I could be interested in a social get together, if anything just to get out and some new verifications as it's been many years since I last met and now that I'm single again it would be nice to get out. |

Unfortunately we are but we think this is a great idea so we will keep an eye on your next one if all goes well. Would you consider the same sort of idea but in glasgow ? Or will it always be in Edinburgh? Xx |

We will organise something once restrictions allow. Its still to difficult for people to mingle etc in venues at the moment with current restrictions x"
We can’t wait. We were really excited about the one last year… then lockdown fecked it for everyone. |

For that many people, I’d assume it was a set menu.
So are you actually coming??"
I would love to come along, but I haven’t signed up for it as I’m afraid it cannot legally go ahead. |

Because any restaurant following guidelines cannot allow a group of 100 people to dine together. |

Surely, for the social's sake, we could arrange a marriage or fake a death. |

Is it tables of six from four households at the minute ? (Not been paying attention to the news tbh I’m still on the fence yet about whether I’m coming but I’ll pay my deposit anyways just in case)
If it is will you be randomly putting the tables together or will we be able to put in our requests of who were sat with ? |

That restaurant in town I booked a few times for pre Cjs/socials would easily be able to hold 100 and keep enough distance that it would adhere to the guidelines !? Pretty sure they would be happy to take a large booking on the understanding the tables were divided out to coincide with the rules it’s defo worth thinking about.
I’ve seen a lot of works nights out lately them taking up maybe half dozen tables in some places I’ve been to over the last two months and they asked if tables could be put together and staff were a strict no, was mad because they were all working in one office/venue together and didn’t even sit at the same tables as the folk they car shared with etc |

But they would still be breaking the rules and could lose their license  |

Like all fab socials the finer details are never revealed till on the day, otherwise anyone could turn up or disaster like many years ago the details ended up in the papers and the even was cancelled, I personally wouldn’t be attending any socials that the organisers give out the details beforehand, it’s in Edinburgh city centre so you’ll find google will tell you what the restrictions are !! Same as any other restaurant in the city, contrary to public misconception fab socials are actually well behaved, more than any works night out for sure because people don’t want to draw unwelcome attention !! |

"I’m sure it’s getting sent privately to each person or couples email! This way it stays private "
That's the way most Social organisers do things, and whereas MOST people know to keep things private, you do get the occasionally idiot that looks to ruin things.
There have probably been a LOT more, but I know of two Scottish socials where someone saw fit to leak the details to the press. |

I know quite a few restaurant owners, one in particular has a lovely building and private dining areas with a roof terrace let me know if I can help |

Alcohol will cure that !! "

Curious, how many were at the event? Glad to hear it went so well "
There were about 4/6 people per table and I think there was about 10 tables plus a few turned up later as well. |
