Following on from the success (and sore heads) provided by our Beverley meet the other night a few people mentioned interest in another one before Xmas. There are probably others who can't justify the cost of a Leeds night out (ok ok I'm tight) so a cheaper night out in Beverley (or another town if wished but Beverley seems about in the middle and a fair few PHers live there) seems a good plan. All I will say is if you were planning on going to the Leeds do I suggest you still do, even though I left early last year it was a smashing do.

So I propose a bite to eat to line the stomach followed by a night out on the beer.

Options could be doing the cornerhouse beer and pint night (what night is this? Thurs?)

Or doing as Emma and I did on Sat night and popping to Khans Indian for the early bird (pre 6.30 it turns out it's £6.95 for starter, main, rice or naan and tea or coffee to finish) then on in to town.

Any preference on night/date?

I think that the only nights I can do are Friday 12th (which is the Leeds do but I would prefer Beverely if we get enough people as I don't need a hotel), or Friday 19th.

Not yet mate tongue out It's difficult with me being away from home during the week to be honest. I've dropped the price considerably on PH, even if it is still above what you'd part with hehe. If I dont get rid of it this Sunday then it's going on eBay for a week long auction. At least then its definitely gone.

I shall expect a pint waiting when I get a good price for it wink

PS: The other MR2 will be either stripped or up for sale this w/end too!

About the only date I can make it out for a social is the 12th Dec, but I can't be in 2 places at the same time.

Isn't this in danger of splitting a potentiall larger group up from the Leeds date, or is it 'cos people can't make it to Leeds? We all shared some decent rooms at the Jury's I recall, so it wasn't too pricey anyway.

I'm happy with Leeds or Beverley, so long as there's drink

Leeds is just a mass of queues to get to the bars to pay £4 for a bottle of beer ... out of the two I would prefer Beverley.

How about ...

Friday 12th December

It isn't meant to take people from the Leeds group at all, speaking personally for a night out (although a good night out) driving across to Leeds, getting a room then an expensive night out and driving back the day after is a lot of expense and hassle. As a lot of us live within 10 mins of Bev it makes good sense, plus as has been already said it is far easier to get served!

£1.39 in Nellies unless you go for the wheatbeer which is still cheap for what it is.
Think i'll be having a couple this weekend drink

Me being the student I am, doing Leeds is a bit expensive for me. So a night out in Beverley would do me fine, I'm free for either night!

Looks like the 12th it is. No idea about Beverly so someone will have to figure out where and when.

I'm happy to eat before I go out, but if enough people want to eat i will fall in with that if it is a fairly simply do smile

I'll give StuB and BlueYonder a nudge.
