Having looked at the website, I agree that the Village hall is
ideal. HOWEVER, I did feel the Twixmas event was missing
something last year, and I think that was a pub! :D Having
taken on the burden in 2012, it's a LOT of effort and pressure
on the day (will people pay?) but I think it's totally worth it,
it saves people making a packed lunch, and everyone gets a good
meal and cold drink in a more welcoming atmosphere. So I would
love to see another event staged in a pub, BUT I completely
understand if we opt for a Village Hall again, as I said, it's a
good venue anyway and it saves people money whilst reducing the
stress for us :)

freedom to do what we wanted.[/li]
[li]People have complained about how expensive food is at
different pubs before, we've made a venue change on this
basis.[/li]
[li]And, I think this is very important, takes some pressure off
the Event organiser. :)[/li]

:D
This will be the fifth Twixmas Bash, so we've got to make it the
best yet, and I think this venue is the perfect place to realise
that :)
Just the a few caches around the village, two Multi's -
[member=9]Wrighty[/member] have you found either of these?
I think due to the lack of caches, it'll be somewhere most
cachers haven't explored, making it a more special day out in a
new area for many :)

Did the two multis here in 2007 and as TJ stated in his log for
GC1043K, "What a fantastic walk this would be if there were a
few more caches en-route as a bit of a reward."
If anyone is interested, AQ-L needs resuscitating, almost 2
years unfound.

We are going to need two CWFC prizes; has anyone seen a World
Cup/ football-themed geocoin for the most milage, and perhaps a
Brazil-themed one for the first to Brazil?
Also, whilst we're on this topic, do you think we should to
re-launch the CWSBC at this year's event, or something new?

A lot more expensive
than Adlestrop (this year it's "£6.00 per hour with a minimum of
2 hours per booking").
[quote]Hire Rates
Local Rate (Parish Residents) £9.00/hour (Preparation time
£4.50)
Outside Parish £12.50/hour (Preparation £6.25)
Licence Fee £10.00 (If you wish to provide alcohol or
entertainment you must apply to the Committee for a Licence)
Electric cards for kitchen power £1.00[/quote]

Hmm, that is more expensive!
But it's an ideal venue, and don't we have some money left over
from other events?
Could always hold another raffle too, if we don't have enough.
