Rich & Tracy's Party: 28th April 2012
Amazingly we have been married almost 10 years now, and as it seems like a good excuse for a party we thought it could be the perfect opportunity to try and catch up with as many of our friends as possible, particularly as we are generally rather disorganised and bad at keeping in touch (sorry about that....)

Location
The party is on Saturday the 28th April 2012 at our good friends Don and Lesley Law's farm, just outside Newcastle-under-Lyme near Junction 15 of the M6. The address is:

Moss Hall Farm,
Hill Chorlton,
Staffs.
ST5 5DS

Plan
Arrive from 3pm onwards and we can hopefully sit around, have a beer and catch up in the nice surroundings. We are keen for it to be low key and as much fun as possible (you know us....). Kids are more than welcome and there is plenty of space for running around outside and if its raining there is room inside. Please bear in mind that as it is April it could be warm or freezing and the inside areas are not fully heated.

As evening rolls on we will have some tunes going on (watch out for 90's Indie classics...) and hopefully some live music from friend's bands. If you fancy getting up and having a go, brush up on your axe skills!

Dress code: Whatever you fancy. I'll be in jeans and T-shirt as usual and Tracy is actually threatening to wear her wedding dress (!). She was debating whether to make it a wedding dress party, but as the general consensus was that thats mental it isnt happening.

Grub & Drink
BYOB: Bring a bottle, keg or whatever you fancy drinking, and there will additionally be some ale from the local Titanic brewery on tap.

There will be a Hog Roast at around 5pm, or a Veggie Chilli if you prefer. Please let us know if you are veggie or any other dietry requirements when you RSVP so we can plan accordingly.

Accommodation
There is plenty of space for camping, or if that is a bit brave for you in April there are a couple of hotels within a few miles:

We are planning to put a bus on to take folk back to the Premier Inn at Trentham Gardens at the end of the night (around Midnight), so that would be the best place to stay if its possible (please let us know if this would be of interest to you);
