Pub Club Dead?

Several years ago, there used to be a Sunday Breakfast Club at The Meon Hut, how about resurrecting that then?
That's not a bad idea, only thing the pub seems to have a few issues since the new people took over, not sure they would do breakfast or want us there. Maybe a different venue would be better, there must be somewhere nearby that would be interested.alyR32 said:

Just a thought There was an Italian morning meet at a café in Alton Recently, seemed to be well received by those attending , is that worth a shout for a brekie meet, meet thread here http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...
Its on the Alton - Basingstoke road just outside Alton so easy to get to, on a road that's good for driving & has loads of parking if a lot coming but it may need to be agreed with them before

They hold a classic meet first Sunday of each month so you would need to avoid that , for me second Sunday is always Bristol so 3rd or fourth would be good
They don't open until 10 on Sunday but that's enough time for a decent drive up

The field is huge but I believe they need some notice, they'll also reserve a long table if you give numbers.

I'd also be well up for this - Alton isn't too far and the roads are great over that way.There was an Italian morning meet at a café in Alton Recently, seemed to be well received by those attending , is that worth a shout for a brekie meet, meet thread here http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

Ok all
See what interest there is in the next few days, also if you could say if generally 3rd or 4th Sunday of the month is preferred we can get a better idea of whether Alton is worth pursuing as a regular meet & start another thread . OBVIOUSLY all subject to it being OK with the venue but it will be better to get an idea of likelihood / numbers before approaching them

Pick a date, bang up a thread, link to it in here and make sure it's clear it's a provisional date until cleared with the venue but you're looking for numbers.See what interest there is in the next few days, also if you could say if generally 3rd or 4th Sunday of the month is preferred we can get a better idea of whether Alton is worth pursuing as a regular meet & start another thread .

Without a fixed date people will be unlikely to put their name down.
Unless there's a clash with anything I'm 100% in as the wife has Roller Derby training on Sundays so I always have a free pass to go and play. The only exception in the next month or so is Remembrance Weekend when I'll be racing at Anglesey.
