Just in case we forget, I've loaded a Countdown facility on my phone...with a handy alarm that will go off just before!! Its now Sunday 17th June so thats just 83 days (and the rest)
Further on, we've added a link to the Reception website and if you're starting to think about logistics for the day then the Taxi information might be useful. Finally.....we need more music. So if you haven't told us your toe tapping favourite...please send it through asap (you've only got 83 days!)
The reception is going to be at the Hulland Ward Millennium Hall....here's a link to the website that gives you lots of useful information, some pretty pictures and strangely....a helpful guide on the rules of whist!
Take a look...http://www.hwd2.co.uk/
Taxi !
If you're starting to think about car journeys or taxis then you'll be pleased to know that Allie's been busy doing some great deals with a local firm. For those of you that don't want to drive back from the reception and feel the walk might be a bit much after one or two cream sodas then you'll be glad to know that there's a lockable gate on the car park. So... your vehicles should be OK.....although obviously they're left entriely at the owner's risk.
Cars will have to be collected the next morning while the hall is open - we'll let you know these times nearer the day.
A local Belper taxi firm, Brook Travel (David Hudson) that has an eight seater and is willing to do some return trips from 10pm onwards.
According to Dave he should be able to get 4 trips from HW to Belper with approximate times being
10.15
11.00
11.45
12.30
...from HW
Doing stops at
The Talbot,
The Triangle,
The Lion
and Gibfield Lane
Approx price...£25 per journey!
Interested?...Ring him and let him know how many seats/drop off etc
Subject to availability...he can reserve you the number of seats in your group for the preferred time. This way different people can group together to make it cost effective, however remember..you may be limited to the times available.
David is on 07976 071496
But if you are heading in the direction of Ashbourne it would probably be better to get an Ashbourne taxi company - there's a couple here:
01335 343928
01335 345198.
Good luck
And finally...Music
Thank you for the music...etc etc.....But we need more!
Here are just a few of the suggestions so far....
Steve and Paula:
Paula says she has two tracks: "It goes to show you never can tell" by Chuck Berry and "Summer of 69" by Bryan Adams. I'd suggest the second movement of Dvorak's New World Symphony, or, as an alternative, "Israelites" , Desmond Dekker.
Julie W:
‘Is this love’ by Bob Marley
Janice and Roger:
Roger gets his feet tapping with Sultans of Swing- Dire Straits. For me it has to be Do the Mess Around- Ray Charles.
Jane Brudenell:
Jimmy Mack, of course! Mercy - Duffy and for David Moondance- Van Morrison
Anthea:
'September' by Earth Wind and Fire, and 'I love to love' by Tina Charles For
So.....in anticipation of further entries
I say thank you for the music...For giving it to me
Rog
