Crazy Horses

 

I’m heading to York for Christmas this year to spend it with my auntie and uncle.

Looking forward to it

 

York is nice at Christmas, it’s nice anyway tbf.

 

Mrs G4E will win it this year if I remember to post the pictures

 

Might be this one, will check a few more out before deciding.

 

All sounds good. Only thing I would be slightly wary of with that menu is just how much they have got on it.

Sometimes a big menu can mean the overall quality isn’t as good. That said, everting on there sounds delicious.

I’d order one of each to make sure

 

Aren’t Christmas menu a preorder though?

 

Scallops, wellington, sticky toffee

 

Yeah was wondering that …

 

The thing that would bug me on this type of thing is the mark up on wine. You'd be paying £25+ for wine that you could get for a tenner.

**** that, unless it's BYO, I'd rather be drinking good quality wine at home on tap than being bummed to the tune of twenty five quid a bottle.

 

Given that place is charge a tenner for a glass of champagne, I reckon it’ll be £40+ for an average bottle of plonk.

 

Nice around Xmas time. has that old school feel about it. Will be getting train up one weekend in December and getting pissed as a fart during day no doubt

 

Yeah, I was being on the conservative side a bit.

Wonder what a pint of Beckies is there?

 

I’d guess at about 7 notes, with a short and mixer being 12+

 

@TOBES IS A WELCHER probably thinking cooking another chicken is a better idea right about now.

 

Yeah going away for Xmas is extortionate. Did it a few years ago and it was 3k per person for Xmas Eve to the 27th, 3 nights and basically 3 days. Was **** all to do as well

 

Done Xmas dinner out a few times, it's ****.

Someone has to drive, then it's regimented and you are either delayed in or rushed out if they are having two sittings. Even worse with your kids and others running about the ga

Just order all my sides from M&S and have a turkey from the local butcher along with a ham. This year I have ordered a pork loin with belly to do a porchetta for NYE

 

Going to Cornwall for a couple of nights after we play Bristol City on the 30th. Surprisingly cheap for what looks a very good place.

 

Piskie putting you up?

Ive been to cornwall before, not my cup of tea but realise I’m in the minority on that

 

Yeah we’re going naked surfing and eating quinoa.
