ldyjocelyn Posted July 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 Just as an FYI...From Claygary contacted me earlier in the week, and CV is also having a party at the Elephant and Castle that night. However, their's starts an hour earlier (6:30 p.m.) and they have a room reserved with a buffet. She and I decided that we could be a "separate but together" party, in that those who want to attend both could go between the two parties (since many of us either are members at both boards or have friends there). We will both need to know, though, with which party you are going to eat, as that will affect numbers on both sides.If the dinner reaches 30 people who want to eat with FCA, the manager at the restaurant said we probably would not be able to just order off the menu. However, they have a choice of three "limited menus" that we can select, with at least 5 different options for choices. Here is that menu. Soft drinks and coffee are included, as well as gratuity. (My feeling is that I would choose either the $17 or $19.50 per person menu...)I will keep you posted as things continue to develop! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KAndre Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 As all I'll want is either the Shepherd's Pie, the Chicken Pot Pie or the Fish 'n Chips, I'm good with any of 'em. I'm sticking with the FCA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimiye Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 Since my whole traveling group is dining with the FCA, then I'd better hop on the bandwagon, too! Please add me for dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PermaSwooned Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 I'm not sure where things stand now. I know the CV dinner is running into problems. As of today, the FCA list hasn't reached 20, so I'd like to add myself and artquest.. If there are changes, maybe this info could be updated. Starting to get excited here!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldyjocelyn Posted September 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 Awesome! I'll add you all to the list! I'm starting to work on a favor for all partygoers, so it is appreciated that you posted. I look forward to seeing you two (and everyone else as well)!
