Right then,
It looks as though there there are a few of us out there looking for a bit of Christmas cheer. Now, I am happy to host however my place isn't exactly huge (2 bedroom flat at Citylights, in fact its tiny but easy for 2 bachelors to keep clean) so I don't think we'll be able to put on an 8-course banquet or anything.
However we could potentially handle some late afternoon drinks with food. I'll provide the flat, an oven, ice and some base level of drinks and food and then if everyone else can bring a bottle or two and some bits of food we can take it from there. Figure we can have a few drinks around mine and then look for someplace to move on to afterwards if people are up for it.
I am very open to options so please do chip in with further ideas/requests and so on. Starters for 10 would be:
a) Does anyone have a better idea for a venue, if you do then I will be happy to help set-up/clean-up
b) Are people looking for a full roast with potatoes, Brussel sprouts and lashings of gravy? If so then maybe meeting up and a suggested restaurant would be a better idea
c) Does anyone have ideas about where to head to afterwards?
Let the people decide I say so please do carry on the thread. If you know of anyone else who is in the same situation the feel free to direct them to this post. If numbers start getting crazy then maybe we might have to reevaluate. For now I'm seeing about 5 people and then myself but there is room for more. Also, it might be wise for me to pass this by my flatmate as well so that he doesn't get a surprise on the day.
Plus, if anyone is up for a drink in the meantime just to check that I'm not a total freak trying to lure people to my flat on Christmas Day just to get them under the mistletoe then feel free to get in touch direct at

I can almost feel the crimbo magic already.
and maybe some crackers.
