Looks like the Beaufort Park Hotel will be the best option.  I will make a booking for 60 people tomorrow unless that's too many.  I am basing this on one third of our members attending plus partners.  I have been told that the cost per person will be £32.00

Just managed to get through to the Beaufort Park and they said that they will be able to hold 50-60 places for me until next Thursday when I will be in the area.  Need decision by then regarding whether it is going to be the Beaufort or Stamford Gate.  :unsure:

I feel you were all a bit hard on Greg, he was only doing his best, he was worried about affordability, thinking of the members, and he was after all elected to organise the party.
I wont be going.

I will give Beaufort Park a ring tomorrow to book 50 places.  I will be visiting the Hotel on Thursday to check it out and will be over at the Glan later.  Somehow I think I will be giving Maeshafn Mine a miss!  If you think I should book more places let me know.

Just had a look on the forum regarding the chatter about last year's Christmas party organised by Sam and held at the Glan.  According to the post on page http://www.ucet.org.uk/index.php?option=com_kunena&view=topic&Itemid=191&catid=9&id=10952&limitstart=120 there were 23 people attending.  Don't forget we were still having problems with COVID then and First Minister, Mark Drakeford was threatening to kibosh everything and as a consequence some people may have been put off.  I don't want to book too few seats otherwise people will be disappointed but on the other hand I don't want to book too many either.  I hope to see the events organiser at the Beaufort on Thursday and see if I can book say 40 seats with the option of booking more later if there is demand.

Awesome news everybody.  I have booked 50 spaces at the Beaufort Park Hotel for their Christmas Party Event on Saturday 3rd December.  Deposit has been paid and I need to make the full payment by 23rd November.  Cost per person will be £32:00 and includes a three course sit down meal and disco.  Event starts at 19:30 GMT and finishes at midnight.  There is a bar, The Arches so we can get there in plenty of time and there is ample car parking.  I have booked a room at the hotel for the night and I will enquire how many rooms there are left if anybody else wants accommodation.  I can also enquire about accommodation nearby.
I will post the menu on here shortly.  Dress code is smart casual, no trainers.
