Dear DSL Villagers,

You are all warmly invited to join one of the most fun village evenings of the year: the Safari Supper! Second only to the fete, this event is also a major contributor to supporting the village church.

The format is slightly different this year:

Everyone will meet together for drinks and nibbles at The Old Rectory (instead of a starter course at different houses) and then we will all head off to host houses for the main course and move again for the pudding course. We will all then regather for coffee and/or something stronger at Barley House, kindly hosted by Anne Wright.

I have already heard from some willing hosts (thank you) but I will need more please! Hosts provide food and drinks to guests at their own expense but of course will not be charged the full ticket price. Hosts will receive a discount of £15 for main course and £8 for pudding, from their ticket price.

Due to the slightly different format this year, the full ticket price is slightly lower at £32 per person.

When you let me know if you can come, please indicate whether you would be happy to host a main or a pudding course (stating a preference if you have one) or if you will just be attending as a guest. Do also let me know if you have any special dietary requirements.

Timings for the evening are as follows:

6.30pm onwards: Drinks and nibbles at The Old Rectory. Here you will be given your surprise(!) envelope giving details of your hosts for main course and pudding
7.30pm: Main courses start
9pm: Pudding courses start
10pm: Coffee/something stronger at Barley House

Please pay for your tickets using a reference of your surname and 'Safari’

For planning purposes, I would really appreciate knowing if you can come by 7th March, the day of the Village Litter Pick!

Looking forward to hearing from you,

Victoria
