Thread: NEW YEAR DRINKS

Post 25: Posted by Colin Wouldham on Friday, Jan 21, 2011 at 11:22

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...

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.




Post 13: Posted by Colin Wouldham on Friday, Jan 07, 2011 at 15:21

Is Mr Page going to be able to grace us with his presence (and shirt) on the 15th? Haven't noticed him replying anywhere?




Post 12: Posted by Peter Swain on Friday, Jan 07, 2011 at 13:57

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.

I will be ok for the 15th, although I will come along later in the evening around six, after the football.




Post 9: Posted by Peter Swain on Tuesday, Jan 04, 2011 at 13:04

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...




Post 7: Posted by Andy Redman on Monday, Jan 03, 2011 at 13:35

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.




Post 6: Posted by Peter Swain on Sunday, Jan 02, 2011 at 15:03

Happy new year everyone. I will be there to take another Aussie bashing about the ahes!




Post 5: Posted by Matthew Bulpitt on Sunday, Jan 02, 2011 at 14:24

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! :-)




Post 3: Posted by Richard Webber on Friday, Dec 31, 2010 at 19:02

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




Post 2: Posted by Colin Wouldham on Friday, Dec 31, 2010 at 18:05

I'll be there - wherever it is!




Post 1: Posted by Matthew Bulpitt on Friday, Dec 31, 2010 at 14:48

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
