Hey Andrew - I did wonder from the Facebook updates/photos. Definitely come and say hi.

It's delicious and great value for money, served in a warm friendly environment with quality ales and... oops. wink

Haddenham here, with my GT86 :-)
What colour is it? I'm in Aylesbury too, and see quite a few GT86s about generally while walking to work over the railway bridge by Griffin Lane.

In fact, an orange one got a bit of a slide on this morning around the roundabout, so top marks if that was you wink

I think I'm busy Saturday but if I seem to be free, I'll head down in the Monaro/Alfa smile

Do we have numbers to make this a goer then? Also, can someone remind me of the venue and timings?

For those who made it, it was good to meet you, for those who didn't , we'll try again another day. If anyone came along after about 1:30 and wondered why the car park was empty, apologies.
We discovered that we had chosen a cafe that is closed at lunchtime and were getting cold and wet so we went to the Kings Hotel for a coffee to warm up.
Hopefully next time, the weather will be better and a few more people can make it.

Likewise. Drove past the woolpack on the way back, looks a decent summer setting for a meet

The place to go for a lunchtime weekend meet, although it's about 25 miles from Aylesbury, is the Super Sausage café on the A5. The drive along the A413 through Buckingham is a pleasant one. The food is superb and inexpensive, a big carpark and it's much frequented by people who are in to motoring, 2 and 4 wheels.

My wife and I (we are in Weedon) drive up there for a lunch most weekends.

If it's open on a weekend it already beats our original venue!
