    We have managed to keep the ticket price for The Garvald Christmas Dinner down at £7.50 per person,  thanks to a very generous donation from the Community Council. Amazingly good value!

    The format of the evening remains the same – the committee organise soup, turkey, ham, sausages, potatoes, gravy, various sauces and drinks. YOU provide the pizazz with salads and desserts. The invitations will be dropping through your letter-boxes any day now but if by chance yours goes astray, just write your own RSVP and return with payment to The Old Schoolhouse, Garvald by 27th November.  (Santa’s sledge is parked outside, disguised as a skip)

    The Annual Garvald Christmas Dinner – that beloved highlight of the festive calendar – will take place on Thursday 5th December at 7 pm. Please put the date in your diaries now, and look out for the invitations coming through your letter-boxes within the next few weeks.

    If there are any teenagers out there who are not studying for prelims that night, or busy with school dances or concerts, and who would like to earn a little bit of extra Christmas cash as they help with serving and washing-up,  please could they contact one of Santa’s angels….

    Caroline McGregor, Elaine McMillan, Trudi Cueto, Chiara Brand, Chiara Vaccaro, Gemma Gilmour, Becca Hamilton and Graeme Maxton

    And since we fear there are not many teenagers who routinely check the website please could we ask the Mums and Dads to draw this message to their attention.
