Reserving a table
We have 22 tables – 13 tables are 1.8m wide and 9 tables are 1.2m wide. If you have a preference or requirement for a specific table width please let us know. If we don’t hear from you we’ll assume you’ll be happy with either width. If you want a table covering please bring one along.
Payment for tables is by bank transfer. Bank details will be sent along with the notice of a successful place. Please pay promptly when notified you have a place or it may be passed along to the next person on the waiting-list. This is to ensure full attendance and benefit for the highest number of members.
