The Good Food Show NEC Birmingham Saturday 29th November

Due to popular demand we are organising a revisit to the famous 'Good Food Show' at the NEC, Birmingham.

The event is on from 26-30 November 2008 and our planned attendance date would be Saturday 29th November.

This is a great day out costing from £18.50 per ticket and offers the chance to take in shows from top chefs and generally experience two of the great delights in life-food & drink!

The plan would be to catch a train from Northampton station direct to the NEC and spend the day there - (a tip there are free samples in the wine area so bring your own plastic glass or you can get a glass one there to wear around your neck!)

Contact Jess if you are interested in attending (NB interest has been limited)

Cabaret Derngate Theatre 24th - 29th November Starring Wayne Sleep Tickets range from £28.00 - £33.00. Tickets are selling out fast and it would be better to go on 25th or 26th November as there seem to be more tickets. For more info see Derngate Website If interested please Contact Jess by Wed 12th November

The Clothes Show Live NEC Birmigham Saturday 6th December Tickets cost £24.00. You can book online at Clothes Show Live If interested Contact Jess and we can arrange meeting points etc.

The Wizard Of Oz Derngate Theatre Friday 12th December (other possible dates) Performance is at 7.15pm. Seats cost £18 / £20

You will all know the story but a stage version would be worth watching, bit of a twist on the idea of going to the pantomine which had been suggested.

Having researched some dates the best option seems to be Friday 12th December as this currently has quite a few seats in the stalls and dress circle, most other dates only have upper circle seats.

Best seats are in the stalls at £20 (row G / H)

We will need to book quickly or these will go also so contact Andy by the end of the week if you are interested in going.

Once everyone has replied we will need to book without reconsulting so we may end up in the dress circle. If it is upper circle only by then will get back to those who are interested before booking so please include your mobile no.

We're off to see the Wizard !

For more info see Derngate Website

If interested please Contact Andy by Friday 20th November

Ramblers Area Quiz 2009 Saturday 28th March Moulton Village Hall, Pound Lane. Commencing at 7.30pm PROMPT. Arrive by 7.15 at the latest to get drinks etc.

The area quiz is continuing with the very successful Pub Quiz format and Nick Price has again volunteered for the challenging role of Quiz Master - those of you who may have found his questions much too hard / dated in the past should be re-assured that this is no longer the case as they have responded to our feedback!

Includes licensed bar.

Entry is free but each team has to make a suitable donation to the raffle.

There was a capacity attendance again last year so our group in common with the others is limited to THREE teams of four people.

If you would like to be in a team please contact Andy by Christmas so we can confirm numbers to the Area Committee by their deadline of Jan 7th 2009.
