OK folks of the DT. Xmas day celebration for 'orphans' at my place is a go mission. Please DM me by end of tomorrow for address and public transport info if you are wanting to come.
I have secure bike parking, and there's plenty of street parking available. General area is Thornbury.
Timing is 2 pm to 5 pm approx - this is a bit flexible.
Its come as you are, and if convenient bring a plate of something snackish to share. I'm doing chips & dips and given the likely weather there will be a pot of soup. BYO grog. I'll have soft drinks and tea and coffee available.
PS: an orphan for the purpose of this event is someone who doesn't have another event planned for the day, plus trustworthy significant others.
I'm in!
