| Re: Newbury Meet - Friday 18th May What time is the meet likely to be? I have college during the day so was hoping it would be some time in the evening? If it is during the day I may have to re-arrange certain lessons, media studies and the like. All the best, |

| Briskodian | Re: Newbury Meet - Friday 18th May The swan gets my vote, still a nice place... or just down the road, 500 m or so is nelson's diner, a 50s american theme diner, which is pretty good.

| Re: Newbury Meet - Friday 18th May I dont know anything about the Diner but if its a restaurant type establishment can someone check that they are happy for some people not to eat as not everybody wants a meal Also what sort of numbers can they accept, if we need to prebook it makes it hard for those who might/mightnot be able to make it or anyone deciding at the last minuite to come

| Re: Newbury Meet - Friday 18th May I think that for the reasons Stuart has stated in the above post that we should perhaps stick to something a little more traditional this time but investigate the diner for future possible meets. With that in mind the suggestion as to The Swan seems as good a place as any so that will be our venue for the first one.

Anyone coming from the south up the A34 come off at Tothill services (shell) & take the 4640 ( the old road to Newbury before the By pass was built)

| Re: Newbury Meet - Friday 18th May Diner is only about 40 capacity, and shares the spaces with a car dealer and petrol station, doubt there would be the room for cars and people. Myself and Willy03** whatever he calls himself may stop by if work permits. |
