:cool: Did a deal just before all this energy malarkey kicked off.
Pay £10 more than I was already paying fixed until May 2024, I think I may also be in for a £400 windfall so I'll save the candle for now.;)

:LOL::LOL::LOL::LOL: Well it certainly came in a box John but I don't think anyone realised the significance of the contents, snuggled in amongst the contents of which were a pair of "Fat Bottom Girls Pants" and a priceless candelabra well, at least that's what you described it as! ;)

Ahhhhh ! You got the stand in.... Phew !
That candelabra is solid.. uuummmmmm ........something metalish

I have on good authority it was used to light the Lascaux caves in France to help early Homosapien decorate their living rooms so its at least 17,000 years old

Mind you the same good authority did also suggest the plastic tea caddy was shipped over from China in 1870 on the Cutty Sark, so I will leave it to you as to the authenticity of the claim
 
Interested subject to work commitment

IF INTERESTED PLEASE REPLY TO THIS THREAD
When tickets go on sale I will contact all those who have posted on this thread

24th of May 2023 to 29th of May 2023
Location, Swaffham rugby club, North Pickenham Road Swaffham Norfolk PE37 7QX

What three words: ///skipped.yield.moons

A little early to post this but I have had so many requests to get it on the board I decided it best to bow to pressure !
Yes, we are back at the Swaffham venue for the 2023 ( and 23rd year of the event ! ) as requested by pretty much all who attended
The venue is 5 minutes walk from a quite big market town with lots to see and visit
The site has a good elsen point and fresh water ( both on opposite side of the building thankfully LOL !! )

The only fly in the ointment is the cost. The venue price is almost three times that of Thetford, so am afraid ticket prices are a little more next year
The price PER HEAD ( as always ... got to consider all the solo travellers ) will be £17.50, but that is for the WHOLE event. from 3pm Wednesday the 24th of may until Monday the 29th( might get away with Tuesday but we will have to see )
That equates to £7 per night for a couple ( and dogs and kids under 16 if you have them ! ) which is pretty good

We will be returning to the normal format now the gov has stopped messing about the dates

Friday night Fish and chips and hopefully a quiz laid on by Gaston aires ? ( Let me know mate :) )

Saturday morning motorcycle ride out
Saturday evening live music and charity auction ( got BIG news on that for all our regulars... see note below )

Sunday morning Moped madness ( We supply all the peds and crash helmets if wanted )
Entry is free and the over all winner gets a nice trophy

In the afternoon if needs rise, another quick auction to sell any bits still up for grabs
Also if the weather is fine we may have another mass gave of Bobs Blocks in the afternoon
Sunday evening it is 60's - 70's disco night courtesy of meanders ( if that's ok for you Robin ? ) plus trophy presentation

Monday it is goodbyes and thank yous :)

Tickets will go on sale late November

So what is the big news ?

I found the ORIGINAL CANDLE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No problem John, things may change and we may take up the offer anyway when the message comes!

Please give Mo our love, and hope she feels better soon.

And as for you and Dillon, keep looking after my handsome boy x
