Christmas Meal - 2006
By JamesQuite Simply French - Saturday December 2nd
The Christmas meal has now been booked at Quite Simply French, 27a St. Georges Quay, Lancaster, for 8 p.m. 2/12/2006. This will be the second visit by the club this year, and the last one was thoroughly enjoyable.
This year the meal is £20 per head for 3 courses1. There are no drinks included in that price, and any ‘additions to compliment’ must be paid for separately on the evening (don’t order in advance).
Places are strictly limited and available on a first-come-first-served basis. We require a £5 deposit and your starter and main course preference by 31/10/20062 - Give your money and choices to one of:
- Your team captain
- Stuart Allan
- James Illingworth
- Cynthia Dickinson
but Stuart should be your first port of call, really.

Footnotes
- before you ask, the third course is presumably variable and to be selected on the evening, as the menu only shows starters and main courses - I don’t know any more than that [back]
- sorry, only 2 weeks notice, but would more notice have made any difference? [back]
