I'l still hoping to make it, and may bring the Mrs and Junior too, but does anyone know if the FF is a 'child freindly' pub as such?


It should be, it's very similar to Wolverton House and the Barn in MK. I think I recall climbing frames/things in the back garden area (I think they can be seen from the A5 too).

Maybe we should all wear a red carnation and carry a copy of the Times under our right arm

My family (and other animals) know I'm out this time so no-one should unexpectadly call round this time, anyway I'm going to have all the lights turned off so no one will think I'm in.

Got to go to college on Thursday, need to decide of I'm doing the mechanical course they're offering this year. What about tomorrow?

Edited again to remove the reference to training, I think I'll skip it for one night (don't tell my sensei!!)

And here was I thinking the sensible option was to just ask the barmaid where the PH lot were sitting



You mean we're not standing in the car park freezing our ass's off like we do in surrey?


I can't believe you do that
....or, yes I can

The blue boxes on the A505 near the junctions aren't working yet, should still have their covers on. Been like that for ages.

I'm just back from a recce of the pub with FWD and Trooper (Thanks for the help guys!!).

Monday is a quiet night for them. Parking is not an issue (there's loads of space which you can't see from the road). The beers is OK, they have Guiness and they do food which looked pretty good.

If you're in the area, be there on Monday!

Yah hooligan

Did you hear what I said when I pulled up alongside you? Following the chat about people cutting us up at roundabouts I think I got as far as "Are you going to cut........" and you'd gone

Thats a bit of a personal question :P

One word of warning for you all, as you leave the pub in the dark, the lane out may look like it goes straight on for a few yards...it doesn't...
