WENDDDDDDD well done girl you had me thinking that I had to pack me PJ´s :-D :-D
and yes you may have an extra sausage as it´s a buffet ! I didn´t notice that the price had gone up but wasn´t last year on a special if you booked in advance or something?

Sue will be good to see you I shall add you to the list !
I booked over the internet ;-) haven´t booked brekkie will do that when I get there (again ! )
I´m going to have to trip over to Chesterfield as some stage as a few of my lot hopefully are over there, if not they are in Eckington library ...this is where I could do with a car ! Might have to try and sweet talk my cuz to a day out.

Not long now

PS Joy the pub isn´t really trannies on a Friday but it was Karaoke.

I booked online after being quoted £35 more on the phone. I told the lady I spoke to that I couldn't see an option for booking breakfast online and she said I could pay for that separately when I stay there. Can I book it online now do you think?

I was only joking about sharing a room with you Uzzi - I wouldn't dream of subjecting you to the sight of me first thing in the morning lol! Only my husband has to suffer that, poor chap :-0 :-D

Thanks everyone for booking info.

Uzzi.

My lot are from around the villages in Chesterfield,one reason That Iam going there is because I want to know from the local studies library if they would lie my Family history file from now back to 1580.

Wend I wasn´t worried about you in the morning it was me at night I would have fretted about. lol I shall book my brekkie when I get there, I did recall seeing it on line but as I will only bother when you are all there I decided not to confuse ! If you see what I mean.

Sue some of mine are Chesterfield villages ie Ridgeway, Staveley Mosborough.Troway. Don´t tell anybody shhhhh I was actually born in Chesterfield *whistles whilst making sure nobody is listening in * Well I was nearly born in Ridgeway and taken to Chesterfield.
I would imagine they would love your file <3 If they aren´t interested try Eckington Library as they hold several of the archive stuff for Derbyshire there. (apparently)

It has come to my notice, and although it has taken me 8 pages to be observant that I haven´t added a time to the Saturday meet, may I say nobody else has wondered yet either.

For those just meeting for the day inc Annina and Liz etc We ..or some of us, will be at the pub by 12 midday.

Can I ask that anybody who is on the list and not making it let me know before hand please as I would like to reserve outside tables for us (they only have a few) and don´t want to take up too many or heaven forbid to few :-0

Getting very excited about seeing old friends and meeting new ones. :-D <3 :-D <3
