I wish I could verify how the evening ending Will but I have an hour gap where I can't remember anything. I recall eating a nice meal, then Bevan getting sambucas in, then a doggy bag appearing for Monica...no idea why...then I'm at the bus stop! Can anyone with a better memory and capacity for sambuca remember leaving? Were we embarrassing?
Sounds like it got a little messy!
I can't even remember leaving Rich and haven't a clue if I paid or said goodbye or anything - a very sore head this morning! I have a feeling that Mr Bevan being in charge of the drinks orders was not a good idea, I seem to remember sambuca becoming part of the evening? If I owe anyone any cash please let me know.
Guys, really sorry and embarrassed, in my haste to leave and nurse Monica I didn't leave cash for the meal, let me knw who I owe and how much and I will transfer accordingly...
I will try to be there around 4 as well.
I'll be there as early as poss! I don't get many free passes...
i will be there around 4 if anyone fancies a slightly earlier start - catch the second half commentary of the 3pm kick offs
Football at FRC (Match starts at 5pm) Then Star of India 8pm - Walking distance from FRC and walking distance home for Ricky and Richard. Del will be joining us after Millwall See you all on Saturday
apologies all, I will be there and very much looking forward to it.............. whats all this eldorado business monica?
Cheers Derek - Will do
Matt, If you have not already booked a curry house, I can highly recommend The Oval Brasserie in Sidcup, two minutes drive from FRC.Tel: 020 8308 0273/4
I've had an email from the man from Eldorado and he will be there next week.
Is Mr Page going to be able to grace us with his presence (and shirt) on the 15th? Haven't noticed him replying anywhere?
I thought it was the England and Wales (and SA...)Cricket Board? Perhaps our token Taffy can confirm? Looking forward to drowning my sorrows under a torrent of abuse next weekend! The awful reality is starting to sink in...
Not a great time for Daniel to switch at all. However switching from being a welsh cricket supporter to an Aussie? There's probably not much difference in the standard between the two. From Eltham's new 12th man, if selected. Splinters
I will be ok for the 15th, although I will come along later in the evening around six, after the football.
Very funny! Not quite 18 years yet though! You can see how surprised I am by the whole situation. You will all have to work hard to outdo the Aussie bashing I have already had from Elliott, especially while at the MCG for the 3rd day. Daniel has not chosen a good time to defect from being a pom!
@ Skip, glad you're prepared for "Aussie Bashing Saturday", as the social is now to be called. Just a shame you can't spell the tournament correctly. But then again, it's so long since you've held them...
Sorry for delay in response .... just come back from New Year in Brighton. Unfortunately we are already attending the first in a whole series of 50th birthday bashes on the 15th so won't be able to join you for a beer and curry. Apologies.
Happy new year everyone. I will be there to take another Aussie bashing about the ahes!
Brilliant guys - FRC + Curry is a favourite. So far I've had replies from Bill and Bevan! Richard and Ricky, Colin, Splinters and myself. I'm sure Swainy will be up for it too. This is looking a firm booking then. I will book us a curry for about 8pm. I have been to the Star of India before? Any other favourites from the Eltham residents?? Cheers everyone
Count me in, not sure I'm looking forward to watching the football though! :-)
15th is great for me wherever its held. Footscray definately has espn as I watched Charltons game on espn down there the other week! Have a great New Year everyone
I'll be there - wherever it is!
Okay boys... Postponed Christmas drinks have become New Year - New Season - Ashes retained drinks!!! Saturday 15th January. Venue to be confirmed, West Ham v Arsenal at 5pm, then Curry. Does that rule out Harbejan Bill? Is Bromley the most central? Does Footscray have ESPN then curry in Eltham?? Please add to the thread so I can book asap. Cheers everyone - have a great New Years Eve Bulpers
