W suggest you liaise with each other first though to ensure you do not exceed the table size. If you do not mind who you are seated with and would rather mingle then do not express any preference and we will select a table for you. 4) We need the FULL name and title (Mr. Mrs. Ms. Miss etc ) of ALL attendees and their MINI2 profile if they have one ………… for example Soggycornflakes – Mr. Bob Southgate Guest - Mrs. Jackie Southgate 5) We need a postal address to which we can send your Charity Ball Tickets.
