Hello everyone,

Hello everyone,

I have already started the ball rolling for our Christmas Powwow in Cardiff!

We will be going to an Italian restaurant, Bella Italia (in the Brewery Quarter), for a late lunch (3:00 pm) so that as many of you as possible can come.

I need to have the final numbers 2 weeks before (as we have to pay a deposit of £5 per person).

We also have a Christmas menu to choose from and I will post it here as soon as I can. We will have to give our choices one week before the date.

Looking forward to seeing you all there! ▲ Collapse

Menu choices Nov 10, 2008

Hi Trini,

Thank you for organising it all so well! The menu looks great, can I please have the following:

- mushrooms
- smoked salmon
- tiramisu

When you talk to them, do you mind mentioning I'm a veggie - they tend to decorate your plate with ham if you don't tell them. Sorry to be such a hassle!

Not too late! Dec 4, 2008

Hi Simon (and anyone else who is interested in joining us),

Although I already paid the deposit and gave the restaurant our menu choices, I agreed with them that we would have until tomorrow to tell them about any additions.

If you would like to come, have a look at the menu options in the link I posted (£19.95 menu) and tell me as soon as you can what they are, so that I can ring them tomorrow. Otherwise, you can still come along but they may not have your choices.
