Pollin' pollin' pollin'...
Poll time!
Since people expressed interest in Alton Towers and Chatsworth, we're now moving on to the inevitable poll :-) If we get this sorted out quickly, I can add these in to the price for the accommodation etc, which will be easier for everyone.
Alton Towers will cost somewhere between £15 and £25 for entry, depending on whether a discount code I've found still works.
Chatsworth will be £10.35, or £9.25 if there are more than 15 of us.
I thought I'd also check for interest in afternoon tea at Chatsworth. Booking on-line in advance gets a 10% discount and we'll be guaranteed to be able to get into the restaurant together. It isn't cheap, but I'm pretty sure it will be fantastic, and what could be more English than afternoon tea? Anyway, this is an optional extra for the day, so fill in the poll and let me know.
Traditional Afternoon Tea - £13.45
Home-made dainty finger sandwiches of smoked salmon, ham and wholegrain mustard, and free-range egg mayonnaise with leaf spinach
Freshly baked sultana scone with preserve and clotted cream
Mixed berry mousse
The best chocolate brownie
Baby elephant's foot meringue
Choose from a pot of carefully selected leaf teas
Cavendish Afternoon Tea - £15.75
Enjoy the Traditional Afternoon Tea above with a glass of rose wine.
Devonshire Afternoon Tea - £19.30
A glass of Chatsworth own label Champagne
Home-made dainty finger sandwiches of smoked salmon, ham and wholegrain mustard, and free-range egg mayonnaise with leaf spinach
Freshly baked sultana scone with preserve and clotted cream
Crayfish cocktail
Mixed berry mousse
The best chocolate brownie
Baby elephant's foot meringue
Choose from a pot of carefully selected leaf teas
Finally, transport. We're hiring a slightly less spacious mini-bus this time round, which means that we'll need to lay on a bit of extra transport during the week. If you're coming by car, and are willing to help ferry people to Chatsworth etc, would you please tick the appropriate ticky box in the poll? We'll be asking £5 from non-drivers, to be split for petrol etc.
Also, if you want collection from Standsted, please ticky the box, so I can get a final, definitive number. Standsted minibus fare will be £20.
Please fill in the poll even if you're saying no, so that we can be sure everyone's seen it.
