Post by: chrislg on 18 September, 2007, 06:43:22 PM
THE 2007 HAMPSHIRE LMC CHRISTMAS LUNCH

Sunday 16th December 2007.

After a very successful event last Christmas, when we had 50 people attending (the maximum that can be accommodated!) the Hampshire area meeting is once again hosting the very popular Hampshire Christmas Lunch on Sunday 16th December 2007, arrive 12.30 for 1.00pm. The lunch is being held at our regular meeting place, The Bartley Lodge Hotel, off the A377, at Cadnam, near J1 of M27 in the New Forest. Those who have attended before will already know that the hotel manages to deliver an excellent meal in a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere in a beautiful wood panelled room that really captures the spirit of Christmas.
What’s more the price is just £16.00 per person (the same as last year!). I will need firm bookings, with names, their menu choices and payment by Wednesday 5th December 2007.

Please make your choices from the following

Starters

BUTTERNUT SQUASH, CARROT & ONION SOUP
With toasted pumpkin seeds

Or

SALAD OF SMOKED HADDOCK, PRAWNS AND SCALLIONS
With a sweet chilli, lime & coriander dressing

Or

CHILLED GALIA MELON
Accompanied by soft fruits & sorbet, glazed with a port wine syrup

Main Course

ROAST BREAST OF TURKEY
With cranberry & chestnut seasoning, sausage & bacon roll, roast potatoes & turkey sauce

Or

SLICED LEG OF LAMB IN MOROCCAN SPICES
On a bed of winter vegetables, rosemary & red wine sauce with roast potatoes

Or

HARICOT, KIDNEY BEAN & CELERIAC GOULASH
With sun dried tomato, onion dumpling & roast potatoes

***
All served with a selection of freshly prepared market vegetables

Sweet

TRADITIONAL CHRISTMAS PUDDING
With a rum & vanilla sauce

Or

ICED RASPBERRY & CHOCOLATE PARFAIT
With raspberry coulis & a honey tuile biscuit

Or

CRISP BRANDY SNAP BASKET
Filled with seasonal & exotic fruits and chantilly cream

To Finish

FRESHLY GROUND COFFEE WITH PETIT MINCE PIES

IMPORTANT! Please include all the names (first & last) of your party with their menu choices, (so that I and the hotel staff know who is having what) and enclose a cheque for the full amount made payable to ‘C R LONG’ (include an SAE if you require confirmation and a location map) and send to

Chris Long,
2 Nelson Close,
Holbury,
Southampton,
Hants SO45 2JG.

Please book early to avoid disappointment, as places are limited!!


Last year some coming to the lunch decided to spend the weekend at the hotel, if you wish to do the same, the direct line to book with the hotel is

the cost per person for B&B is £30.00 for Sunday – Thursday nights, and £40.00 for Friday and Saturday nights. Again please book early and mention the ‘Lancia Motor Club Christmas Lunch’ when making your booking.

I know due to the postal strike that Viva Lancia! has been late this month, but if you are planning to come to our lunch please get your bookings in quickly to avoid disappointment as they are now starting to arrive!

Just a quick note to say thank you to all those that turned out for the Hampshire Christmas Lunch. We had a full house of 50 attending with some coming quite some distance to attend and all contributed to the fantastic Christmas atmosphere. A quick look in the car park I saw 2 B20 Aurelias, 2 Fulvia Sport Zagatos, and Appia Sport Zagato GTE, Gamma Coupe and Kappa Coupe (apologies for those that I missed - bit is was COLD!!). Nicky and I would like to wish all LMC members and their families a Happy Christmas and a safe and Happy New Year!

See you next year!


Chris & Nicky Long

Really Hacked off that we missed meeting everyone at the Lunch, but as I was unwell we had to cancel at the last minute,  :'( pleased you all had a great time ;D
Hopefully we'll make it next year.

Sorry Geoff that I also missed looking at the electric superchargers ???
