Perhaps our 'Special Guest' had an ulterior motive, Do not forget that Techspeed is just down the road.

Unfortunetly I cant see who voted for which date, but so far looks like we have to following coming on Monday:-

Steve
Keith
Pete?
Al & Jeanette

Lizzy & Gareth - possible

If anyone else want to pop along or if I've missed anyone, can you add your name to the list as I will need to think about booking a table if we get many more.
I'll be aiming to get there for 12-12:30, so if anyone beats me there can you try and grab a table :D

Secret ballets are like that Steve. :D You don't know how people vote until the count is all over but with so few votes in this one, it is easy to work this one out. ;)

Will get to Queens Head myself cross country and try to get there at 12:00 ish, assuming I have woken up after the Anglia run on Sunday. lol. See you all there.

For anyone who has not been to the pub before, it is next to the village pond, with a nice flowering cherry(?) tree at the entrance.

I'm afraid that Gareth and I won't be able to make this as unfortunately Gareth has to work on Monday - grrrr! Hopefully we'll make it to the next one instead...

Was a good lunch with good company. Got home just before the rain came down too and managed to avoid all the twigs and branches on the roads.

So who owned the green F in the car park & the silver TF on the road at the pub entrance?? Pity they not join our meet and swell our ranks :roll:

yep, very enjoyable.....the chicken was excellent :P the pudding....well best not mention that :oops:

I think the green F was owned by a guy of 'some' years of age, he was with a group in the car park that stared at us when we left....probably cus Steve's exhaust drowned out their conversation :lol: . Didn't see a TF tho :?

oohh the Crunchie word was used :lol: Have to turn up again next month to see if Pete can repeat the performance in the pub - have to have a camera ready next time though :D

June might be a hard month to have a Sunday meet though with all the events happening :( or is that really a :thumbsu: Might have to be a very very late in the month meet???

Pub looks good Jeanette. Straight to the dessert/pudding menu for me :D

Not sure if we can fit a Sunday meet in June with Silverstone coming up?

We could aim for the 29th - a late, late June natter - or there is the 22nd if people are not going to the MG in the trees event. What does every one think?
