The lotus owners club used to meet in The old venue, they all bought their posh wives with them and looked like they'd just stepped out of milllets

Sorry peeps, it's my old lads 75th and there is a rather large inheritance to consider

Post Wed Oct 09, 2013 9:14 pm

Post Thu Oct 10, 2013 9:13 pm

Popped to the venue tonight just to check everything is ok for next Thursday

Doh!

Good meet as per, even Pony made it!!

I've been thinking maybe try another venue at some point with a better (bigger) car park and a more central location?

Any suggestions?

Post Mon Oct 21, 2013 3:39 pm

I'm happy to try another venue, don't know where though.

Post Mon Oct 21, 2013 5:25 pm

This place is pretty good and has good access being near to the A3 and M25 etc

but car park is a similar size to the others

Post Mon Oct 21, 2013 5:35 pm

Anyone fancy a meet in Richmond (which is in Surrey) .... Has loads of great pubs plus river view

?

And easy access to M3, M25 and M4 ?

Richmond is not central Surrey, its London and its a pain in the arse for traffic!

I'm sure im not speaking for my self when i say this but when i got to a meet, part of that is the drive there and schlepping across London (something i do every week!) is not appealing.

Post Mon Oct 21, 2013 7:03 pm

Has anyone been here?

Its in a good location close to where the A3 crosses the M25 and apparently has a large car park.

Post Mon Oct 21, 2013 7:51 pm

Have you got a link Barry ?

Post Mon Oct 21, 2013 8:01 pm

Surrey needs a Crown Carvery , fill your boots for £4.19 FTW !

Post Mon Oct 21, 2013 8:03 pm

Is there not a Good Pub Guide on the Internet with ratings .... Cross reference this with a decent location ?

Not Surrey but I know a wicked pub in Bray
Proper top quality food better than the pub last week
Old fashioned pub
Low ceilings
Good car park
Fire place
Warms the cockles ....
Close to M4

Also they do a great bangers and mash wild boar sausages

I like it Barry but I did notice they don't do mixed Grill. Some of our more distinguished zoners might not be happy !!

It's sh1t Barry, been there a few times, it's local to Laura's dads place, food is awful.

How about the Hand and Spear in Weybridge.

Food is pretty good and whilst the pub car park isn't massive the train station car park is spitting distance away and it's huge, free after 6pm too and once all the suits have jumped in there X5's and Range Rovers it's pretty much empty.
