After the success of our long camping trip, is anybody up for a grand Christmas Party?
All of Gransnet is invited, it will be held on the 23rd December and will entail an overnight stay.Usual rules apply....alphabetical order, be as inventive as you like , and as Christmassy etc.

Alka Selzter! ?

Umbrellas ( so sorry, but for those of you staying in the east wing, you may need them, roof repairs are so expensive doncha know!)

Ovaltine to keep you warm in bed in the absence of a footman !

Mr and Mrs Rosesarered are your hosts, and we are throwing our Georgian mansion open to all of Gransnet.It's a smaller version of Downtown Abbey, plenty of rooms for
All for the night.The servants will see to your every need (But leave the young footmen alone, they are of a nervous disposition.)tchsmile
