   I Ampthill Looking Forward to 

• Ampthill Festival Progressive Supper - 13th March 2010 - from 7.30pm - You will be asked to host either a starter, main or dessert course for 6 people including yourselves. For the other 2 courses you will go to other homes with different people and then we all end up at one house for coffee.  As it is a fund raiser for Ampthill Festival there is a charge of £10 per person - great value as you will be guaranteed to enjoy yourself!
  
  If you live outside Ampthill you will most probably be asked to host a starter course to make the logistics of getting from one house to another easier. It is a fabulous night whilst supporting the Festival. For more details or to take part contact Katy Masters by email katymasters50@hotmail.com  or call 07812 905845
