I mentioned at our lasr meeting that we would have an offiste meeting on Tuesday October 20th.  Alwyndor is a residential home in Hove, providing both care an respite, as well as home care services.  It is currently where I reside.

The purpose of this survey is to make achoice for meals.  There are two choices, payment to be made prior to the meeting to allow payment of one amount to Alwyndor-

1. Meal provided by the catering staff at Alwyndor.  The cost will be $15 and there will be three choices all served with salad and a bread roll, specifically:-
   1. Battered fish
   2. Chicken Schnitzel
   3. Lasagne
2. BBQ'd steak in a bap qith salad.  This will be a market price, but around the $15 mark.

I simply want an indication of your preference if you chooose to attend, not your choice.  I will separately send out a notice to see if you are attending, nearer the meeting date but with a sufficient period to advise numbers.

I can advise that the food served here is usually of good quality.

AS I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO SET UP A SURVEY RESPONSE, PLEASE REGISTER IF YOUR PREFERENCE IS FOR THE ALWYNDOR SELECTION OF CATERED MEALS AND DECLINE IF YOU WOULD PREFER THE STEAK IN A BAP.  PLEASE RESPOND BY AUGUST 7TH.
