Not being English, I wasn't aware that there was an association football fixture in a clashing position with Thursday night. Ah well, most popular looks like being Monday 21st. I'll amend the first post to match.

Monday 21st is in the diary. I might be TVRless though, as the clutch has just decided to give up the ghost.

Why do car clubs meet at pubs, when drinking and driving is out of order?

Because they didn't like it when we last met at the local crematorium.

They have the following qualities:

1. a carpark
2. Tables
3. Chairs
4. Nice barmaids
5. People who don't ask silly questions


Nice to see someone takes these things really seriously.

Jim,

From my perspective, I organise the meet to be at a pub because it is a convenient place to hold it. They serve (good) food, refreshments (both alcoholic and non-alcoholic), have space for 30+ people (including parking) and don't mind if some wish to smoke.

I can see where you are coming from, but there aren't many other places to hold this sort of thing other than the local MacDonalds Drive-Thru.

HTH

Sheepy.

BTW, are you going to come and see how few of us actually drink beer at these meets

Well I suppose if you have a heavy right foot you might make it.

Last orders are at 11.
