"Old Contemptibles"
No, this isn't the name your committee is now adopting, it's where the next exciting ALLICE social event kicks off.
http://www.nicholsonspubs.co.uk/theoldcontemptiblesedmundstreetbirmingham/
Meet for a drink and chat from 5.30 pm onwards on Thursday 19th May. The evening will develop 'organically' leading possibly to a meal somewhere (the sausages at the 'Contemptibles' are world famous but there are also Nepalese, Indian, Thai, Macdonalds (!) and many more restaurants in the vicinity) and/or who knows what else!
Go on, treat yourself - you know you want to.
