Can you find out the things Custy's found out about the Hilton? How much would it be, what's included for that price, etc.

Personally, drink - it's not a big part of the evening for me. So mentions of all putting in cash for drinks concern me. I'll end up having an orange juice for £30.

Carmenere · 01/08/2007 15:47

No I don't think that putting in money for drinks is a good idea, far too messy. there really needs to be a pay bar.

CountessDracula · 01/08/2007 15:47

at this place the party menus start at £13 and all booze can be bought separately if you want

I have a team work do next thurs am going to move it to this place to check it out

eleusis · 01/08/2007 15:47

Doesn't anyone want to go with me? sniff sniff

eleusis · 01/08/2007 15:48

Oh, don't thinkI'll go to your team work do.

CountessDracula · 01/08/2007 15:48

then if it is ok we can go eleusis and mars ok??

eleusis · 01/08/2007 15:48

ok

hunkermunker · 01/08/2007 15:49

Can you make sure there's enough separate area that won't be full of banging music, please.

I also don't want to jump up and down grinning like a loon at people all evening and not be able to hear.

[tea dance]

Carmenere · 01/08/2007 15:49

shall we crash CD's work do elusis?

eleusis · 01/08/2007 15:49

I would, Carmenere. ButI have to go to work myself. Schedule conflict.

Carmenere · 01/08/2007 15:50

There really has to be somewhere to chat, I do like dancing but only much later in the evening.

hunkermunker · 01/08/2007 15:50

What's on the menu for £13 and how much are the others and what is on those?

[quizmaster]

CountessDracula · 01/08/2007 15:52

pay bar
area with no or quietish music
dancing
food that is edible
somewhere fun
