    Christmas Arrangements

    Would anyone be interested in having a meet before Christmas, maybe a dinner somewhere? Any ideas or anyone interested? Add your name if you might be up for it and we can decide best location date etc.

    Having had some experience of booking Team events for xmas we'd need to book ASAP.

    I vote for either Tin Tins (Brindley Place) or Bamboo Garden (nr Hippodrome) in the centre of Brum (great Chinese food) or for the Rose & thingy pub wot we have been to before - good parking and good food (near Cov).

    I also feel it unfair to expect peeps further away to come to 1 event so I think it might be easier to sort out more localised ones?

    Jen, would you like to organise the Midlands?

    I will have a go at organising Midlands, never done this before, but always willing to try. I will start up a midlands Christmas thread for our lot and take it from there.

    I'd vote for the Rose & Thingy because of the parking. Food's good too.

    There is a fab chinese restaurant just outside of Brum (Nechelles area) with its own huge car park and it seats 250, food is great too, all the Chinese go there so it must be good!

    Agreed, maybe we need to decide how much we are all willing or able to spend.

    Not at all, my Husband is Chinese and you soon get to know that the restaurants that have mainly Chinese customers are serving more authentic food. The Chinese restaurants that are full of English people are a bit more limited in their menu's.
