#1 Owston meet 2017 10th june?

Post by steve s »

Hi all, went to owston to check availability for june.. they have two weekends free (one of them I'm attending lesleys daughters wedding), so it only leaves the week end 10/11 June,

If you are ok and plan to attend, please post asap including if your attending just the sat or sat & sun, i will hope confirm with them on Monday... if we have the numbers of course

The venue has been renamed as 'the owston' its had a refurb and prices have gone up including a fixed room hire of £100 per day, the cheapest buffet at £10 head and no free tea/ coffee.

If there is only a few for the sunday ( less than 10) please bear in mind the room costs... £100 shared

I would expect the cost for the saturday to work out at around £15 per head to include the buffet/ room hire nad hopefully a morning cuppa ? To be confirmed...

Please dont go booking hotel rooms untill its confirmed, but by all means check availability
Thanks...

Hi Steve, thanks for your efforts. :)

I should be OK for both days.

not where I'm goin' har har har.

I know I'm only me and the majority have the last say but there have been more than a few times when the choice has been 'to go or not to go' rather than of several dates on which the people can decide. The kind of travels I do are usually not bound by dates, or rather I can choose when I go/come back --- its just that I've already chosen, so shelled out for airline and perhaps the first hotel of wherever it is I want to explore, wrestle tigers, climb mountings, teach orangutans to hide successfully from humankind, swim with dolphins, engage in deep philosophical discussions with beautiful exotic princesses and generally make Indiana Jones look like a one dimensional Hollywood cardboard cutout, long before an Owsters announcement happens. You can see that I have to go, can't you. I mean exotic princess etc etc as opposed to getting pissed in the bar with you lot and anyway the choice is taken out of my hands! What can a poor boy do?

I'm not complaining (honest) and don't want to sound unreasonable but it would be rather nice to see some of you old gits one day.
