The 1st Annual TRMCCC Dinner and Award Ceremony  Dec 94

From: Howard Bradley

Subject: CRICKET DINNER - 25 MARCH 1994

After months of careful preparation I am finally in a position to unveil the plans for our inaugural cricket dinner. In order to allay suspicions that allowing me to organise a meal inevitably results In a cheap and nasty curry, I would like to describe the rigorous methodology that 1 have employed in arriving at the choice of restaurant.

It has been decided, by me, that each year we will honour the occasion of our annual dinner by sampling the cuisine of a leading test playing nation. Having scoured the telephone directory for details of establishments specialising in New Zealand, Australian or Sri Lankan food with absolutely no success at all, 1 finally struck lucky when 1 turned my attention to Indian restaurants. This year, therefore, we will be travelling to the Imperial Tandoori in Lambeth for an evening of sophisticated conversation and a reasonably priced and eminently edible curry.

The complete timetable for the evening is set out below:

For those of you who have not sampled the delights of the Imperial Tandoori before, I have attached a map so that sad people who can't turn up for the whole thing, probably claiming some sort of client-related commitment, can turn up late and not have to drink as much as they might otherwise have to.
