Club Arnage

Friday the 31st at The Plough in Wokingham, just off the A329M.

I have now locked the voting.


Since LM was almost 2 months ago and with LMES only just over a month away I think a de-briefing session is required. I would suggest a Friday night so the smoke's has time to get back from Aberdeen.

I was thinking about the following dates.

17th , 24th, or 31st, or how do people feel about Saturday night?

Wokingham again or Reading, or Bracknell (Doris)?

I have started a poll for the dates and place, please select one of each.

I can make any of these at the moment.

Wokingham on the 17th is looking favourite.

I guess that we will be using the usual meeting point. (Which I have forgotton the name of, just know where it is)

What date should I close the voting I was thinking of the 15th of August.

The two of you that have indicated that you would like to meet on the 24th can you not make the 17th?

This is the place

Dont know why,but I voted too.

Well Friday the 31st is storming away now!

well should be OK by me, as soon as it is set i will scribble it on the kitchen calender so Mrs Dave can't say i didn't warn her.

But the Plough is such a long way to go for me, it will involve me walking for a good 10 minutes!!  ;D

I hope Randy voted for this date or he may have to change his flight ;D

How kind of you to think of me  :)

Friday night is the night I travel back, usually arrive home a bit after 8 (air traffic control permitting). So all of them are equally bad for me, but I'll be there anyway...

Thats a big 10-4 good buddy ! ;D

Now thats the spirit ! ;D
Thats what I like to see.Someone who will go through all of that,just to have a 'piss-up' with his buds.
Now thats dedication.

I'll have a word with them for you Smokie  ;)

I appreciate the thought Rick but I'd rather chew of one of my hands than go out in Bracknell in the evening.

Dx

Great Doris is coming...... an evening of verbal and physical abuse!!!

you can take the girl out of bracknell.................

Lots of people away on hols in August, most back by the 31st, so would suggest then.

31st is good for me (although Wokingham on a Friday is a PITA)

Not been able to log on for a few weeks :(
Just noticed I'm half my former self, must check the scales to see if I'm now a nine stone weakling who gets sand kicked in their face ;D

Rob,  I can't work out whether you think this is a good thing or a bad thing.   :-\

Dx

PITA? ???

Sorry Bob, web speak  ::)

PITA = pain in the arse

Only Fridays? ;D

I'm laid back on this one, just fix the date, I will be there.
TTFN

I'll let you know on the Saturday after!!  ;D

LOL   :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Dx

Guys,

Are we definately on for the 31st at The Plough?  Ooh, and what time?

Dx

OK the 31st looks best. I will go straight from work so about 1730 for me. Does anyone know a cheap hotel nearby?

31st is good for me.I'll be there 8ish

I should be there 7 - 7.30.

Rick - this site may be of some use.  http://www.4hotels.co.uk/uk/bracknell.html 
There's a page for Wokingham as well but it didn't give as many options and it's more pricey.

Dx

there be a travel lodge just down t'road bracknell way just past the roundabout.

There is also a cheapo one in town near my office up on the terrace but looking at it i don't think i could recomend it to anyone, looks to be full of albanians and their ladies to me.......

Anybody know if the long lost lanyards will make an appearance???

Last I heard was that they were being picked up by Doris from Termie at Spa.  I asked Tom to leave mine (8) with Doris and I would collect at Silverstone.  Not heard anything since.

Del

I had them in my car until last week when I met up with Doris. Therefor Doris or Tom now have them. Very nice BTW.

Indeed they will they finally turned up in my hands last Friday.

I'll be sending them out by various means over the next few weeks.  I'm a bit snowed under at work and at Home right now.  Hence no post regarding them.

t.

Tom, will you be attending the Wokingham meet??
If so, I'll collect mine there

lanyards eh? Thats a blast from the past. Yeah if you are going to the naam i will be there so no need to post.

It is my intention to be there.


]t.

Can you let someone have my 8 lanyards please, Tom, for onward carriage to Silverstone.

Many thanks

Del

So, The Plough, Wokingham, Friday 31st August at 19:30 ish then (I'll be driving up from Goodwood so may be a bit on the drag).

Del, I can pick up your lanyards.

Correct! I would love to make it down to Goodwood for the day on either saturday or sunday but the cost of tickets is a bit steep!

Jeepers,

A little slow on the up take here.

Maybe able to make the 31st, I'll try my best.

Booked the Coppid Beach hotel, as was the same price as the travellodge but closer. The Hilton over the road was too much!

Bloddy hell Rick  that sounds like a bargain.   

t.

£65 with breaki in the morning!

Hmm cheaper than a Taxi me thinks.

Got a perfectly good lounge floor that you could have slept on mate - I only live 5 mins from the old house.

I think I will probably be there, but on the bike, so won't be drinking, and it will more than likely be a flying visit....will try and re-arrange my diary!

Right, I will be there in a while, off to the hotel then off to the pub for dinner and beer! See you all there!

Hope you are all having fun, more so than me as young vqdave jr is not happy tonight, mrs vq is up the stick so not full of beans so i am here while you lot are 5 minutes from where i sit getting pissed, great.

Always June to look forward to  ::)

Dave you weren't the only one not ot make it.  Smokie adn Robbo_28 went missing too.

t.

Rick, how did you get on with those 2 welsh girls rushing up the road to the Coppid Beach hotel disco - I think you may have been on a promise there   ;)

LOL! I was a bit surprised to see the sheep running up the road, I asume the drunkards following them probably let them out of a field near the plough!

Went back to the hotel and passed out. Woke up at 6.30 this morning and felt like I had been banging my head against a wall all week.

Ah well it was a good night! Not long until LMS then November!

Apologies for my no show on Friday!
Late call for corporate golf day, was worth going, I won longest drive!!
Catch you all for the pre 2008 meet!

Yeah, my apologies too. Apparently some plane had a crisis on the runway at Heathrow last Froday moring so it was closed for a bit. Put my flight back 2.5 hours. When we boarded, they had some unidentified luggage so another 25 mins sitting on tarmac in Aberdeen. Rather late getting in as a result... There's always next time!!
