Scottish Parliament Lunch

Sandra · Post by **Sandra** » 16 Nov 2006, 22:42

Just to gauge who is interested in a Parliament lunch and would before Christmas be best or after??

(Porty I know you will be a yes whenever is decided

)

Porty · Post by **Porty** » 17 Nov 2006, 11:04

I'm definitely in. Think we may need a recruitment campaign. I think Epykat and Scoop will be up for it.

What about PoP's 50th (ssshhhh) birthday, which is Friday Dec 22nd, we could drown our sorrows over Option A being the chosen one.

Don't think restaurant is open that day and I don't reckon Mrs PoP would allow him to come anyway.

She may. After all she is going to be spending the entire day with him a couple of days later.

Izzie · Post by **Izzie** » 19 Nov 2006, 21:09

Can I come?

Jamesie · Post by **Jamesie** » 19 Nov 2006, 21:11

Its a long, long time since I went to a POL event - if its the 22nd (and there is still space) count me in!

Sandra · Post by **Sandra** » 19 Nov 2006, 21:39

Bearcub wants to also come along this time.

Late Jan/Early Feb would suit me best what with the elections looming

and a Friday is the only suitable day - hope this suits most people. Might be the last trip via me.

Jamesie, don't think it will be 22nd as think Parly will be on half day/closing early as its so near Christmas - I won't be in, I hope!

yes indeed.

Friday 19 January would be good. I believe one or two of us have a birthday around that date.

Buncha goats and queeries, eh?? Mighta known! I'm a goat too. But you'll have to count me out ... I'm planning to be in London for a week around then ... Spamalot IS on the menu however.

Early Feb best for me and thank you for allowing me to come along

ooooooooooooooooooopppppppppsssssssssssss forgot eypkat and scoop - might have to be two lunches at this rate.

bellybabe · Post by **bellybabe** » 20 Nov 2006, 22:02

If it's Feb, I'm interested, depending on available child care...

- I've only been gone for 5 minutes and I'm forgotten already........

Don't panic Sandra. If there's no room Scoop and I can meet up with you later - if only to tell you all how bad you were. I think Mr E might actually have banned me from any more 'lunches' after the last one. Then again. since when have I paid any attention to him

Maria · Post by **Maria** » 18 Dec 2006, 11:03

Unfortunately looks like I have to drop out of this one Sandra.

Hope for your sake there'll be other opportunities after the elections *fingers crossed*.

I was sorry to hear that Marya

I am unable to do 19th January so will look at booking 12th/26th Jan if there are no objections/my boss allows me the half day!!!

Sandra · Post by **Sandra** » 09 Jan 2007, 12:14

Have booked Friday 26th January at 12.30 for 10 people.

Hope this is suitable. Sorry it took me a bit of time to come back with a definite date.

BC is going to come along this time.

Can you let me know if you are a definite. Thanks.

This was the most up to date list before Christmas.

Sorry Sandra, I can't do Fridays anymore

Izzie · Post by **Izzie** » 09 Jan 2007, 13:31

Sandra sorry I have to bow out

I have to go to the ongology dept at the western that day sorry

Porty · Post by **Porty** » 09 Jan 2007, 13:34

That's a pity you two,

perhaps Epy and scoop can step in?

Izzie · Post by **Izzie** » 09 Jan 2007, 13:37

I would rather go out for lunch

Scoop · Post by **Scoop** » 09 Jan 2007, 21:14

Count me in, and Epy too, although it might be a bit difficult for Epy to get there on time. She could be fashionably late.
