It's what's available mate....
There isn't a changeover date at Abbey so when you turn up you have a look and decided where you fancy.

You can go where you like if there not fully booked up, just talk to the baliff when you arrive on site...
They usually let you know what's happening and point you in the right direction

Hi everyone,

I know the thread isn't quite as busy as usual at this time of year but I have been asked to gauge just exactly what sort of grub everyone'd like to see on the menu at Abbey next season..

So.. In light of the fact that we now have access to a head Chef and a fully staffed kitchen in the new on-site Restaurant, I would like to start a poll to vote in a completely new menu! Sebastien, the owner, wants to offer you all a mix of both French and English cuisine so that you can experience local produce from the region alongside some traditional fare?! I have based mine upon my preferred grub while bankside!

Mon - Chicken Curry with Bombay Potatoes and either Pilau Rice or Chips
Tue - Spaghetti Bolognaise with Garlic Baguette
Wed - Chilli Con Carne and Rice
Thu - Sausage, Mashed Potato, Onions and thick Gravy
Fri - OBVIOUSLY is Fish and Chips night
Sat - Dine in the Restaurant
Sun - Beer, Chocolate and Crisps!!

PLEASE let me know all your thoughts people, as ever Abbey are striving to keep on top of their game and offer you a holiday 'your way'

Kind regards,

Ru

Now now Tom,

You know the rules for the FCC.... No cheating or swotting up beforehand, just get there, get on n deal with the draw LOL!!

Top end of Heron has been producing a fair few recently but once again you're following the Swedes and they're rinsing Heron I think?!

White Tips came from 12 along with a load more fish last week. Marshy (Rob not Russ ) had bagged a few from 11 this week but has now moved to pastures new and Anders (the Swedish booking agent) bagged the 'Unknown' mirror at 57+ from 9-11 ish (didn't look at the pics properly!)

Been very mild but WET the past 7 days so don't over feed them as they're not ready yet!

Regards,

R

Ru
Is there a draw for swims or is it a case of turn up and pick what you fancy from what is available or do you have to pre-book a swim ?
Are you sure?
