The wee buddy in the top right of the flyer is a bit off-putting, I guess he injects a bit of reality into the magic of a Christmas outing.

If I'm not mistaken that's Mr Hanky the Christmas Poo. Naughty, naughty Dowser

I'd be well up for this and happy to bring some drinks/food - along with 3 lively children, a very manipulative 15 yr old girl and the terrible twins, Jon & Connor, aged 14! They're all lovely - honest!

Any good horror story tellers out there???

Saturday 4th would be fine by me, as would almost any Saturday in December!

[RedLeader]

Awesome Mike, you're all welcome, as is as much food and drink as you can load on the kids backs

So lets start organising this. We need to decide what we want in the way of food/drink, suggestions for festive things to do and we should seriously consider a few Chrimble decorations etc.

I'm assuming we'll want at least want turkey, ham and stuffing + gravy. We could cook the turkey / ham and bring it up and reheat on the grill over the fire. Warm mulled wine will be a must - anyone know any decent recipes? You can buy battery powered LED tree lights from ebay - we could bring some of those along with some tinsel.

If we decide what all we want to bring and then divide it amongst us then we should be able to get a good dose of gear up there.

I'll start a list, everyone just cut'n'paste my list into your own thread and add/edit.

Food:
Turkey
Ham
Stuffing
Gravy

Drink:
Mulled wine

Misc:
Battery powered led Christmas lights
Tinsel
Xmas music + speakers
Something to warm mulled wine in

[MG1]

4 bottles of red wine 1 bottle of Hennessy a few chopped oranges and some cinnamon sticks.
