edited August 2011 in General
I need about 6/8 bodies to help me from approx 4pm- 8pm (or any 2 hour slot that might suit)

Any willing mums, dads, aunts uncles or indeed sons and daughters who can offer their services would be brilliant.

I need:

1 sous-chef (assistant burger, hot-dog flipper!)

2 maitre d' - very important- front of house (telling people what they can have with their burger!)

2 sommeliers- also key roles describing the vintage, bouquet and the pouring of the fine wines on offer (Tesco plonk!)

2 food disribution technicians (servers!)

2 cash flow regulators (working the till!)

Seriously tho- I need YOUR help for some or part of the day. PLEASE!!

Let me know below what you can offer to help out.

Thankyou!!

    Hi Chris

    I'll be around, so count me in - flipping dogs or whatever. Do we have a contingency for refreshments in case of that british summer problem - rain?

    Put me down to help Chris, I can manage any of the required tasks as I help run a fundraising BBQ at various large local events for our local scout troop several times a year and have done all of the above jobs before.

    Hi Chris

    Put me down as a helper. I'll have the boys with me so probably a job away from the BBQ would be safer - happy to be on the till / drinks whatever else is needed.

    Chris,

    Me and Emma can help out too with food/drink but probably can't make it before 6 as we are both working.

    Cheers
