Big Curry night update.

Thirteen was not an unliucky number for them, what with all that free beer & curry !
So, just a quick update to let you all know what a successful night we had. We managed to raise a little over £800 & with a sponsored parachute jump on the way soon, courtesy of our assistant manager, Alex, this should take it well over the £1000 mark.
 
Pictured above are the thirteen members of the Household Cavalry's Blues & Royals who we invited down for a night on us. They went home with full bellies of Curry & Fuller's Bengal Lancer.  
 
It was a good night with some authentic curries, Special thanks to Nina of V.I.P nuts for her beautifully cooked Punjab chicken curry & use of her secret spices & a thank you also to Neil Reid, one of our in company chefs, for a taste of his mother's 'curry goat', she taught you well mate !
 
 
We are very proud that we are able to hand over a substantial sum & thus help somebody out who laid their life on the line, in the call of duty.
Special thanks also to my staunch loyal regulars for supporting our night, some of whom are pictured left.
During the night we also held a mini auction, the soldiers donated a tour, with lunch afterwards at their barracks in Knightsbridge. Our very own brewery, Fullers, kindly donated a bumper hamper & our local MP, Mr Zac Goldsmith kindly donated afternoon tea, with him, in Parliament, thank you to all of you, we are most gracious.
 
Finally, kind regards also to the team at BigCurry.Org for all their help & assistance with ideas, tweets & promotional material - I promise I will get you some more pubs on board for extra support, speak to you next year !
