whos up for D&B social

Certainly gets my interest!

However (from the website)

This is no cottage - the house is as huge as it is luxurious. Your first impression is one of grandeur as you drive through the wrought-iron gates up the wide sweeping drive and park beside the splendid 3-metre high ornamental fountain.

Luxurious? could end up with the place getting a wee bit trashed

when i said a little bit like this i ment the cattle shed next door

Cattle shed? nah, still flammable

A large camping barn might be a better idea - something like http://www.swarthghyll-farm.co.uk/htm/Bunk_Barns.html

i can just see guy stagering around the gardens with a boltle of red in one hand huge stogy in the other trying to find the foutain to waz in

LMFAO

Hmmm. Some options here - http://www.peakdistrictonline.co.uk/content.php?categoryId=10139

I was thinking this would be more your style:

The swan is thrown in for free-- attachment is not available --

it will have to be far from civlization otherwise will have half the north yorks police turn up.

they do like a good knees up

I can imagine the booking conversation easily.

Moi: "Hi, i'd like to hire the barn please"
Them: "Certainly Sir, how many people?"
Moi "Er, say, 30"
Them: "Very good sir"
Moi "Er, one other thing"
Them "Of course Sir"
Moi: "we'll probably be in uniforms"
Them ".........what kind of uniforms?"
Moi "Er, You're not Jewish are you?"
