Guy Fawkes Night

[OldeBellPedr]

Guy Fawkes Night: A celebraton of the failure of a Catholic plot against the Protestant King James; a commemoration of the death of the only sane man ever to enter the Mother of Parliaments, or a great excuse for a party!

Whichever view you take, where better to spend it than in the pub of one of his descendents? (Well the genealogy isnt quite 100% proven, but its certainly possible)

At The Olde Bell we will be putting on an all-you-can-eat BBQ from 7pm, offering you a FREE glass of punch when you buy your first drink and letting off a few fireworks at 9.30pm (9.30 because its after the Newcastle/Everton match and before our double header of Man Utd v Sunderland and Liverpool v Swansea). We've got special police permission to let off some fireworks after we explained to them that it was a British cultural event and of course after tendering the correct reimbursement!

so far we've still got plenty of beer. We've no draught Chang or large Singha, but we've got everything else - so far! so why not bring the family and join us for a Great British Evening! (other nationalities are of course, welcome too!)

I believe Gary has bought an new shirt especially for it.... It mine and Mrs TM's wedding anniversary on the 5th (see I can never forget it as per the rhyme) so I may pop in with her for a few. Is it ok to bring Nipper TM?

[OldeBellPedr]

Of course it is TM! kids are very welcome. Billy may even be allowed to come along!

Are Welsh people allowed in the Public Room, or are we to sit outside for this English holiday?

Sorry I'll miss it, won't be in Chiang Mai till the end of the month. But if I remember you need to burn an effigy of the aforementioned Guy Fawkes. The original burning man celebration.

You're right of course mogoso, but the local fire brigade might object given our location!
