hummmm tried this on google and it has com up with a farm?

Google Maps

How close to the farm is the pub ?

Makefish · 17-08-2007, 08:56

Try the map link in the first post, that'll get you close enough! Once you are on the right road between Basingstoke and Newbury you could'nt possibly miss it anyway.

Cheers anyways

Anyone need any bulbs as I am sure I can bring some along from work?!?!?

Allow plenty of Time, half the UK comes down the A34 on a Friday night in the summer

Will, as Steve said, you won't miss it. As you come down the A339 from Newbury, it'll be on your right hand side (as google maps suggests). I drove along there a couple of weeks ago on the way to see Rob / Angie and Dewey and noticed it on the side of the road as I went up the A339. It's unmissable

**tfboy** · 17-08-2007, 09:24

Last call if someone wants something from work

I'll edit my original posts later on today.

Chris, aren't you tempted with what you texted me yesterday?
