Terry Everall Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 As yet I have not arranged an awards dinner. There are several reasons for this but the main issues are the cost of B&B at hotel which has rocketed and also just how many people will attend as event turnout this year is not as high as normal Please indicate if you would attend and with how many people If anyone has ideas for a decent hotel in the Midlands please let me know Attending Terry Everall -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Gaskin Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 In the village of Quorn just outside of Loughborough. There are a couple of nice looking hotels, namely ‘Quorn Grange’ and ‘Quorn Country’. Date depending, I will be attending. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Houlgate Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 I'll come depending on the date. Weekdays are best. I last used Wroxall Abbey about 15 years ago for a series of live in seminars for Birmingham City University and it was OK then! Costs look reasonable but it would need to be checked out. Dinner B&B is given at £135. https://wroxallabbeyhotel.co.uk/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graham frankland Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 Does it have to be a evening do? I attended a lunchtime event earlier in the year and it was very enjoyable and different for a change! It does not stop anyone who wants to from staying overnight!

woodman Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 Even though I am not taking part any longer I remember attending a super Hsa event at a room at the Brit motor museum at Gaydon. It was during the day and we had access to the museum. Very enjoyable and interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Everall Posted July 20, 2022 Author Share Posted July 20, 2022 All ideas welcome but weekdays are difficult for people who work and as partners and wives go I am not sure a car museum would go down well. Hotel with B&B works well as people who travel and want a drink need somewhere to stay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephenh Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Terry, me and Mrs H. would prefer not to have to stay overnight, but if the dinner is at a venue which we can drive to within around an hour or so we would support the dinner again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stickymint Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Count me in (1), dependant on date. Happy to stay overnight, would also support a lunchtime event if that's what people want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't go but from what I can gather it was a good event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
