CONSORTS’ DINNER - WEDNESDAY 19 JANUARY 2011

CONSORTS’ DINNER - WEDNESDAY 19 JANUARY 2011
1st Battalion Scots Guards Officers’ Mess 
The annual Consorts’ Dinner will now be held on Wednesday 19 January 2011 in 1st Battalion Scots Guards Officers’ Mess, Bourlon Barracks, and this note serves as an invitation to all wives/husbands of serving officers within ITC, 4 Bde and Catterick Garrison.   Please note the change of date from the previous email.  
As some of you may know, this event has become something of a tradition and a wonderful opportunity for us ‘Consorts’ to get together without our other halves and have an enjoyable evening!  
The cost of the evening will be £30 per head (cheques to be made payable to Officer Consorts Luncheon Club) but unfortunately your place cannot be guaranteed until I have received payment. The cost will include welcome drinks, a three course meal, wine during dinner and coffee and cheese afterwards.  There will then be a bar available after dinner for those who fancy another drink or three (!) so please remember to bring some cash along too!  Additionally, the Pipes and Drums and Dancers of 1st Battalion Scots Guards will entertain us during dinner.  The dress will be cocktail dresses/Black Tie and the evening will commence at 7.30 for 8pm. Sadly, we are unable to provide transport but perhaps you can arrange something through your own units.  Finally, although this letter is being sent out through all the UWO’s, if you know of any other 'officer's consort' who may not have received this please do forward it accordingly. 
Please complete the proforma below and return it to me by no later than Monday 3rd January.  The Officers’ Mess seats only a limited number of people and so please respond promptly to guarantee a place! 
I look forward to seeing you on Wednesday 19 January! 
Caroline Jopp
