Meeting arrangements

[mickthemaverick]

Well it only says loved ones so I don't think it's that bad, your meeting friends so I think that's okay. They could of said hated ones....

Yes agreed, but it might have been a business meeting or a meet with a professional of some sort. Not ideal in my view!

So loved/hated ones would suit better, especially if it's a business meeting

[mickthemaverick]

I think this would be acceptable to most customers:

Being serious for a moment, I personally think it's bad form for the restaurant to include comments like that in their standard booking acknowledgement, it makes assumptions about the customers and could be awkward for some people!!

Agreed Mick... All joking aside, I too was really quite taken aback to see that paragraph. As you say, it could indeed be very awkward.

Ryan, great to see you How are you keeping? Very well I trust...

I'm good thank you Jim, just taken my usual leave from Social Media. I find social media can absorb your life at times so I take regular breaks. I don't think I can make the meet as work/home life balance has been tipped, in my favour

That's great to hear Ryan And very wise on the social media front. I take care to limit mine so that it doesn't get in the way of enjoying real life.

Would love to see you at one of our meets in the future; maybe we can arrange nearer your region...

I'm coming on crutches and I'll put my airboot back on. That'll teach them.

Excellent Mike, If you are only 4 miles from the pub and need a lift just let me know!

[CitroJim]

Be great to see you Mike!

Following messages from Mike and Robin there is no real point in Jim and I going to The Shire Horse for lunch when we can move it back to Hemel. So what we need is proposals for availability dates from Mike, James and Robin bearing in mind that Tuesdays or Thursdays are the preferable options to pick. So post up your available days and we'll rearrange The Shire Horse.

Tuesdays or Wednesdays are the only available options for me (due to my work rota).

[mickthemaverick]

OK then James, Jim can't make Wednesdays and Robin prefers Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday so the logic is go for a Tuesday, how does that suit you Mike?

Mick, if there's an argument on which day to go I'll threaten to turn up, just tell me which day you prefer, I'll threaten the other day.....

[CitroJim]

Tuesdays are always my preferred.
