Place your curry orders now....

Will be there.

[Nick Dennis]

I will be there too - may I also book a space at the curry house?

[Dan Moorhouse]

And to save the hassle of asking which night people want... Saturday, 30 mins after end of the fun in the auditorium.

[Dave Wallbanks]

Sadly I'm not coming this year. Don't miss the curry night out, it was great last year so get your names down early.

[Gorbash]

Add me in for the curry night....I may need some relaxation this time round!!!

Are we heading for the same place again Dan???

Might as well - they had spare seats unlike everywhere else!

[Joel Thorpe]

Usually I don't bother checking when it is as it usually clashes with a Germany trip of mine, but since you posted it here I might as well check (and hope) that I can go.

So what are the dates then......?

Also they were pretty much the onlyplace willing to take us....I tell you; anybody would think we were a group of troublemakers or summat!

Only thing is their definition of mild-medium-strong needs some revising....

[Luke Mayhew]

I've never been before.... Its sounds like it could be good fun as well as really useful so.... For former attendees - is it worth it?

[Tony Fox]

I will be giving people the great pleasure of listening to Bob Dylan (again)

[Joel Thorpe]

Found em!!

Luke, It most certainly is worth it. Not only can you go to several useful seminars/workshops which will revolutionise your teaching- you meet loads of people who you thought only ever existed in cyberspace. I recommend it for new teachers and old teachers (like me) alike.

[Dan Moorhouse]

Well worth going. And the curry is dished out (or was last year) by former pupils of mine.....

Well worth it Luke...get you and your NQT on it and split the workshops between the pair of you.

Meet all the crazy gang too (only in the bar mind you!)
