The best burger of any pub thus far so yes I'll be there.

I'll be there seeing as it looks like the taffia lot are going for a ride rather than just meeting for a drink. I might even be on stinky II :riding:

Why don't you guys check out the George Abbott or the Keystone?... Variety is the spice of life and all that...

The White House in the Summer is gorgeous too... Sitting out by the canal with a Pimms... There's nothing better :D

George Abbott? We passed that on the way to the Britannia on the Guildford Idle Banter Drinking (or not!!) night. DD said it used to be a gay pub so we didn't go in.

Hmmm How could I forget the Weyside! Nice place!

If you're feeling desperate you could always try the Wooden Bridge pub, plenty of parking there! (Becareful of the brothel down the road disguised as a hairdressers though! :lol:)

Cheers dude! Was into them big time back in the "Make yourself" days! I was listening to them on the iPod a few days back, and I had forgotten how much I loved that album (was my desert island disc!), and Morning View too. I couldn't get into Crow left to the murder TBH, that killed the love for me :(. I haven't even been bothered to check out light grenades.[-(

OMG, Someone always tells me to look at something to my right when we walk by and when I look it's her, she's staring back and I quickly look away. She creeps me out.

Thanks guys for the offers to guide me. However, I have been keeping an eye on the weather forecast and it looks decidedly inclement. Therefore I will probably be spending the evening at home, in Vauxhall, drying my socks.

Boohoo.

Come rain, snow, frogs or bananas I will be there tonight. Will be on the Hornet though as it's likely to still be chucking it down. Will probably come straight from the gym so I might have trouble walking.....am doing legs again tonight. Took me over a week to recover last time.:(

Was a nice meet despite the cack weather and lack of a burger! :(

Enjoyed my ride home and got into a bit of a race with a 3 series beemer. Was quite good fun sliding all over the place in the wet, if I'd had my sliders on I bet I could have got my knee down.....and my elbows, head, ears..........:rolleyes:

For the next meet I want everyone to have a Z1000. :cool:

have you taken a pillion on your zed yet?

DanAbnormal

Yes I took my little brother. Actually he is much taller than me and we pretty much wheelied away from every set of lights. The most suprising thing of the Zed is that you can be doing about 70 and then roll on the throttle and the front can come up at 90.................interesting.........:thumleft:

Just go steady with the right hand when someone's on the back and you'll be fine.

i'm not planning on taking any pillions, ever.

i just wondered because i found the pillion seat VERY slippery and had to fit one of those magic non-slip seat thingys before we could go anywhere with me on the back.
