If you could send anything to emmadriver2000@gmail that would be smashing, cheers.
Big thanks lads for all your help, some great ideas that I’ll be sure to use. Very much appreciated. Wish me luck! 
We encourage parents to attend. It is usually the cadets who are miss-informing their parents about this. WE sit parents and cadets far away from each other, the extra adults help subsidise cost for cadets too.
That I don’t hold with. The CWC should be subsidising cadets, not paying guests.
Let the guests have a cheaper night as I said the cost of a night like this isn’t just the ticket price it’s all the other bits that go with it, if nothing else taxis and over inflated drink prices.
I don’t go to dinners after attending two Wing ones ‘when I were a lad’ and the food was appalling and the venue had bar prices I think invented for the night, bearing in mind this was 23 years ago a round for 5 with nothing spectacular came to £26. I’d paid less in a pub in the West End of London for more people a few weeks beforehand.
Nobody seems to mind. It’s a night for the cadets more than anything. If guests want to come then great, they can pay the same as the staff. No one is forcing anyone else to come.
