I take it everyone who said they were going before is still going??

Salsa + Prince William
Sparks124 + Nicky
Laura + Steve
Me + Steve (Flib)
Tracy and Mark
Tracy and Ian
Sharon and Neill

We don't have to pre-book meals as long as the numbers are below 15.
Mark and i are still coming, prince charming anmd salsa are too, on hols this week.

Sorry can't think of a nice pub near there, anyone else have any ideas??

I don't seem to have any suggestions about where to meet before the meal so for easiness sake, why don't we all meet for the meal at 8pm. If anyone does want to meet beforehand for a drink, PM me and we'll sort it out that way. Otherwise we'll see everyone there!!

For those of you who don't know where it is, its Pepitos, on London Road in Derby (opposite the Derby Royal Infirmary). If anyone wants more detailed instructions, again PM me with which direction your coming from and I'll give you directions.

See you Saturday!!

Good Luck with the meal, I would have liked to have come and meet you all and see how far all of you have got with the migration process, but I work away most weekends so I wish you all good luck.

It's a shame you can't make it! How far are you with your application? And where do you hope to go?

There's a pub just down from Pepitos on London Road called the Crown & Cushion - no idea what its like, looks OK. Steve and myself will be in there from about 7.15/7.30 if anyone wants to join us for a quick few before the meal. Meal is still at 8.00!!

See y'all tomorrow!! :-)

Round the back of Pepitos there is a public car park. Yeah your probably right about being left alone in the pub...our patio is getting far too small for all the victims...i mean guests...that stop at ours :-)
