christmas 2013

Cod and MUSHY PEAS PLEASE! and a PINT of course. Oh how I wish I could be there. BUT we are spending Xmas with our So Paul and the grandkids in Virginia USA he will be home for almost the first time in 20+ years in the US Navy. John Crump OldburstillaBRit. Parker, Colorado USA
 
oldbrit...cod and mushy always will always hit the spot..living here in south Texas we don't get much chance of that meal.l can always go to a specialty shop and get a can of mushy peas put the cod is another story...its a cold water fish and we have no cold water living this far south, oh! well we can always dream..but l would trade a pint for a nice cuppa....Brenda
 
Look forward to seeing you too Kathy. As I said in a earlier post, it's a little get together. no raffle or anything
 
Seems a shame that an event which was becoming a regular part of the forum year will not be taking place this year, therefore I would like to suggest we arrange to meet up at The Bull for a Xmas drink. I regret I would be un-able to make the 21st December, and would suggest the 14th, but appreciate others may prefer the later date, time is short but it's not too late.
Anyone interested.

Colin
 
We should be good for the 14th Colin.

Maybe you could mention this meet on your BHF facebook forum Colin
 
I'll be there for definite. I might even auction off a special item for the forum funds.
 
I think I can make it on the 14th and I even have a nice new Alton Douglas book for a raffle that I was given as a gift, problem being I already have it. So count me in if it's on.
 
Oh, its on Phil and thank you for your raffle present. :encouragement:

I think I can make the 14th (but not the 21st), will try to donate a painting to the raffle if you are holding one. Eric
 
That's a shame. We are already going elsewhere on the 14th. Hope you all enjoy yourselves
 
Sorry but that weekend is a "full on" pre Christmas family get together and we go away on the following weekend.
:-(
 
ok, peeps, there will be a meet up at THE BULL,1 PRICE ST, B4 6JU. ON SATURDAY , 14 th DECEMBER.
There will be a raffle and one of the prizes is a lovely framed picture of the Bull Ring circa 1950s by Robert k Calvert and Cookie has promised one of his fantastic paintings ( thank you Eric ) plus plenty of other prizes.
Turn up on the day from 12.30 onwards and lets have the best Christmas meet yet.
Don't forget that the venue is right on the doorstep of the Jewellery Quarter so plenty of time for shopping.
See you all there, bring a friend, everyone is very welcome.
Thank you, Postie.
