T
Can I please ask you to forward this on to your Surrey mailing list?
Thank you.
If you have not yet booked a place at this year's UKIP Christmas Dinner
and if you would like to come to the UKIP Surrey and London Christmas
Dinner can I urge you to get your reservations in and your cheques in
the post as not only will it be a sell out but we have to give firm
numbers and deposits to the hotel before 1st December. Read on.
Colleagues,
I am delighted to advise you that we will be holding the
thirteenth
consecutive Annual Christmas Dinner at the Holiday Inn,
Portsmouth
Road, Surbiton, Surrey, KT6 5QQ on Tuesday 20th December, 7.00pm
for
8.00. Carriages 11.30pm. Dress: Lounge Suits.Unlimited free
parking
immediately adjacent to the hotel. Nearest stations, Kingston
and
Surbiton main line, both 1/2 mile away with taxis outside of the
station.
The speakers this year will be the UKIP Party Leader, Nigel
Farage, MEP
and the official UKIP candidate for the London Mayoral Elections
in
2012, Lawrence Webb.
The cost of tickets is £25 per head for two courses and payable
when
booking. And early booking is recommended as tickets will sell
out
fast.Why not make a night of it and stay over? We have
negotiated
a
special overnight rate of £89.50 for bed and breakfast. In the
morning
why not pop into Kingston (1/2 mile away ) and do some Christmas
shopping in the famous and warm, indoor Bentall Center, and the
famous
street market in the beautiful 16th century market square? The
Holiday
Inn is a new hotel overlooking the Thames in Kingston and
Surbiton
constituency and is a new `bijou' style modern hotel.
The theme will be "Bring a prospective UKIP member" with our
campaign
to build Surrey into the biggest and best UKIP region and in
line
with
the Party's aim of doubling the size of the membership in the
next
twelve months. Not an easy task. With the firm intention of
expanding
the Party ahead of the Mayoral elections next year, the
Euro-elections
in 2014 and the declared General Election in 20015 it will be a
great
opportunity for you to bring any guests, friends or family to a
major
UKIP social event and let them see some of UKIP's finest `Strut
their
Stuff!" We are aiming for 50% of the audience to be non-members,
ready
for recruitment. If we got the same number as we did last year
along
with a further 50% who were not members it would justify taking
the
adjacent suite; about which, see below.
Capacity is limited to 120 people and last year was a 100% sell
out. If
demand warrants it we could book the adjacent suite which is a
separated by a sliding wall and seats a further 100 but we would
need
early bookings if we are to secure the additional suite given
how
busy
this period is in the run up to Christmas.
. So cheque books out please! Yes, I know, what a delightfully
old
fashioned operation we are. Unlike Tesco we still accept
cheques.
And
big ones too please!
Cheques should be payable to UKIP Kingston Branch, please and
sent to
John Moran, 1 Lovelace Villas, Claygate, Surrey KT10 0PE.
Regards and an early good Christmas wish for you.
John Moran.
