Only 65 days and counting! I can hardly wait!
I’ve sent out another update for XCstravaganza 2013. If your copy didn’t arrive or your spam filter sensibly deleted it, you can access the update below.
XCstravaganza 2013 – Update 3 – May 30, 2013
We’ve got everyone’s (provisional) arrival and departure details so now we need to turn our attention to the really important things like eating!
I’ve allocated provisional cooking dates to those who will be responsible for catering XCstravaganza. We now need to know what special dietary requirements, if any, each of you might have. I’ve put a form on the XCstravaganza web site which you can access here. Alternatively, drop me an e-mail with your needs and we will ensure that they get communicated to each day’s Chef de Cuisine.
We’re also just finalising details for a new event this year – a Great Grandchild Beauty Pageant! (Various members of the extended Jelliffe clan are keen to meet their new great-grand-nieces and nephews so we’re planning a lunch on Saturday 10 August when the great-grandchildren can be paraded and admired. There will be various categories such as Most Beautiful Great Granddaughter aged 5 years or older; Most Beautiful Great Granddaughter aged between 3 and 5 years old; Most Handsome Great Grandson aged 5 years or older, Most Beautiful Great Granddaughter aged less than 3 years old and greater than 18 months old, etc., etc. By an amazing coincidence, I believe there are seven great grandchildren and there are seven categories in the pageant – what are the chances of that!)
Anything else you think of drop me a note or complete the suggestion form on the XCstravaganza site.
Looking forward to seeing you all.
