Star Inn, Newbury - Friday 4th April

Makefish · 12-03-2008, 11:19

It's been a close call as to the date but a decision needed to be made and I had a slight preference for the 4th so that's when it is!

Date for this meet is Friday 4th starting from 6:30pm onwards.

The pub is in a great location and easy to find and accomodates us very well. As before, arrangements will be made to secure the same area in the pub again. The Star is very easy to find approximately 5 miles from Newbury towards Basingstoke on the Newbury Road.

Hope that you will be able to join us, the last ones have been most enjoyable and look forward to seeing everyone again. New faces are ALWAYS welcome, just make yourself known and we'll make sure you are looked after as only Briskodians can!

Steve

This is the friday night before half term, the roads will be stuffed with those trying to make a quick get away. We live near the A34 & its normally gridlock that night. Might be better moving it back a week, OK still in 1/2 term but quieter.

Also means I can come as Im away on the 4th, might have the new toy by then

**tfboy** · 12-03-2008, 12:27

Damn, I can't make it

I have a work bash at Parc Aventura in Barcelona on Thursday and Friday.

djgritt · 12-03-2008, 12:50

I'll likely be in Singapore still - so a bit of a trek

cheezemonkhai · 12-03-2008, 12:51

I'm not going near the M3/A34 on half term start friday, didn't realise that.

Babs · 12-03-2008, 13:13

No can do, sorry!

Mark/everyone don't panic about the bloody half term, traffic is not as bad as people make out! Besides this year half term is spread over 4 weeks, some schools/areas have decided on different dates for half term so it wont be as much of a headache as you might think!

Another kind offer but I'm sure a Ford Mondeo isn't really right for a Briskoda meet!
