A DDK First on 8th September - details as promised

Post by Ian Donkin »

Hi All

As posted earlier in the year, Charlotte and I are getting married on Saturday 8th September and would be delighted for as many of you as possible to join us for our evening celebration at Alexander House Hotel, Turners Hill, West Sussex:

http://www.alexanderhotels.co.uk/alexan ... tion.shtml

We have arranged to have a reserved parking area for early Porsches ourside the hotel entrance and would really like DDK'ers to come along as without DDK we would never have met.

We have organised a string trio to play live between 7-10pm and are planning to have a complimentary drinks reception until 7.45pm, after which you will need to dip into your own pockets to buy a drink. There will also be an evening finger buffet so if you are able to come along, please can you let us know at the earliest opportunity in order that we can confirm numbers with the hotel.

The only request we would make is that smart attire is worn :).

RSVP

Ian and Charlotte

Confirmed attendees (partners welcome):

PMJT + Marie
Hot66 + Jo
Barry
Bert
Bootsy
Viv
Paul (Ferryman) & Lyn
Mike
Martin (MdR) & Sonja
Mike Usiskin & Anna
Gavin & Emily

:shock: Helen, honestly. You really think you are going to make that then, do you?! Besides, a typical wedding gift is more expensive than your tickets (even those of PCGB) so ,,,, :wink:

Speaking of gifts: is there a wedding list ?


Best regards and congrats once again!!
