Re: LB meet 8th October 2011 -

I will definitely be there, although not for the meal, so will catch up with you all at some point I'm sure. Will probably upgrade to Premier so will be upstairs. I'm led to believe that as a Ladbrokes employee I can get in for nothing, so if this is the case I'll upgrade on the door. It's not that I'm a snob - just that there's a better view from upstairs I think. No doubt I'll go trackside to the winners enclosure and also the parade ring too.

Details of times, dress code, drinks prices and form for pre order of drinks.
I need to phone with a time we would like to eat, as its a carvery you serve yourself for main course anyway, they will probably serve the starters and desert. I was think 5.30 to 6 everyone ok with that?
Any other questions fire away, don't leave it till the last minute please.

I have sat on me desk 12 tickets, the dirty dozen they won't know what's hit em pmsl

Re: LB meet 8th October 2011 -

Yep 5.30 will be good for us, how do we go about pre-ordering the drinky's then ? I'm wondering if we can order from the bar as he would prefer Becks and I'd prefer the old Tia Maria.

Time you updated the countdown as well hun lol.

You are not readin lol
It's for your wine and the drink to be iced and on your table when you dine rather than messing about ordering as you arrive.

Leave the timing up to you honey. We'll aim to get to the hotel about 4 - hopefully earlier but we're a bit tied to when other's get to our house before we can set off, we'll have 3 spare seats in the car if anyone wants a lift from the hotel to the racecourse.

They like to make their margins on the drinks don't they, at the moment I quite fancy wine , but on the day probably something a bit sweeter so drinks wise can we pre order 4 vodka ice for the moment (for me and Gemma)....the guys will probably want drinks from the bar anyways but that should get us started. I'll check if Jules wants to preorder anything later on tonight.

Re: LB meet 8th October 2011 -

I think its just to help you settle in tbh if we are on last minute, I have the form here to pre order and will have to send a cheque but thats not a problem I think if wine is not wanted with the meal then no worries really.
We will leave hotel about 4.30 as I said cause Nick is going straight to course I think, hopefully he will be the lat to arrive.
Raceccourse is a cock stride form hotel no need to drive xx

Re: LB meet 8th October 2011 -

Which Hotel are you on about? the hotel at the racecourse is literally 2 seconds away from the course. Or do you mean the hotel where you are staying at? (I can't remember which one it is lol)
