Last time we met at the Brewery Tap pub for drinks before hand, I expect we'll do so again. Its literally 30secs walk up Castle St on the opposite side of the road (opposite the Police station if that helps).

And there is parking right outside, £30 all night!!

Or I can meet you prior to parking and show you the Broad St Mall car park - closer than the Oracle to Sweeneys and 2 mins walk through the civic centre...

Is it going to have a choice of beers this time ?, if not the pub we ended up in was ok, at least it had more than one beer on tap.

Hobgoblin gets my vote, great beer, very funny memories!

[Dizeee]

Do they only serve pies?

No. But you would'nt go to a curryhouse and have pizza would you

They're delicious

[Dizeee]

Just wondered that was all. I'm not a great pie eater but after all the ravings I may have to give one a go.

Right, all this talk of pies is too hard to read about without knowing I'm going to get one
I'm in, especially after I missed the Little Thief breakfast today.

[john_r]

What's the plan re meeting up tomorrow eve? Just meet at Sweeney's as their beer is decent?

[HappyS3owner]

I'll probably drive so if anyone is struggling with snow still or whatever and is vaguely on route just let me know.
