Emergency (@ 67 Pall Mall) - Tues 25 Feb 2020

Post by nac »

In the spirit of trying something a bit different, who fancies bringing a blinded VP to 67 Pall Mall on Tuesday 25th Feb?

Table for 6 booked from 1800, so kick-off at 1830.

Have managed to secure the best table in the house - The Wine Library.

Just so people are aware, there's a £20/bottle corkage charge and you should probably expect dinner to come to around £50.

Sample menu here - https://www.67pallmall.com/the-london-c ... arte-menu/

The dress code is fairly relaxed - ties not required but jackets are.

The list:

1. NAC
2. AHB
3. MPM
4. IDJ
5. JDAW (permission to attend received)
6. GEAG

Reserves:
1. Christopher
2. Alex M

Will do. Might be able to get an extra (or two) around the table. I'll check...

Permission granted. And I understand that, since it isn't my husband asking, it isn't my husband's fault.

I had hoped to be able to confirm I would attend, but this is currently looking less and less likely to be possible. Reluctantly therefore, I should now step aside and let someone else take my spot.

Phil - thanks for updating.

George - assuming you're still available, you are promoted.

For placemats and seating arrangements are any attendees left-handed?

Nice job for your first placemat 👍

A3 landscape might be a challenge on that wine library table...I wonder if making it portrait and forcing the glasses into a rectangle down the side would work better? So each person would have a placemat to their side and then space for a plate in front of them?

I think most of us host the pdf on our own web server and then link to it.
