    D'you mean you're going down the pub tonight Rach? Lucky old you. Mrs RB is out at a Health Board meeting, so I'm stuck at home with nothing decent on the telly. Well, there's 22 grown men rolling around in a mudpit somewhere near Chelsea, but there won't be much entertainment!

    Aye, fair play and all credit to Arsenal. They played really well, and I think they outclassed Real Maduds. Tonight, however, Barca will be too much for Chelsea. I may be proved wrong though.

    BTW come on Villareal! Bitter? Moi?

    RB - I went to the Nou Camp a couple of weeks ago to watch Barce and I thought they weren't all that against the bottom team. Chelsea will beat them today.

    Just adding myself to the list. Support team can't get to Paris until Sunday (grr!) so I'm hoping pasta and company will keep me from panicing too much...

    Well done again Rach. Im jumping on the social bandwagon. If I'm pushing the numbers to high for the pasta meal I'll leave the nippers with their grand parents. Hell, that's the only reason they were invited.

    Sorry to join so late. Just saw this thread boinged (is that a word?) on the general Paris one. Don't think I'll make the Sat do, but certainly will be there for the post-race tipple. Am I wrong or is it at the James Joyce?

    Morning

    Have noted the new additions and changed restaurant reservation accordingly. The reservation is now 50 people (a few spare places in case anyone else joins in) at 7pm. A little earlier than previously arranged but the manager asked if we could be there early as it will be such a big night for them.



    Graz, I'll be making sure you eat double portions of pasta so that we keep you off the drips this year!! :)

    Yes Andy, the James Joyce on Sunday evening. I'll speak to the manager again later and report back on whether they allow children, what food will be on offer, whether they'll have any decent wine, etc. If the wine's carp I might have to move us to Fouquet's or somewhere!! :)
