October STAFFS/SHROPS Meet - Mon 13th @ The Lamb, Edgemond

[v6ter]

OCTOBER STAFFS/SHROPS PH MEET - MONDAY 13TH

When: MONDAY 13TH OCTOBER

WHERE: The Lamb, Edgemond, Newport, Shropshire (approx 14 miles from Stafford, 9 miles from Telford)

See Website for location: http://www.thelambedgmond.co.uk

__________________________________________________
Why the change in location?

Due to the much publicised problems associated with the last inn and the rumours of closure for one week, I didnt want to risk this meet not going ahead.

The Lamb is a suitable alternative short term. We hope to be back at 'The Last' in November.

I agree the fox is superb, but not really a drinkers pub (or car enthusiasts pub). However I was only talking to my wife last night about the summer meeets being held there as the large outside area is immediately next door to the car park. We wont be disturbing the diners that way.

FFS!!!!!! Forgot. Racing round all day, making sure all your boilers get repaired and didn't even have a pint of cider all evening. Apologies. Not foolish enough to say it'll never happen again. Bernie
