Wonderful do, many thanks for a good spread, and especial thanks to the lad who picked up the old bird - from most of us!
Enjoy the peace and quiet, not many birds are quite so quiet.

just got back:)..brilliant meet:thumbsup:thanks Froth, Brian and Ian for a great buffet ..was nice to meet everyone again:):)
 
Apologies for my none attendance, but ill health prevented it. I have to pay particular thanks and admiration to Frothblower ( Chris ) for putting his regard and commitment to TBHF before his love for his football team. I salute you Chris . Max
 
Have had a brilliant afternoon meeting everyone at the Lad, mom and dad thoroughly enjoyed it too.It's nice to put faces to names and the company was great! Think it was probably a better choice than the match for Blues fans given the score lol.
Thanks to Chris, Brian and Ian for organising it, the food was great.
Hope to make the next one too.
Sue, Ann and Pete.
 
Great time lovely Buffet and good company, only snag is I left my hat there, hope it gets handed in for it has sentimental value. Thanks Chris and Brian again for a good buffet and a great outing. Eric
 
Cookie, I'm sure someone has it safe for you, it was there when we left, so Chris or Jim will know where it went.
Sue
 
im glad everyone had a good time.

sorry to say i have a rotten cold at the moment so was unable to come :cry:
 
Great meet the pub was amazing a "real" pub! Brilliant to meet old friends and new:). Lovely to meet sistersue and her Mom and Dad. Chris and Brian the buffett was lovely I had seconds!! I also had a nice rest from doing the raffle thanks to Chris and Cathy. My real treat was seeing MikeG and Mo well done Mo for driving Mike over! xx. Thrilled I won one of Eric's paintings on the raffle (glad it wasn't the bird) I bet the lad who won it will have the last laugh when he sells it on ebay:D!! Once again great meet now I can't wait till the next one. It was just what I needed a good chat and laugh with friends:):)....thank you all..xxx

It was fantastic to see Mike and Maureen there, also meeting sistersue61 and smithy for the first time.
Thank you to everyone for supporting the raffle, It raised £100 +.
Don't worry about your hat Eric it is in Frothy's safe keeping.

all the best

Well I have just woke up after a quick nap. I was so exhausted. I'm not used to being in the front line like I was today
Can I thank everyone for coming today, I was so happy it went so well. The day went so quick and I was so disapointed I didn't get chance to talk to you all much.
It was great to see all my mates I have made over the last few years but my greatest joy was to see my mates Mike G and Mo, you made my day:)
Eric your hat is safe:)
PS.
I did not take one photo, :(sorry
