I'm thinking we should pass of the beefeater this year. We had a few complaints after last years meal :(
Anyone interested in a few beers in the evening? I might book a travel lodge or something :)
Get some dates sorted out and even i may turn up.

Drinks sounds good.
If you want to book a Saturday night in Plymouth or Exeter for a group of people near to crimbo we will need to commit to numbers ASAP.

Well I think it should be Plymouth area again as that is central. :nod: But not Beefeater again - it was shocking last year! :no: Oh and the best places are being booked up now so let's crack on, only 95 days til Xmas. :thumbs:

How about Oceana and a kebab :D Sounds like an ideal christmas do to me.
Is their an harvester in plymouth as they are normally pretty good.
Ross S14
20-09-2010, 22:38
Not sure :no: but it's the same sort of cheap chain as Beefeater isn't it? The Harvester in Exeter is :hurl:
Chriscooke

Strange. Ours is really good:nod:

Yeah I was, but house buying has come to a halt until I know what I'm doing with my life :wack:

There is a harvester :nod: Also loads of other places that do food :D
Oceanea sucks... although I'm probably getting old :(

Sounds like your a man in the know. Where is suitable for us to meet/eat seeing as most will be driving?
Oceana was awesome compared to what we have in taunton. Know what you mean about feeling old though :(

Old Orleans in the former Warner Village? Def good food, bit expensive though. Plenty of parking. :nod:
Old Orleans?!?!?! But there is a Nandos next door... why would you go to Old orleans!!! :D
There is a pub just around the corner... I forget its name, does decent food :) Also a holiday Inn next door for those wanting to stay :nod: Its in between Oceana :ghey: and the Barbican :D
I would say stay at mine, but I have one parking space so epic parking pain!

I will be going to this, wherever it ends up. I have nothing useful to add though :(
There is a pub just around the corner... I forget its name, does decent food :)
That'd be the China House :P
Geeze, HE'S ALIVE!!! :D ;)
I love Nando's! (not sure if it's suitable for a large party like Old Orleans is though.)
parking in the warnervillage will be shite especialy for a group of us! yea china house is quite nice, small car park tho. there is a harverster in plympton, and loadsa carvery pubs dotted about, toby carvery near roborough have a quite big car park.
theres always route 38 although its been done to death and most ppl r sick of it, ???????
Chriscooke
22-09-2010, 21:00
Route 38 is class but not really a Christmas type place imho :(

Parking should be ok in Warner Village. :confused: Most 200s (even just slightly lowered) wont get over the ridiculous speed bump at the entrance to China House. Good food though. Nandos isn't practical really, space-wise - Old Orleans is a good choice I think; would prob get my vote. :nod: The Jack Rabbit pub up in Crownhill is very nice and has a decent-sized car park but prob a good idea to not get too deep into Plymouth, thinking of the Cornwall and Somerset lot not necessarily knowing the area well.
We have had a table of 20 in nandos before :nod:
China house would be the best of the choice, old orleans doesnt cut the mustard when there is a nandos next door :no:
Not sure how many from Somerset are going to come? I think they are having a curry night :D which i'll go along to as well :nod:
Geeze, HE'S ALIVE!!! :D ;)
:wave:
Indeed I am :)
Your issue with China House is that it has a rather severe speed hump going into the car park - might be worth investigation how much that would inhibit getting some of the lower cars in there.The food & venue are however both awesome.
Oceanea sucks... although I'm probably getting old :(
nahh its just shit.
and if channie brings his trannie he could put loads of wood in the back and then make a ramp over the speed bump @ china house. :P

Just use bags of compost/sand, they do they job really well.
Depending on my schedule i might see if i can make this.

Right, who's gonna make the calls and organise this then? I'm happy to do it again this year if people want. :thumbs: Any more suggestions for venues?
Chriscooke
07-10-2010, 23:12
Have we actually decided on a venue yet? I think the beefeater is a non-starter due to the feedbackfro las year:nod:
We'll have to get something sorted soonish though as I would suggest the meal should be quite early in december to avoid all the christmas partys etc :nod:
Ross S14
07-10-2010, 23:15
^^ My thoughts also. Beefeater def a no-no on last year's performance. :wack:
Chriscooke
07-10-2010, 23:17
Can you tell that the batteries in my keyboard are going flat:wack: I think we need to do a short list of places and do a poll :nod:
Chriscooke
08-10-2010, 23:29
Bump. Come on ladies. Any more suggestions in and around plymouth? We'll end up at mcdonalds at this rate:wack:
Ross S14
08-10-2010, 23:32
I didn't think we'd get many more suggestions :wack: that's why I said someone should make some calls now to check availability in the places already suggested. :nod:
Chriscooke
08-10-2010, 23:39
You could well be right. I don't care where it is to be honest. I don't mind helping to organise this but I have little to know knowledge of plymouth as others will confirm:wack:

When you say "down this way" do you mean redruth? It may be a little too far down for some of the exeter/devon lot as you say:nod:
