The X-mas markets are better to see in the dark. For this reason and the fact we are staying in brum for drinks etc afterwards I suggest we meet up on Saturday at around 4pm. This will also ease the parking situation as the "shoppers" will start leaving.


Saturday:

4pm - Meet @ Brum Centre (telephone numbers can be exchanged to make sure we all have contact - fb is also a good method if required).

From here we shall explore the markets and then head to some bars for some drinks to warm up and enjoy the evening. From here we can decide what we do.

Sunday:

12pm - Bowing at Star City if people would like to do this

2pm - Nando's at Ford Dunlop - This will allow people to get home early after the meal but not have the meal too early in the day.

Any amendments please shout up - The days are sorted so things can always be moved around slightly if needed

As i said it might be better if we meet at the hotel and have a few designated drivers so we can have drinks.

Was looking at hotels last nite, not so many cheep deals left now and most in Brum City centre are only pricy ones left

Would you do B&B Dave?

That plan sounds good to me!!

Sheldon! a bit far out isnt it? What about Streetly. Theres a Toby Carvery across the car park for drinks and food as well. Right next to Sutton Park also. Post code is B73 6SP

Chris already pre-booked Jack ages ago. He stopped there as I used to live around the corner so he come over. I've now moved but he still has his booking.

Has everyone booked hotels? I can help out finding accommodation for those who need it.

Much prefer the new times for bowling and eating out. Now I don't have to rush after my night shift

I have found an inn keepers lodge for £42 by the NEC

Very much looking forwards to this. Not very far away now! It feels like ages since I've seen you all.

Can people send me their updated mobile numbers just in case we lose each other or people experience traffic etc
