It's that time of year again

JessicaTam and I have started thinking about the annual Xmas dinner, on the usual "Saturday before Christmas". We do understand that this may be too close to Christmas for some but we hope to see many of you there.

We've started discussing venues, and were both very happy with last years venue, Tazio, but want to know if there would be any objections to revisiting the same location for this years dinner? If not, we will start making arrangements.

Let me call my PA in the morning...

 

[straitman]

Gold please. (as in probably)

 

[jsd]

Definitely want to come along to this one, but just too early to tell at this stage if I can or not. Work will be all hands on deck so I will just have to see if the cards stack up in my favour.

 

[Hvr]

Count me in.

 

[serfty]

likely + 1

I presume that would be the morning of Dec 22nd?

Maybe you could try and arrive a little earlier than last year?

 

[Bundy Bear]

Gold please as in most likely.

The big question is where to stay since the Hilton South Wharf is leaving the Hilton chain.

I have booked there.

Rumour has it that they will honour status if you book before the name change. TBC.

 

[coriander]

Gold +1....

 

[blackcat20]

We're booked at Sofitel.

Worth a try at the very least.

 

[TomVexille]

I should be there, barring a work emergency.

 

[Buzzard]

Bronze unfortunately as we will be somewhere in the US

 

[serfty]

Booked the Park Hyatt ...

 

[Steady]

I'm Silver this far out

So no objections to visiting the same venue then
