MBC Christmas Party Night Saturday 1st December 2018

[Dave DND]

Brilliant! Look forward to seeing you Ruben   

[Allan]

Hi All, I’ll be picking Ruben up from the airport on the Saturday morning and my thoughts were to go for breakfast at the Toby cavery pub at Stonebridge and then weather dependent go across to Wellsborne market and grab a few early Christmas bargains  before going to the hotel.Plan B, if it’s bad weather would be after breakfast run into Birmingham city centre instead. Anybody going to the Christmas party and wants to make more of a day of it are most welcome to join us 

[Dave DND]

I`ll be dropping my parents off in the City Centre in the morning, so may well come and join you   

[Dave C]

Count us in 

[Vanessa]

Hi everybody, I've been in touch with the hotel today and we're all up to date (everybody has paid). Check in time is from 3.00pm (it's a 12pm check out time) but you can obviously arrive earlier and use the bar, swimming pool and gym facilities. Just a reminder for those that haven't been before, it is a smart dress code. Meet in the bar from 6.30pm on wards, doors open to the room at 7.00pm and food is served from 7.30pm, see you all there 

[ruben]

great plan, see you all there,

i'm on the KL1421 arriving around 8:35, smoking and all

[Dave DND]

If anyone wants me to bring any BBi goodies up, please let me know so I can throw them in the boot for you

Calendars, Top Trumps, Stickers, Zip Buddies, Beanie Hats, Model kits (Elvis Manx & Glitterbug) - and I have a few fleeces here  (limited sizes and colours)

[Allan]

Just a heads up, we'll be meeting for breakfast on Saturday at the Toby Carvery at Stonebridge around 9 o'clockish,  after I've picked Ruben up from the airport, then across to Wellsbourne market 

[Dave DND]

Got your message Allan - see you on Saturday at some point 

[ruben]

[HughBug]

Hugh

[Doon L001]

Have a great party everyone

Cheers

Hugh

We will thanks
You need to sign off Hugh2, I thought Hugh1 wasn't coming for a moment

You don't have a passing resemblance to Robert Peston by any chance do you?

Dave, aka Spike

[HughBug]

No, sorry. I don't resemble anyone

Cheers

Hugh the 2nd

[Hugh]

I quite like having someone else to be miss identified as me but if you don’t resemble anyone your buggy creative ideas may also be one of a kind...

Dave DoonL001 has very good taste in buggy body colour and is trying to move to help gentrify us more here in theMidlands.

[Hugh]

Another joyous, friendly and memorable gathering of the usual suspects, characters and genial buggyists.

Massive thanks to all who helped set this event up and in particular Vanessa and Pam. It surely wouldn't be as civilised if arranged by some of the men...

Lucky bout of warm weather meant the MantaRay could have a run but needed a hose down when home. Nice design aspect of buggys is mud flung off rear wheels seems only to splatter the passenger seat area !



My wash over revealed a front side light cover had broken - perhaps some Birmingham oik kicked it last night in the car park - so if any of the MBC has a spare clear plastic dome they've never thrown away and it no longer fits the type of lights they have then I'd be delighted to buy it. The diameter is about 7cm. The electrics although wet are still working so I'm happy to buy just the dome or the whole unit. Else I'll splash out of a new one myself.
