There are still 2 spaces left so if any latecomers wish to join the Do please post or PM me, thanks.
A little bit of bad news re the actual night itself
The restaurant e-mailed me this morning and they said it is now policy for group bookings if you user name on any internet forum has a vowel in it, or even just a capital letter, then you have to buy the host a drink of his choice

Hahah! The lounge is actually quite good and they offer a sumptuous breakfast in the main restaurant for a teensy Ł5 fee. Also the spa is quite fun!
