Bry Nylon said:Ours is a week on Friday
We're staying at a big country house hotel in Hertfordshire. We're getting there in time for fat-boy breakfasts, then the blokes are going to go and destroy their golf course whilst wives / girlfriends go off for pampering and massages etc. (Although I think 2 of the women have elected to play golf this year). Then we'll all meet up for lunch together, and then a swim and a sauna in the afternoon. Then early evening drinks, change into dinner suits, black tie, slightly ropey Christmas dinner, make idiots of ourselves on the dance floor, then back to the bar till no one can stand up anymore, then bed. Breakfast in bed Saturday morning, then taxis home and not back at work till Sunday!!
We pay for it all ourselves by putting into a fund every month through the year, but it's worth it.

I could, of course, have decided to give the Cup game a miss, but I have my priorities in the right order, and who knows, the ticket stub from that game, combined with my Northwich one, may just come in handy...

Alex Frutos said:You saw me at the Northwich game?
Nice of you to come and say hello, I'm sure
ali jenkins said:I was about to but you were in the Burger que and i was gagging for a piss (after seeign the treatment that Baksey got i didnt want to go during the game).
Alex Frutos said:Yeah, yeah, any excuse.

ali jenkins said:Im sorry!
