Re: Lancashire Meet??
that would be so funny - have you seen how many of us there are - you would have to show them your award at customs and have the paparazzi there too.

Cheers Keith and lol. Good reconaissance.

Right ive just spoke to a lad called Lee and he said that someone has been in asking about the expats meet and done a reccie so thankyou.
Hi Cath, It was Keith, the bar area holds around 150 people and is open plan with a raised area on one side, and the eating area is really big. It was Lee who Keith spoke to, said it would be no problem to hold a meet there. Keith noticed that there is nothing for kids to do so some parents might wanna bring some things from home in case they get bored!!!
Lee did say you can phone ahead if you know how many want to eat, or you can phone individually the number is..01204 698877. Hope this helps....see you there
Lol xx

Re: Lancashire Meet??

asically he can put a buffet on for five to 7 quid ish a head or we can just choose to stay in the bar and go off for food in the restaurant bit if individually want which i think is a BETTER IDEA PERSONALLY.
The last time i tried organising one with food it was a nightmare and that was only for about 14 people!!
Basically get there a little early if you want to eat or order bar food or sit down after/during the meet, BASICALLY WHATEVER SUITS YOU ALL THE BEST.
Its the easiest way i can guarantee everyone will be happy.
I asked about free food but no..........
The bar is generally pretty quiet at the weekend when no matvch is on so we are ok there
hope this helps
see you all there

Thank you for whoever has done the rekkie - unless its another meet using the same place.
Huston - I have a problem - I may be a little late due to double booking. I hadnt realised I was meant to be away - will try to get back as fast as can and will post the labels to someone so you have them at the start of it all. But just letting you all know - I maybe late. Bit peeved off really - but cant change it as have put her off 3 times already and we have no other weekends free before we go.[/QUOTE]
Nice one Cath...

Re: Lancashire Meet??
Hi Nic
We haven't got anything about a CO yet but we have done med's and pcc, but I'm not to bothered when that get's sorted. Having said that Are removals are going end of this month Air freight half way through April then we go 14th May, so there is time for me to get all wound up again, I think I'l just have this weekend off from stressing, start again Mon...
I'm just so chuffed that they have received it cause I could not go through the whole cutting and paste of all the passport pages ect again...
