Cambridge Meet - Round Three

Cambridge Meet - Round Three
The summer has been and gone and that beautiful day on Newnham Common is but a distant memory......
So, is it about time for another Cambridge (and surrounds) get together?
Thinking vaguely about the end of October or beginning of November. Inside. Preferably with an open fire and amusement for those wanting to bring small people.
Any takers?

Hiya Bundy
Count us in.
I'm sure Gary & Tracy will want to go as well.
What dates & venue did you have in mind?

Re: Cambridge Meet - Round Three
Right, well, what dates can anyone do? I can do pretty much any date between now and Christmas except the last weekend in October.
Venue? Erm, where do we want to be? In Cambridge again, or go back to Bury St Eds as before (good for the kids)?
Suggestions on a postcard, please!

Might be easier to find out what dates you are able to do - busiest person gets to pick the date! I am not, therefore I can fit in around everyone else's plans. It's pot luck with Mr B - depends if he's working or not. We can make it November if it's easier.....

Do you know of any such places in the Cambridge area?

We can do 23/24 Oct but not 30/31 ( I have a weekend of pampering and drunken debauchery at a spa with my girlfriends ) 6/7 Nov also Ok. The Rushbrook Arms at Bury St Eds seemed to tick all the boxes last time but if there is a place with similar facilities elsewhere we'll travel. We can even bring our visas to show off this time

The Rushbrook Arms did work well last time, fantastic for the kiddies. Al - are you willing/able to travel to Bury St Eds?
We can also do 23/24 or 6/7. Make it a Sunday and Mr B can come too.

Re: Cambridge Meet - Round Three
Hi Bundy
As Graham said, you can count us in. Not too worried about the dates as we are reasonably flexible. But having the meet on a Sunday would be a good idea.
Can you let us know when you have something fixed.
Thanks, Gary

Looking like either Sunday 24 Oct or Sunday 7 Nov at the moment......
Will PM you once we've got it sorted.

Re: Cambridge Meet - Round Three
Bit of a hike, but if Graham and Sara are going then we will more thann likely be up for it.
I will check the dates with Tracey and get back to you.
But I am sure it will be worth it to drool over the visas!!!!

Hi Bundy
BSE wasn't too far for us and the grub & venue was good.
Took us a little over an hour to get there.
Any dates are fine with Sara and I apart from the weekend of November 19th, but would hope it would be before then.
Let us know when you can, we'll bring or go with Gary & Tracy.

Re: Cambridge Meet - Round Three
I believe it will be our turn to take you both by then Graham.
Spoke to Tracey and she would prefer the 7th Nov as we have quite a hectic October!
