Keethos 842 Report post Posted June 3, 2014 Bumping this, what's the consensus people? Are we still up for this or has this deflated, dried up and died a horrible and slow death? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Keethos 842 Report post Posted June 4, 2014 Change of plans for me I'm afraid, I can't make this now Sorry......dropping like flies now.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
faith 237 Report post Posted June 5, 2014 Just reading though this thread again, it looks like only Lauren, Will, Alec and myself. I am still up for a nice drive out on Sunday, but I was going to probably drive up on Saturday afternoon. If we are still going ahead with this, can one of you guys up north give me an idea on location, as I would probably try and book in somewhere on Saturday night :-) Also, if we can confirm a time and place for Sunday, I can stick it on the other forum, and others may be interested? Thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GT86Jay 202 Report post Posted June 5, 2014 Can we have a post of exactly what the plan is? I'm lost? Admittedly I've not been following it that closely. I can work out it's a drive out to Wales? If it is wales, that's far to far for me to go for the day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Twigman 93 Report post Posted June 5, 2014 If it is wales, that's far to far for me to go for the day. My sentiment too.....Sorry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lauren 2259 Report post Posted June 6, 2014 Nothing has been agreed, thus I'd assume it not happening. Will, would you mind posting that map you had? It just looked like a really good route. Faith if you're up on Saturday night at Alec's we could all pop out for a meal? I've got a guest room if anyone else wants to stay over. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

faith 237 Report post Posted June 7, 2014 Sounds like a plan. Thanks Alec, that would be perfect. If I aim to leave about 2pm, I should be there for about 5-5.30ish, if that's ok. Lauren, I'm up for a bit to eat if you let me know where and when :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lauren 2259 Report post Posted June 7, 2014 Okay, well will have a think about food. The North West is famous for Curry but there are other restaurants of course. Actually thinking about it, fancy Wilmslow? It's a nice place to eat with lots of choice. I have had take out curry two nights running so a third might be pushing it! Hows about Italian? There is even a Japanese restaurant there if you fancy that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lauren 2259 Report post Posted June 7, 2014 Japanese restaurant: http://www.samsi.co.uk/wilmslow.htm Italian: http://www.strada.co.uk/italian-restaurant/wilmslow Not been in that one though, but should be fine. Also there is a Pizza Express. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

keelerad 256 Report post Posted June 7, 2014 Yep no problem Dave, we are meeting up with Lauren at Chester services, we didn't agree what time to meet there but looking at google maps this means we probably want to leave there at 10:40 latest, so if you want a full breakfast get there at 10:00, if you just want to grab a tea 10:30?
