I know it feels a long way off yet, but looking at the calendar for the Christmas do and (thanks yet again to terrible shifts) the only date Andy and I can do in December is Saturday 5th. I hope that with a few months notice, it'll give most folks enough time to get the date in your diaries before they get too congested with works/family parties etc. I'm still working on the location, I've got an idea in mind but need a few days to look into it properly so I shan't say too much yet in case we can't be accommodated. But if it does work out, it'll be sort of central to most of us and have accommodation on site for those who wish to stay over. I'll keep you posted as and when I have more info. Location is now confirmed as the Rhymney House Hotel, Rhymney Bridge, Rhymney, Tredegar, Gwent NP22 5QG Phone: 01685 844040 on Sat 5th Dec.
www.rhymneyhousehotel.co.uk/
I've booked for 20 people at 7.30pm - for anyone who would like to book a room to stay over, please ring the hotel direct on 01685 844040 and mention that you're part of Jan Carters party (they're holding a few rooms for us and have had enquiries about a wedding party the same day, so it would help the hotel if they know you're part of my booking).

I've spoken to the place I'd got in mind and they're holding the 5th Dec for us (rooms and tables) for a while - I'm hoping to call in over this weekend to have a meal and check the place out properly. I've have heard of them but never been there before myself so don't want to confirm until been there (any excuse for a meal out lol . I'll post up the details as soon as I've been able to check the place out
