Re: British Food & Ale evening at The Pie Shop

Sounds like a great idea that ticks all the boxes for an evening of fine cheer. More chairs might be an idea...

*whispering* Sutter, I'll adopt two of yours, I wont tell, if you don't tell. We'll figure out the accent problem after a few beers.

Re: British Food & Ale evening at The Pie Shop

How about you allocate the supplementary guests to someone else ? This is not rocket science.
