Until recently, I've lived in the neighbourhood for about 10 years. I know pretty much everywhere within walking distance that sells food. Your options are pretty limited: - Speedy Peppers on Princess Street (about £10/pizza) - The bunch of places opposite All Saints Park (about £8/pizza) - Errr... an assortment of cafes/bars/restaurants that might struggle to cater for 15 people for £100. - Possibly, and it'll be a stretch at your budget, East-z-East near the Ibis. They might do a large takeaway buffet/finger-food order. That said, Odder across the road might be tempted into doing something buffet-like given the meets are on a weeknight and it's regular/easy- ish cash. So *might* Lass O'Gowrie, but they're not geared up for external catering. However, Gareth (the landlord), would let you have upstairs for nowt if you wanted to change venue I expect and buffets are about £6/head. There are other bars nearby as well: Revolution, Font, Pure, all of which are known to do food and may do a buffet-style take-out. Kro2 might as well, but their prices are a little steep for catering options. Worth talking to them though. Just get a buffet option and a bunch of napkins and you're sorted. That said, Speedy Peppers does pizza and is open 6pm-v.late, as do a whole bunch of places in the village about 10 minutes walk away. > - Most people should like the food I'll eat pizza, that doesn't mean it's my first choice. :-) I know that I am very much in a minority in coding circles though. > - The provider must be open to accepting these scale of orders. Everybody around there will given a bit of notice. Weeknights are pretty quiet. They'll be glad of the turnover normally. > Also, if anyone has any other wild ideas lets hear them.

Oh, right, well, errr... never mind then. *I* thought it was a good idea. -- Paul Robinson http://vagueware.com :: [email protected] :: +44 (0) 7740 465746 Vagueware Limited is registered in England/Wales, number 05700421 Registered Office: 3 Tivoli Place, Ilkley, W.
