South Beers Christmas Shenanigans... DEC @ The Prince Regent

them young arty types is even more internet backward than me right now. we should find 'em and for coerce them gently to come for sure.

cheers corny, piggy backing on someone's unsecured wifi until my broadband is connected (hopefully today) so for some reason it wouldn't let me post messages. now it does, obviously.

No idea what to do for SS, if it's a fiver I may just raid poundland or something.

Are we definitely having a Secret Santa for this?

I don't do (read can't afford) presents

I neither give nor receive gifts at christmas time. for now.

so the rest of you can do what you like!

Dare quam accipere

Can't you cunts push it back to the 22nd for me? Well selfish!

remember michael knight one man can make a difference...

unless you want a south beers xmas do pushed back in which case you'll just have to lump it...

the people are speaking pisti and the majority want the 15th...

Sounds good to me!

Boys ahoy

Would love to but won't know for sure for a few days, 15th would be best if I can make it.

I think you might have to limit to 50, health and safety and all that.

Feck. I am out. I have to go to fecken Ipswich for work. Ball bags.

At the moment, we're being offered a dining room (for dining) and then the front room for drinking / socialising / bright times, which means people who don't want to eat, can come and join us and we can throw them scraps from the table.

There's a minor snag in the deal, but Corny and I are going bottom that out at Souths tonight

Feck. I am out. I have to go to fecken Ipswich for work. Ball bags.

That is unfortunate.. My parents live about 30 minutes from Ipswich and when I'm back I try to avoid it at all costs..

Okay good people, spoke to Snowy, and the situation re: South's XMAS has changed a tincey wincey bit.

The Prince Regent are giving us TWO whole rooms upstairs, all for us cycling folk, for no charge.
BUT THEY HAVE PUT THE PRICE OF THE FOOD UP! So its not £11 for two courses its now £19 for two or £23 for three. But remember THIS WILL BE A PROPER XMAS DINNER, not just burgers and chips, see the menu options below. We will need to know by TUESDAY 9TH DECEMBER, what your food choices are, so please pm snowy or myself with your options.
Also this price hike doesn't just affect us, its across the board for all the Regents customers.

Now if this proves too much for you, just come down and drink with us, before during or after we eat as Multigrooves will be spinning some Bright Timeage, and we want, nay, need the whole big messy South Beers Crew in attendance.

Remember Christmas isn't Christmas, without getting stuffed with friends, loved ones and people you ride bikes with. Send us your menu options, whether two or three courses and we'll turn this mother out....

Starters

Soup of the day
Chicken liver parfait, with onion marmalade and toast
Spinach, tomato and cheddar quiche with rocket
Home cured Gravalax with dill and mustard
Pea, broad bean, feta and rocket salad
Artichoke vinaigrette

**Main Courses **
Coq au vin with mash potato and green beans
Wild mushroom risotto with Parmesan
Pan fried salmon, warm crushed potato salad with tomato, black olives and sauce Vierge
Beef Bourguignon with celeriac mash and green beans
Confit duck leg, dauphinoise potato, red cabbage and red wine jus
Christmas turkey with all the trimmings

Puds
Crème brûlée
Chocolate brownie with Jude’s pistachio ice cream
Plumb and Armagnac tart with Jude’s hazelnut ice cream
English and French cheese board with homemade chutney (£3.00 supplement)

why do christmas menus always think that the only thing vegetarians eat is fucking mushroom risotto? i'm staging another militant veggie protest* and not going.

*from ireland.

fluff, when you get back from ireland, head to the bonnington cafe in vauxhall, if you haven't already been, highly recommended vegan/vegetarian place.
then you'll have no need to stage militant veggie protests, because everything on the menu would be vegetarian...

A roast I don't have to cook my self, count me in
