[Swlug] SWLUG Christmas curry 2023

[Chris Jackson]

Last chance to join us if you haven't already.  I'll be confirming the
final number on Tuesday night, after which if you're not on the list,
you're not coming in.

This year, that would be on Tuesday 12 December.

They do not serve alcohol, but do welcome BYO.  (There is nominally a corkage fee, but I don't remember ever seeing it on the bill.)

>> Location is about 10-15 mins walk from the city centre, about 5-10 mins walk from Grangetown station, or less than 5 mins walk from local buses at the cross (Pentre Street/Durham Street stops on Clare Road).  There is limited on-street parking, but public spaces are available on the Embankment about 200m away.

>> If you'd like to come, you can reply here or contact me directly off-list.  I would be looking to confirm the booking towards the end of November.
