The Challenger Message Board Christmas dinner this year (in conjunction with the NE Mopar Muscle Ass. membership) is to be held at The Eastern Lounge http://www.easternlounge.co.uk/ at 7:30pm on Wednesday the 5th of December.
All Challenger board members are welcome.

But I will not expect a rush for bookings. :lol:

The thought is there though. :wink2:

I love food like that, afterall it's been years since I have eaten any traditional American dishes, I cook my own Mid-easten food, learned it from mum, she uses a lot of Cumin, olive oil,Cinnamon, Garlic, butter, pepper, and grape leaves. I wont eat any Lamb or Crustaceans though. The Hot spicy dishes are a bit much for me anymore but I still love the Curry flavor, and Cumin spices. Thanks for the doggy bag offer. If I attended they would take one look at me, and promptly put me to work! :mrgreen:

It is an Indian/Chinese/Thai fusion. All cooked with fresh ingredients so it can be frozen if you want a carry-out. :wink:

I forgot to take my camera! :oops:

But Red had his. And if he survived the night he will post them here I am sure.

It was also the 30th birthday for my Cowboy boots. So he took a photo of them as well.

Thanks Wayne. I need to focus and sell some parts I dont need, stop buying 440 parts, get my passport, and save more for the final months to Santa Pod. :thumbsup:

I really am looking forward to it. My mother might accompany me though. She wants to fly to the middle east after Santa Pod. I havent been there since the mid 60's when my brother Jimmy and I accompanied her over there. She is a gourmet cook so we will eat well! :mrgreen:
