PUB CHOICE!!

I was hoping for Mr Williams to do a recce but no news yet so decision time.

Take a look here:

http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=d&sourc ... 53809&z=13

A = OTTER
B = YEOMAN
C = BROOKLANDS

I have phoned both and managed to get through to the Otter who unsuprisingly say the Otter is best but apparently the Yeoman is slightly quieter.

It's not possible to book on Sundays because of the early bird deal so maybe we should go to the quieter one. What do you think?

Car parks both have about 50 places looking at the satellite view.

Menu here:

Go to the quieter one, then we can liven it up!!

[stephendell]

Does that mean you're coming then?

Yes,
Got the Megane ST on the road today so need to put some mileage on it.
Do you require parts???

[stephendell]

Hopefully I'll be in the 610 if I go and have another late night session shortly so won't have much space for spares.

Remind me what you've got that's small...

However if Si21 manages to get his van fixed tomorrow that will be a different story!

I will bring up as many small bit n bobs that I can dig out tomorrow and bring them up so you can take your pick.
but I may be late!!!!

[stephendell]

What did you do to get that ETA? Did say you were walking !!!

I'll let you know asap if Si is bringing the van.

Has the new bumper (or at least the bottom spoiler) definately gone?

Don't suppose you've got a matching red Sparco Kevlar bucket seat from a 21 Europa Cup lying about have you

What did you do to get that ETA? Did say you were walking !!!

At first it wouldn't give me a choice but I managed to get it down to 2hr 50mins if I ran at 25mph.

Has the new bumper (or at least the bottom spoiler) definately gone?

Sorry yes, it went just before chirstmas

Don't suppose you've got a matching red Sparco Kevlar bucket seat from a 21 Europa Cup lying about have you

I 'll just check

[stephendell]

Thanks.

No rips, tears or fag burns please

Yes, can confirm I will be there.

FINAL INSTRUCTIONS:

BROOKLANDS

Meet at Mercedes Benz World, Weybridge KT13 0SL at 11.00 am

Mercedes-Benz World is just a few minutes from Junction 10 of the M25. Follow the A3 towards London taking the first exit and turn left at the roundabout onto the A245 (signposted to Weybridge). Continue along the A245 for approximately 1.5 miles. At the second roundabout turn right onto Sopwith Drive.

Continue straight over two roundabouts, you have arrived at Mercedes-Benz World.

It is hard to gauge how long we will stay here. It will depend on the general level of interest, if anyone takes a driving experience (from £30), if the majority also want to visit the Brooklands museum and how hungry every one is! There is a cafe though to keep us going.

PUB

It would seem sensible to go to the closest and quietest pub which is the Yeoman:

The Yeoman West Byfleet
Old Woking Road
West Byfleet
Surrey
KT14 6JA
Tel: 01932344553

2.63 miles away from Brooklands

They are busiest between 12:00 - 3.00 which is likely to be the time we will arrive so no escaping that. Unless Brooklands is particularly interesting I would anticipate we would be arriving at the pub around 2.00 pm. However if you are planning on just going to the pub then it's probably best to call one of the party at Brooklands who will be able to give you a better ETA on the day.
