Save the Date - X-mas Party
Citizens!
Please all mark down Saturday, 6 December 2008, in your calendar as we will have our traditional X-mas party then!
The day coincides with our last league games of 2008 (Summer Palace playing Azzurri at 10am and City playing Celtics at 4pm) and no one has to play on Sunday. No excuses.
Party will likely start at 7 or 8pm. More details, including venue and dress code, will follow as the date approaches.
Cheers,
Jochen
