Castle Combe & TVR day @ Haynes Motor Museum are both Monday. Chris & I would be up for either.

We were thinking of Castle Coombe on Monday, but I'm thinking that I need a weekend off.

Probably decide nearer the weekend......

Ohhh, that is soooo Wickford.

Hadn’t really thought where to go really, just figured if the sun was out we could just go for a run, find a nice pub, have lunch, run back. Reeso, you may well be in with a shout Monday as the BBC weather man says the odd rain cloud Sunday. I’m easy either day. There's South, or North..

we could go east or west mind you not very far east so I suppose that's narrowed it down a bit

anyone know any good pubs for food and location?? there's one I know just outside brighton on the cliffs. I also know the oldest freehouse in Britain (well one of them anyway) but thats on the other side of the M25 so dont so much fun driving.... anyother suggestions??

I did think of a run down Brighton way but as long as we missed the town cos I'm thinking Bank holiday traffic - anyone else any views on a run down Brighton way ?

How about N. Essex/ S Suffolk way. Good roads and loads of pubs!? If you want seaside, Clacton/Walton/Frinton!?

I think you may be right. Perhaps we should postpone. Clacton sounds an idea when the weather gets better though, make a nice change from Southend. Tell you what, if the forecast changes around Friday, I'll stick up another post and see if anyone wants to go for the Reeso short range plan (medium to long range depending on roundabout count).

Why don't we arrange a time and place for the Suffolk idea and if it's crap of Monday morning we can decide on the day ? How's that ? That all right with you Saville ?
