Hi Matt, I was thinking about how we could meet up in Glasgow Central.

You should wear a huge sign on your chest saying "RC, come and get me".

You have no idea how tempting that is Dave...

Am trying to arrange transport but at the moment it looks likely I will be arriving at Queen Street around 2/3pm on the Friday.

I was thinking of going to the Mitchell to chase up a few things first. What are your thoughts on this??

Sorry you cant make it jrt but thank you so much for letting me know most appreciated 
Louise Welcome aboard, I will add your name  to the list

OK now for an update, I have reserved a table at the Cail Bruich
 and they have said as long as we are there by 6.30 we will still be able to have the pre-theatre meal but as its extremely busy they normally expect folks to leave their tables after 2 hours,
After the meal the venue I have picked is the Oran-Mohr, This is right next to the restaurant,
  http://www.oran-mor.co.uk/
The Oran-Mohr is an old church, when I looked at there website I noticed they also do a pre theatre meal , so I checked it out with them also Just In case
they have asked me for £10 a head to reseave the table but are willing to come and go a bit on that as I am organizing a large party( I have to go and pay the day before or as soon as we arrive) , but the gentleman I spoke to looked at the bookings and said that he can put us in from 5.30 to 7.30 then we would move to the bar they Do need at least a weeks notice, for confirmation and numbers, for the meal which would mean definite numbers bye the latest Friday night
Could you give me you thoughts on this Please, I think the 5.30 sitting might be a bit to early for some folks so let me know.
There's no prob with the reservation for the Cail Bruich then to the Oran Mohr for a drink but i just thought I would see what you thought

Sybil - Did you have a look at the menus?

The last time I was at Oran Mhor, there wasn't much of a choice and it was a bit pricey at that. Haven't been to Cail Bruich so can't comment.

I would go for the Cail Bruich but am quite happy to go with the flow.

£10 a head deposit - I think they're 'at it'
Would we get a refund if our meal was £9.99  ;D   ;D   ;D
