choice of meal is £39.95 per head,which as I've mentioned previously is pre payable in advance so nearer the time I shall have to do an Uncle Bob and get you
all to forward your loot so that I can make one full payment to the George.
I understand that our tables will be laid out with your name cards identifying your place as to aid the staff in serving your meal swiftly and correctly with the least of fuss.
Drinks for those staying in the hotel as residents may be charged to your room but non residents guests must pay for their drinks before leaving the Hotel as individual tabs will hopefully be recorded by your place at the table and your name.
This menu is their most popular choice,so if it suited everybody it would make life so much easier,please have a think and let me know your thoughts as I would like to arrange our requirements sooner rather than later as it appears I've got quite a lot on……....
Thanks for your anticipated response and if you are in touch with each other please mention the post in case any one misses it,it might also be a good idea to pm me to let me know you've read this or even with your choice if thats ok so I'm not left in the dark…..
Cheers,
Ed the slightly shell shock and bewildered……..
NB, When a xxx appears next to a name it is to confirm that I have received their choice of menu,I wonder who will be the last to get the triple x seal of approval……..

Hi all,
Just to let you know today you should have received a payment request from myself to cover the cost of your meals,I've sent out 2 emails the first for all those with standard
requirements and a second to the 3 couples with a differing dietary requirement.
The mails have gone to the email address I have so in some cases they will be at you place of work so don't worry if they haven't popped up at home today as I appreciate it is
a Bank Holiday.
If you could forward the required funds via the details provided by the 30th of June it would be appreciated please so that I can make one transaction to the George Hotel.
Once payments are in I shall confirm anything and everything that may be relevant.
Many thanks,
Ed.

Could you believe that...what a wker....
I'd believe anything nowadays.Just been watching the film " The Dambusters ".
I remember watching it when I was a kid,surprised that they kept the original name of Guy Gibson's dog,the "n" word.
I thought it had been edited out.
Great soundtrack ... Dah dah de dah da da de dah......
