    Try and ring them again and see if you can reserve a table for food that evening as they probably got the wrong end of the stick originally and thought you were trying to book a room.

            Do you know who you have to buy for? Alternatively. Everyone give me a tenner and I'll see what's in my garage.

              I think buying for a particular person is risky - only needs one not to turn up and you're stuffed. Shall we say a fiver-ish - unisex pressie if possible, wrap it up, must be smaller than a sledge?

              Taking part not compulsory - don't want to put anyone off coming, but should be a laugh if most people join in.

                We just wait till everyone is totally trollied, stick the names of those who have brought a pressie/want to take part in a hat and Andyw's uncle is your date! At least me and k2p2 will get something amusing and inexpensive.

                A fiver-ish sounds about right. (remember to keep the receipt)

                  Lets not beat around the bush here. Just give me the fiver each and I'll turn up with the gifts already. Everyones a winner.

                  Have also been informed by Mrs MF that she's going to her mothers with the kids that weekend. Double result. So I may as well stay in London on Saturday as well.

                    I'm up for a bit of Secret Santa, do we know who is actually coming?

                      Then when you don't turn up, no-one gets anything. But feel free to bring some 'spares' for those who didn't quite get round to it.
