The pub wasn't bad and the food was very nice. Waitress wasn't bad either, eh Adrian..........

Food was good. How did the burger compair to the shires ones? Fish was definately better. As for the waitress, she talked more than those at the shire and was generally more pleasant and wasnt unpleasant on the eye. I liked that pub cause it was more of a pub than a restaurant. Even I hit my head on on the beams. Sign of a proper old building. Wonder if knightrider would manage it?

I didn't so I think it's safe to say neither would Jon.

Its was a slightly better mixed grill I thought, and a slightly nicer barmaid. Not much between them really, didn't seem like it had tons of space if it gets busy later.

Yeah we got home fine. I didn't follow you when you overtook because I could see NOTHING! Unlit road that I didn't know, fog and rain on both sides of my visor, I had to slow to a crawl sadly. Anyway, we knew the way home so it was ok, apart from Phil kept dropping back cos of his faulty cylinder. Rubbish curveys hey!

It was a really fun actual meet in the pub, but on reflection if it says heavy rain all night, I might in the future decide against a large 140 mile round trip.

An extra special at Phil & Nick.

Hey hey hey thats at Phil, not me too! I just stopped at a roundabout like any normal person!

Cheers guys ... was good to meet you all ... decided to take an interesting route back to the A404 ... came out of Pub, and turned right, then took next left (down Lee Lane/Road I think it was called) ... not a road you want to be doing on a bike really ... thank god i was in the car! It's basically a single-track road with more than a few swimming pools on it (thanks to all that rain), and no street lighting ... almost as entertaining as meeting you lot!
