Re: Special Christmas holiday event date poll
OK Guys. I've closed the poll since we all need to prepare/plan for this final 2013 event. Peter called me a couple days ago to say that he is here in T&T but is leaving on 2nd January, so, besides the fact that the majority voted for next Monday, I want to include him and this is the only day of the two that he can make it. So the event will be held on Monday 30th December (next Monday).
We'd like to get a relatively early start so the track will be open from 5:00 PM. Also, since this is a rather special event it would be nice to have some stuff to eat, so your ideas/suggestions are needed. Please use the forum to sort this out so that we have a plan.

Re: Special Christmas holiday event date poll
GM Gordon - I know I could have phoned you but putting the forum to good use here... FREE!!! heheheh
Im sure you got plenty gifts to open & that you had a great day yesterday too? Me personally got 3 gifts (not including the one I got myself </:-) and most of all remembered to be thankful for the great & special "present" day it was most of all... We (family) play a little game who gets the most presents from under the chirstmas tree to open and Bethany won again this year. Now, dont go & think that I got myself a extra gift to win here because (read somewhere) its nice when you give yourself a treat/reward every now and again 
and of course its only after all the hard work you put out in life...
Getting back to the Racing - Good and not so Good News.
The Good ~ I will be showing up at this event (knowing how I missed out on the last two) and its as though Peter forced the issue (a good thing too) having FRC's 2013 last event in 2013 because hindsight would have it, having this event (first thursday) in 2014 wouldnt have been the same for a 2013 special event ent
How about having a FRC's first event for the new year on (Thursday 2nd.) to allow for the South Boyz coming up North on this day 
I promise I will make it my duty to come by early and help set up FRC
Also, as you may remember I did a big Mango (pepper & no pepper) Chow last year and will be doing a "Surprise Chow" like that again this year.
and not so Good News ~ Sorry to inform you now, Bethany will not be taking part in the "Kids Race Event" because she and her Mama went Miami this morning for 2 weeks and I told her (Betters) that I will be winning races for her too
See how long this phone call would have been...

Re: Special Christmas holiday event date poll
Luke, glad you had a good day with the family yesterday, as I'm sure most other FRC folk did.
I was not aware that the south boys could not make it on Monday. From Ramesh's comment I gathered that they just preferred Thursday. Do you know for sure that they cannot do Monday? Ramesh/Arden can you? It may be hard to do two events next week. I'll have to see how things go with the family plans.
Ian, it's always hard to tell how many will actually attend. We generally only know when the event starts. Maybe we can try to get some feedback by contacting people by phone or asking them if/when we make contact. For example, Boo's wife was in our shop earlier this week and she said hat he will probably be coming on Monday. Of course everyone is welcome to bring along others.
Unless plans change and we end up doing a "cook-up", everyone can bring a few things to "put on the table", so to speak.

Re: Special Christmas holiday event date poll
Hi all,
I'm very much looking forward to the event on the 30th. Concerning the eats, I think that instead of the 'cook-up' type thing, everyone could just bring some 'cutters' to share. Ian's suggestion of wontons is great, as is Luke's own with the chow. I'm thinking along the lines of maybe some grilled sausages. Another suggestion for those not eating meat would be something like vegetable sticks (eg. carrots or celery) with some sort of dip.
