Newbury Meet - Friday 18th May

Makefish · 27-04-2007, 16:32

Something new, rather than a Basingstoke area meet going to see what interest there is in one for the Newbury area?. Being that it's pretty central and easy to get to with the M4 and A34. Have not looked at a venue yet but there are some very nice pubs round Newbury so I'm sure we could find something suitable.

Edit: This is now a definate for Friday 18th May at The Swan , meet from 6:30pm onwards

Express your interest by adding your name to the list below:

1. Makefish

MissKia · 27-04-2007, 16:52

Yeah, sounds good. Newbury's a bit closer to me

Great Idea

Newburys great by me

If you get struck for venues actually near Newbury try the Bullington Cross inn, It sits inside the roundabout at the junction of the A303 & the A34

It was used by the Subaru community when I was part of that many years ago.

I will admit in advance that its only about 5 miles from me but its very accesible from all directions & has a huge car park

Or maybe save it for a bigger day time meet in the summer

This is only a feeler thread so if the interest is there and we can accomodate everyone there is no reason why it should'nt be the following Friday, 25th May?.

MissKia · 27-04-2007, 18:02

The 25th would be no good for me as working night shift. Sorry.

Bottler · 27-04-2007, 18:43

Am up for it, but am a meet virgin, be gentle with me!

Newbury is just too far for me to make it.
LB was just about doable if i could get away from work on time but Newbury is miles away and travelling the M4 the wrong way on a Friday night? Nightmare!
Have car will travel most weekends though
