Yard's christmas nights out?

[teamsarazara]

Whats everyone doing for their Christmas nights out? We are going to see an ABBA tribute band accompanied by a three course meal and then wherever the night takes us after that

 

[Ali2]

Local pub, local band, chips and sarnies We go there every year - take over about a 1/4 of the pub and have a good old gossip and a dance.

We are just going out for a Xmas meal on the 23rd so should be good fun, nice to see people in clothes for a change, if you know what I mean.

 

[Natz88]

We go for a meal every xmas. It's nice to see everyone dressed up as so used to see everyone in yard clothes lol

 

[Boxers]

We're going for a pub supper. We make it a joint Xmas and birthday meal, cos its the YO's birthday now and mine next week.

We are a small yard, so there will prob be 6-8 of us there, but we have a laugh and try not to. Talk horse too much!

 

[Supertrooper]

We've decided to go out in January as we're all skint after YHL and with Xmas coming. We're going to go for a meal xxx

 

[Slinkyunicorn]

We do every year - I organise it I give them a choice of dates and a choice of 2 venues - the majority wins This year it is going to be sunday lunch the week before Christmas at a local farm/restaurant - does fab food (is on the Great British Food Revival ) There is about 20 of us

[muddygreymare]

My yard is going out for a meal but unfortunately I can't go as I'm at Olympia! Is a lovely idea though

 

[Hacked_Off]

We're going for drinks then a meal

 

[ATrueClassAct]

Our barn, YOs and full liveries are going out two weeks time for meal and drinks.

 

[leflynn]

Meal and much drinkies at the pub is the current plan

 

[Kat]

We are going to the Pub near the yard and "test driving" their christmas menu.

It is a pub under new management and they are doing us their christmas menu even though they don't really start serving it until the following monday, so it is a test run for them. There will be 20 of us including staff, liveries and some partners.

If my yard had a night out, it would just be me and my dog... Unless anyone knows of a restaurant in Essex which will let the horses in?

DH keeps moaning about not having a work Christmas do, I have suggested that he organises one as it could be tax deductable, but he is worried he'd be lonely what with being self employed.

Actually I know a pub up here that will let ponies in (actually inside to the bar) have never been in when a pony is in there but have met a hawk in there..... and a guinea pig, which was looking rather nervous about the hawk and the large number of lurchers present.

*snorts*

Think it's the usual meal/pub night, also coincides with my birthday so should be good

 

[JFTDWS]

*snorts*

I think that may not sound how it was intended

 

[rhino]

Coming from anyone else, probably not. But you?

 

[Kat]

JFTD - it is a great pub, they will let anything in that will fit really as long as it doesn't order a pint of lager! There are normally more dogs than people in the pub, and you do lose your seat to a lurcher if you get up. It is a real country pub. They have proper fires, real ale, an eccentric landlord, the works. They serve food, including vermin pie, which is apparently rabbit, squirrel and pidgeon......

And she knows that he wears Jodhs

 

[fatpiggy]

I think the others go out for a drink and/or a meal, but its a 35 mile round trip for me, I don't drink when I'm driving and I can't possibly afford a taxi. Couldn't afford a meal out if I'm being really honest too.

Are you suggesting I have a reputation for lewd, inappropriate comments?

Awesome, how long will it take me to hack there from Essex? I wonder what exotic animal I could bring to be unique

And she knows that he wears Jodhs

In my head, he was wearing full riding gear at his lonesome Christmas night out cracker pulling fest, yes

The Appleyard pub in Banham (opposite the Zoo) lets horses at the bar. I'll try to find a picture of my neighbours horse Kahn having a pint...
