Anyone up for this again?

We seem to have a good night, good food and a good turn out .. at the Great North Inn, just off the A1.

Just wondered if we should do it again soon ..

Err, Count Me In!

Get some numbers and i'll get it booked again, could do with another one before the nights get to dark too early eh.

Right chaps .. lets have a few dates thrown around ...

Would Thursday 2nd October be too soon?

I was thinking more towards the end .. we have a lot on in the next few weeks and Graeme is away more than home ..
Thursday 23rd or 30th ??

Doesn't matter about the dark nights .. fortunately pubs have lights and we have warm coats..

think the 23rd is on school half term week.....don't know whether that makes it better or worse

Im completely easy,

For obvious reasons, id do it every week!

Whenever it is count me in ! - and possibly prizes for Sud drivers again !
John.

You're a star John! Thank you.

Be good to see you there with less drama on route this time hopefully.

And if your making the effort from up there again, and doing prizes, your pint n pizza is on me mate,

Well, the first one is anyway!

seeing as we are now into october, and haven't yet confirmed exactly which thursday evening we are going to meet up yet.....can i suggest the 23rd if nobody has any serious objections?

suits john with his travels as he won't be around the week after, and may allow me to blag a ride out with him in his 164 Q4 although with it being a LHD car i do get the jitters being a passenger in it



so, the 23rd ok everyone?



school half term is the week after too, if that helps

23rd is fine by me/us ..

23rd it is!

That's me out as half term week is fully booked at work so can't get night off

half term is the week after around here chris.....different for the schools around you?

Yep the kids went back last week of august but on the plus side their finish a week earlier for summer so can get cheaper holiday that week in the summer

Hi, I'm in for 23rd............. can we still see the trains in the dark?!!?

anymore?

Boll*cks, - forgot I'd offered prizes again, will have to think of something ! see you tomorrow then !
John.

You can have my little autumn giveaway john, on effort and distance alone you deserve something for your efforts.

Pint n pizza probably better for you though eh mate

I suppose being the second closest, it would look bad if I didn't make it!

I'll have to dig the Alfa out and turn it out for the outing

Well we are here . A little early ..

Just home now ..

Surprising it didnt take very long this time .. suppose it makes a difference when you know the short cut / right way to go..

Had a great night .. was good to see everyone again ..

ditto,

great night again, and thank you everyone for making the effort distance wise,

i know its not on everyones doorstep!



as said before, the pubs landlord and owner, James, is always more than happy for as many or as few folk as interested, so we can do these little gatherings as many times as we want.

Might i even make a suggestion that we sample some more of the chef's menu for a little gathering prior to Christmas?

Little Adam in the kitchen can certainly deliver some good honest Pub Grub, but i'm open to all ideas folks?


thanks again, and good to see you in better health Joe

Thanks Shrew .. its good to be in better health ...

Regarding the meet prior to Xmas .. Chris and Julian thought the same .. but to make it a family event which i think would be a great idea . The Great Northern Inn seems to be a good location. So why dont you speak with the landlord and see what prices and a menu for the evening would be, basically see if you can get a bit of discount. I'm northern .. i dont pay full price for anything!
