The Duke

[Michael Palaeologus]

Dagnabit! I will be thinking of you from France.

[SeanMacGabhann]

Pretty fair chance I'll be there!

[Keef]

Playing at a wedding the following day, so won't be having a mad one, but am interested to try The Duke, so will most likely pop along.

[mockney piers]

I'll be thinking of you all from Guatemala as Mr O'Mockney >:D

[SteveT]

Couldn't you just pop in for a swift half, Mockers?

[mockney piers]

;-)

I'll text you all picture of sunrise over the Mayan ruins!

Which if I'm not mistaken look suspiciously like those on the Yavin IV

[Strawbs]

And I will be thinking of you all from the Maldives.. Damn it what a one to miss, its the day after my birthday so if I had of been there I would have had my celebration shoes on..

Have fun..

[SteveT]

Not unlike the pagoda in Kew Gardens:))

[Brendan]

I will be on a boat or a beach in the Aegean thinking of, well to be honest, nothing much more than how cold my beer is and how good my wife looks in a bikini.

Mr and Mrs Mockney - make sure you do the zipwire through the trees at Tikal - awesome!

[Michael Palaeologus]

Mrs Mockney will be sure to take charge of the rebuilding of the Mayan ruins, on time and within budget.

[mockney piers]

LOL!!! and for sure extinct civilisation is no excuse, the locals are just undergoing an extended period of underperforming organisational structural renewal.

[fiskaroo]

I up for it!

[citizenED]

Will certainly be there, barring radical lifestyle makeover.

[buggie]

I'm off on a hen night that night.... :'(

Hope to make it in Oct.

[benjaminty]

with bells on!

[Azul]

am off to Lisbon, someone have my share of beers

[SeanMacGabhann]

Lady Mac went along for the first time last night to the Duke and was very impressed.

Of the 3 incarnations on that site I would give

Page 2 - 7/10

Village Inn - 5/10 (harsh as it wasn't there long but from the exterior sign down, things weren't quite right)

Duke - 8.5/10

[david_carnell]

Oompah.

[SeanMacGabhann]

Good timing DC - I was in the Duke last Sunday and Nick The Manager spoke to me about the evening and said he could rustle up some food for the evening in the form of menu samples (no promises mind)

See you there

[georgia]

Am trying to contact the manager to confirm our reserved area and the promise of some food, so will let you know

[citizenED]

Sounds promising. Looking forward to it.

[Bellenden Belle]

Am going on a walking weekend the next day - sixteen miles on day one - so am going to be very good and say that I will see you guys in October - I know I have no concept of popping in for one and a hangover would be a really bad idea.

Have fun - looking forward to hearing about it.

[georgia]

Ok Nick (the manager) has confirmed that he will reserve us some tables from 8.30pm and will be providing a few samples from their menu for us. So see you all there!
