South Coast Christmas Lunch

[FastLaneGirl]

Well, there were quite a few SC'ers at the Brighton hospice run, and we decided we definitely needed more food, more cars & plenty more laughs.

So I stupidly promised to see about a post Xmas meet up. Lunch, a decent drive out, generally eating & gassing as only we can do so well Location TBC, but suggestions welcome for somewhere we can easily access.

Everyone welcome, in any car, the more the merrier!

Possible dates:

Wed 29th Dec
Thur 30th Dec
Sun 2nd Jan

If folk fancy it, let me know what date is best & have a think about where we could meet. I'm thinking a BIG roast lunch!

[Stedman]

[geofflowe]

Put me down as a definite! Sunday 2nd would clash with the Kent meet which attracts 250+ people so we could possibly pick a different date or organise an S/C hoon to the Kent meet?

[FastLaneGirl]

Will try & avoid the 2nd, but put it as an option as some people may go back to work on 28/29th). The fools! But if most can make the week, 29th will be the best

Food suggestion today from Funk - a pub in Findon with decent car park, but more importantly they serve you a slab of fillet steak & a red hot rock so you can cook it as you like it If you can tempt me with better than that feel free!

[Funk]

Yep, hot rocks at The Black Horse in Findon - can't fault it.

Deffo down for this, the 29th i think is probably best for me too, but i can do the other days if it is decided. Put me down for two :P

This isn't from the Black Horse, but it's exactly the same:



Properly good food, and pretty reasonable pricing too. There's a Christmas menu at £20/head for 3 courses.

Depending on day, myself and mrs and master would be up for this. I love those hot rocks.

[Funk]

There's also a Christmassy roast turkey + trimmings option at £25/head for those who want a more traditional meal..



Might need to get an idea on numbers PDQ. I know that a) they fill up fast, especially if it's a large number of people and b) they're booking ahead for the Christmas period. 29th works for me too.

Let's get a list going, assuming the 29th?
