ESSENTIAL PUB CLUB, April 29 2014

[ecain63]

Weather looks decent from 6pm onwards.

Yes indeed, looks like its wet mid afternoon then clearing around 6pm to be 30'C in the shade. :-)

Traditionally, not everybody on the list turns up, but, the field is going to be a bit wet as it stands at the moment!

The fields there never suffer with being waterlogged as they are chalk and the drainage is superb, few years back it was heavy rain all day and cleared at 4pm, yet the field was perfect.

Are pub clubs always at the same place? Looks very inconvenient to get to for me with no car or license?

Once you're off the M27 and M3 it is actually quite a nice drive, but I agree, it is right in the middle of nowhere and a bit of a pain to suffer the motorways to get to it. On a nice day it is quite nice to have a drive after work though.

Maybe if you asked and mentioned where you were based, you could get a lift with someone?

[benwoodcock]

So are they always int eh same place or not? :P

Pics on essentialcars.co.uk seem to suggest it was at west meon (sic?) last time.

I'm thinking of getting a lift for next time, but I have 2500 words of law to do today before 4pm and another 2500 for tomorrow.
Thanks for help.

[ecain63]

Meon is the usual location (suits some better than others lol) but every so often we go to Cadnam for the evening.

Meon is a good location but if im honest I prefer the car park at The Empress of Blandings as youre all parked together whether rich or poor. Meon had a bit of a 'money over here, riff-raff over there' feel at times last year. Still a worthwhile event though.

[benwoodcock]

Cadnam isn't ideal either, will ask for a lift next month from near soton uni/highfield/portswood if I'm free.

Bailing out of this one as it's still not ready due to this shoddy weather but i'll bring it to the next one when it should be all painted and complete!. I'll pop along anyway for a pint tho ;-)

[ecain63]

^^^much want for that car. How much is it for sale for you say? lol.

[richalfa]

I'm still building it,seems to be taking forever ..its not for sale ..maybe soon enough when it's finished or when i'm broke and homeless afterwards lol

Rich, is there a build thread on that? It looks epic?

Only sticking my nose in here as originally from Hants and a West Meon/A32/A272 regular so keep an eye for meets when I'm back in that neck of the woods.
