F Reg Xmas Awards Lunch - 6th December

Post by TimM » Tue Sep 08, 2009 4:18 pm

I know it's a bit of an early posting but I've just had a call from the Dog House and they're after a better idea of numbers for our annual awards shindig . Normally I just take a wild guess and hope I'm somewhere near right. Unfortunately in this day and age that's probably not a great way to do it so this year our hosts would like us to make bookings so they can plan for the day a bit better and let some other festively hungry customers have tables if there is room.

Hopefully we won't leave them much room to do that so please give them a call and let them know you're coming.Just say you're booking for the MGF Register Xmas Lunch on 6th December and give them your names (and/or numbers if you're booking a group). Easy.

The phone Number is 01865 390 830 or you could probably e-mail them at doghouse.frilfordheath@oldenglishinns.co.uk

The sooner the better as if everyone leaves it to the last minute then we might not have enough space this year which could lead to disappointment.

If you're new then you can find the Dog House website here - http://www.doghousehotel.co.uk/ . It's a carvery Xmas lunch with added Xmas Quiz, Regalia sales (ideal for xmas presents) , Annual award presentations and the usual festive friovolity. Traditionally it's where we put a full stop on the old year and look forward to the new with the MGF Register.

You might want to add your names here as well so that we can get some sort of idea as to numbers too.

Here's some pics from the past to whet your appetitie.....

We are booked for Lunch but have had to cancel 'The Night Before' as they will only accept Hotel Reservations for 2 Nights or more.

Geoff, that is strange because I e-mailed last week asking about room availability for Saturday night, a double room was available at £75, I did not confirm that booking until late Tuesday evening, the room was still available. I advised her I wanted to book 2 places for the Christmas lunch as well. I spoke to Monique at the Dog House as opposed to a central booking office.

I've got Dahne & Hajo, Kasper & Marion, Rolf (from the MGFIM film crew) coming also another Dutch couple, so I'll need another seven places,

We will be staying Saturday night at the Travel Inn with Sean and Claire, Soo and Andy, so if you want to join us please do so, i'll put up the location as soon as I know where it is myself. I've heard the Dog House is very uncomfortable and expensive.

Just for the record. The Premier Rack Rate for 5th is £60 for a Double plus 2x £7.50 for Breakfast and at The Dog House it is £75 including a Full English Breakfast. The DH may be a little more for a Superior/Feature Room.
The DH cannot be too bad as this will be our 4th Saturday Night with No Driving until 4 o'clock Sunday.
