New MINI severns Xmas dinner, how was it for you?

The New MINI severns held its annual Christmas Dinner last night at the Carpenters Arms, Stanton Wick.

It was a good turnout, with its members travelling from all over the South West (and WALES!) and few from further afield.

The Carpenters Arms came up trumps with some excellent food, and a nice private room, to segregate us rowdy MINI folk from the 'Norms'. The Game Casserole looked particulary delicious (funny how you don't see much 'road kill' about in the Stanton Wick area!).

A few highlights of the evening
-Aston, although being very camera shy all evening, played an excellent Father Christmas with his very useful gifts for everyone (thank you).
-Matrog and Becca managed to sit down to a whole meal that didn't come from the 'Golden Arches'.
-It was good to meet our friendly neighbourhood dealer, Scrogg, at last (I hope you weren't asked to talk too much shop!)

Everyone had a fantastic time, with much drinking and merryment into the wee hours until the final stragglers (you know who you are!) took to their beds.
