First pub meet???

We used to have informal meets at the Boatyard pub at Riley Green but after its recent refurb it appears to have gone a bit up market price wise, so maybe need somewhere else near the M65 corridor more reasonably priced?
Two places spring to mind, The Walton Fox at Bamber Bridge, or maybe the Sycamore Farm at Burnley obviously we would need to book, also another thing to consider at this time of year which is better a weekday evening or Sunday lunchtime?
Your thoughts would be appreciated?

Hi Neil

As mentioned via FB I'll be attending (in the MG6 BTCC Edition) - Simon (and also Marianne) brought the meet to our attention and asked if we'd like to attend as we do a lot with Simon Davies and North Wales, Cheshire & the Wirral MGF Register.

Another local MG6 owner is going to convoy along with me. I've asked a couple of customers who live Widnes way to see if they fancy popping along with their MGTF and LE500.

We'll be convoying along with Simon and Julie Davies.

Looking forward to meeting everyone.

Mark. John Woods Motorcare

I wouldn't mind a pub meeting on a warm sunny lazy sunday afternoon, grab a beer or two and perhaps watch a game.
