When booking please state if you want any of the alternative dishes. The price is a very reasonable £18.50 per head. The meal will be served at 1.15pm and attendees are requested to arrive from midday but not earlier, please.

    The Covid situation is still very serious and we would ask Members without two vaccinations to consider the safety of other attendees before booking. We also ask attendees to be masked when not eating or drinking and to observe social distancing where possible when socialising. Happy Christmas!
