Catcott Come Dine with Us on Saturday 24th June 2023
The Catcott Village Association would like to invite you and your partner/friend to join your neighbours for an evening of sociable eating and drinking in each other’s homes. You do not need to have a friend/partner to take part. Individuals are welcome.
In exchange for you hosting just one course of the meal for 8 persons, including yourselves, you will meet up to 18 other villagers over the three courses. You’ll have a memorable evening, delicious food and will get to know your neighbours. For example:
| 7.15 – 8.30pm | You wine and dine 6 Catcott neighbours in your home with a starter course plus wine and non-alcoholic drinks | At 8.20pm you open an envelope revealing where you and all your guests will be going for the main course. Walk to main course host’s home. |
| 8.30 – 9.45pm | You are hosted for your main course and you meet 6 other Catcott neighbours. | At 9.35pm your host opens an envelope revealing where you and others will be going for the dessert course. |
| 9.45- 10.45pm | You are hosted for your dessert course and you meet 6 other neighbours. |
The last such evening was before Covid and since then a lot of new people have moved into the village so the Catcott Village Association organising group would like to encourage as many people to take part as possible as it’s a great way to get to know your neighbours.
If you want to take part and would prefer to host a particular course of the meal or if you have a common special dietary need we will do our best to accommodate it. If you don’t enjoy cooking then a simple ready-made meal is fine. No pressure. A few people can request not to host a course. Non hosts are asked to pay £15 per person at the starter course which will be donated to a local charity – in the past it’s been the Children’s Hospice South West.
If you want to take part then please fill in the form below to email Martin Melia. Use the Dietary Requirements and Other Details section if you have any queries.
You must let us know by Saturday 10th June if you wish to take part. Your course and details of guests’ dietary needs will be confirmed by Saturday 17th June to allow you time to shop!
