Well, that time of year has come again, and the FF team has decided that for 2013, we will be holding the Xmas meal at The Grange Inn, Grange Park, Northampton.

The venue is conveniently located just off J15 of the M1 - with a choice of 5 hotels, 2 of which are within staggering distance of the venue [Campanile & Holiday Inn Express]

We will be allocated our own area of the pub, but in addition there are a few added extras. The choice of menus is either from the Xmas Fayre Menu [£11.99 for 2 courses, £13.99 for 3 courses] OR from the Main Menu BUT I can get 20% off BOTH menus.

In addition to this, they will be running a disco from 8pm until closure at midnight.

Also, and yes there is an added bonus - everyone can sign up to the Marstons website - link here and this allows you to have a free drink!!!

For those that are coming earlier on in the day, it is planned for us to have a FF photoshoot - of course, details to follow, and this is subject to weather and the dark nights drawing in - oh joy :rolleyes:

Due to the nature of the event, I will be requesting deposits off everyone who is coming - £10 per person and payable to me direct via Paypal - which can be used against your meal that night. I still need to confirm pre-orders as well - , especially on the Xmas Fayre menu.

But that's not all!! - Oh yes, for every 5 people that pay their deposit, the forum will put £25 behind the bar..... this could get messy!

Watch this space for updates - but the next stage is to get the menus linked to :)
 

Main Menu - 20% off - is here

Xmas Fayre menu - 20% off as well - Clicky below:​



Childrens Menu - also 20% off ---> :)

UPDATE 19/11/12

Emails have gone out to all attendees showing above.

I have also set the time to arrive between 6pm and 7pm - that gives everyone an hour or so to get there, have a drink and chat - before sitting down to order.


Hotel options are as follows:

Holiday Inn Express 0.9mi ~£45
Campanile 0.9mi ~£41.65
Travelodge 1.2mi ~£35.75
Premier Inn 2.3mi ~£39
Hilton 1.9mi ~£54
(Prices for the night of the 1st December 2012 - as at 10th September 2012 - the Forum is not responsible for any price increases, these are just guide prices only)

The venue is very family friendly, plus I know all the management/team, so hopefully we can all make this a night to remember :slayer:

REMEMBER TO CHECK BACK REGULARLY FOR UPDATES

The Hilton Northampton currently have the 'The Great Getaway' discount active. I believe this is only active until midnight tonight (not too sure)

These are the discounted prices:
Double Hilton Guest Room - £54
Double Deluxe - £66
King Hilton Suit - £78

Twin Double - £54
Twin Double Deluxe - £66

Do remember this is a 5* hotel as well so seems great value for money!

(It appears there is also a £5 parking fee)
 
Oh, I have now added it to Facebook events - link at top of the page - although I do realise the attendees on FF / FB probably won't match up :D

I shouldnt think we will get much snow, so anything will do, make sure its a fiat though ;)

No doubt it will be FIAT may be 500. We dont 500 in India. It was biggest failure due high pricing. FIAT launched 500 in India as CBU so the high price tag.

I am not completely aware of traffic rules of UK. Any suggestions?
