October 21, 200718 yr he did have a hangover Somebody had to check that the Cricket Club's beer would be OK for the Saturday night.
October 21, 200718 yr t'beer was awreet at t'creeket club! Breakfast were even better at AGB's house in't morning! Big John Edited October 21, 200718 yr by Big John
October 21, 200718 yr Author As much as it pains me to admit it given that Twiggy is claiming credit for the Cricket Club idea... It is several hundred times better than the Kings Head. Cold beer Enough beer Good prices Fast Service Enough staff Staff who actually seem happy to have you there rather than you being a burden on them Could do a wee bit with regards to the layout so everybody doesn't congregate in that one area up the back - more tables/chairs in the centre further down. Not a criticism though as it was the first year. It was so much better there and I know I'm not the only one to think that - not by a long shot. Get it booked for next year NOW!
October 22, 200718 yr It was on our very short list of alternative venues to use. I called in one Saturday night & there was a kids birthday party on, I thought it was too good a venue to loose over another kids party so I booked it there & then, informed the rest of the committee later. The lack of seating & tables was something we noted on a recent visited, it'll be discussed along with the lack of a back up microphone & anything else we can think of. Booking for next year is already in hand.
October 22, 200718 yr I was very impressed with the whole Scott Trial set up, very professional indeed. Easy to find sections with spectator direction signs which was brilliant. The charity auction I enjoyed very much (even although I had to spend some money, worth every penny). A nice friendly atmosphere, well worth the trip down from the highlands! Big thanks for a brill weekend from me and the lads. Big John
