Christening, Birthday, House Warming! (by sarah)
The weekend of the 26th and 27th of August is the one to put in your diaries!
On the Saturday will be Jean's 1st Birthday party and our official house warming - that is Sat the 26th of August! This will be an all day event, with nibbles and an all day BBQ - bring your own drink though - sorry guys, we're running on a bit of a budget here! Rmember we have a bubble machine, paddling pool, chocolate fondue, candy floss maker, popcorn maker, doughnut maker - so be prepared for a sugar high!
Saturday starts from 11 am into the evening 🙂
Sunday sees the chistening at St James The Great, Cranham. Service starts at 11 am. There will be 'little drinks and biccies' in the churchyard followed by Tea and cakes here and another barbeque. There will also be a Tree Planting in Jean's honour (a lovely little walnut). We will be providing some wine for this occasion!
We're really sorry but we can't put people up, both space wise and money wise (there is limited floor space, only recommended for the young and hardy) but we will be posting a list of nearby campsites and B&B's.

I can probably manage some ferrying to you from london on a first come first served, happy to come at the same time as Charlee and Andy and leave at same time basis.

Sorry my dear, can't make it, Lianne says thanks for the invite, but she's having her 21st on the evening of the 26th - now if you guys had only done it on the bank holiday Monday the next day I'd have been ok. 🙁 Sowwy! I'll see you this weekend though, what are the arrangements for that, ie what time do I need to get there?

Sundays going to be all day and if you want I'm sure a few people will be around on the monday - we could have have a mini - Clare party! Tell Lianne to enjoy herself 🙂

i see you have followed our good example of investing in a chocolate fountain.....strawberries will be good.....mmmm
are there any B&Bs or hotels near your house within walking/taxi distance.

We only have a little fondue set not a fountain though if some nice person wouldnt mind lending us one? 🙂
We'll be posting a list of the hotels etc.. in a bit once I've dug out all the relevant info!
