We have a commitment from the Rathbone Family and staff at Ruslamere that our food and in fact overall experience will be top class, and that at only R160.00 per person.

The venue is absolutely stunning, what a place Russell has created.

We have secured the services of the very best entertainer in the land as far as I am concerned. Also one of the very best guitarists I have ever heard. 

Now we just need the folks of the BMW MCC Cape to attend and make this an afternoon to remember.

So make sure you come and spend a crazy afternoon with friends and family. I promise, you will not be dissapointed.

If it's Francois du Plessis from Bands4Africa, he is fantastic entertainment. He played at my 50th and it was a jol. And yip, he is an awesome guitarist and I reckon would have given the late Gary Moore a run for his money!

Once again, we miss out on this one.

We have a pre-booked overnighting event over the mountain, Friday and Saturday night.

Hiking, fishing, etc etc.

So enjoy and wish we were there.

I have never experienced in my life before a year like 2013, which definitely goes down as the busiest year of my life!!!

with only 25 hours in a day and  only 8 days in a week, there is simply not enough time to do what needs to be done.

I cannot even comprehend the word boredom.

The Rathbone's have kindly given the following prize to us, to be given to one lucky couple at the function.

A voucher for two for one night on a weekend to stay at the Ruslamere Boutique Hotel and Spa.

 But if you ain't there, you cannot win it.

Thanks Russ and Gizzy, much appreciated.

Jean needs to attend a meeting that afternoon and I will be in G P to watch my grand daughter performing gymnastics. We are sorry to miss this magic event. Have a wonderful afternoon with good people.

We have committed to giving final totals to the restaurant by Friday afternoon, so they can begin their planning. This means that Friday is therefore the cut off for your payment. 

If we haven’t received your payment by Friday, we will need to assume that you are no longer joining us and unfortunately remove you from the guest list. 

Alternatively, if you have already decided not to join us, please let either Sian or myself know. 

If you have paid since we received the last update from the lady of the money, thank you and please ignore this. 

We look forward to seeing all of you there for what will be a very special afternoon.

Hi Justin

You have until 12pm on Friday to convince Wendy that she's paying for the Christmas function - if you don't succeed I'm afraid you're going to have to bite the bullet and pay :-)

Sian.

And every one is paid up, so now it's just a little matter of 7 days until party time.
