On a more serious note (A445..)

Can we pull out all the stops please (I thank you, I thank you) and work out if anyone is going to want afternoon teas / tables booking for Sunday lunch, or indeed numbers for bacon / beans / whatever from the menu above?  

Ta.

Yeah, we may be rallying with a big gap.  Or tootling slowly. 

Here's the menu from the heritage centre 

 

"Morning Mike, I have attached the menu. I have informed the tea on the train manager of your visit. Ideally could the guests call on 01434 221 151 and book a table in the next week to allow for staffing and catering of the party. And if they would like to choose from the menu in advance that would help us enormously. Many thanks. Lisa"

Certainly I reckon on getting a bacon butty at the least.

Just to ring folks bell (lyre)s

Hi everyone, with Twixfest just over a week away, could we get an updated list of which members plan to attend and which exact days they would like to stay?

With things usually changing over a few weeks time I just want to get a good idea about the latest numbers, being this close to the event it might be clearer to those who weren't sure before as well. Cheers!

I'll be down for the Saturday and Sunday. But staying off site.

[Schaefft]

Thanks so far, keep them coming.

[320touring]

I'll likely pop down on the Saturday for a visit, heading home then same day, but dunno exactly yet

[auntiemaryscanary]

Staying Friday & Sat night on site in a tent please.

Unsure of the Sunday drive (but definitely not gravel). Tea and bacon sarnie at the Sunday cafe please.

[aotb]

I’ll be there Friday-Sunday. Would definitely be on the gravel if we do that…

[captain_70s]

Intend to attend Fri/Sat/Sun, camping. Tea and scones at t'cafe please!

[Schaefft]

Thanks guys, I'll compile a list in the first post later just so we got an easy to access overview. Exact number don't matter all that much but its still good to get an idea.
