For those of you unfamiliar with this annual event it is traditional for us to have a social gathering early in the New Year and to bring along our partners and family members for an informal evening, similar to the annual summer BBQ event.

  We have arranged for a hot buffet to be served at 8.30pm including a curry with rice, plus lasagne with a selection of desserts.  Please let us know of any special dietary requirements or if you require a vegetarian meal and please make the effort to arrive before 8pm.

  In order for us to ensure there is the correct amount of food available please let me know your numbers attending before Midday on Monday 10th January.  The buffet cost is £15 per person and those interested in attending can call Mark Weller on on 07711 885388, 01874 622644 or via e-mail to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

  Please get in touch as soon as you can.  The NADJ Wales Committee (Justin, Paul, Brian and myself) are planning some interactive entertainment that will not be music biased - we don't want the night to turn into a busman's holiday!

  The acting NADJ National Chairman, Paul Arnett, is travelling down from Yorkshire to join us and some of us will be stopping at Cwrt Bleddyn to keep him company at the bar into the small hours.

  We so hope you can join us for some informal fun and frivolity as its not often we get opportunities to let our hair down is such fabulous surroundings.
