South Brum Meet 4th of July
omega0684 - 29/6/11 at 08:49 AM

Hi All,

Doesn't time fly! its meet time again, The next South Brum meet will be on the 4th of July.

We discussed a couple of meets ago that we would possible try a new location a little further "North" as some of the attendees felt that Redditch was a little far "south". Now I know I can't please everyone but i've had a chat with one of the lads at work who used to live in Solihull and he had recommended a pub just off Junction 5 of the M42 in Catherine-de-Barns called "The Boat Inn"

The Boat Inn Website Link Here---Map Link Here

There is a large car park at the rear and reviews have said that food and staff are good too. We also have the chance to go out for a blat is we can get enough cars together for tin top owners to ride shotgun. Weather reports certainly look promising if the weekend forecast is anything to go by and the roads locally are very bendy!

Alternatively, we can resort to the usual watering hole, The Old Washford Mill, Redditch.

Shall we say that the Poll answers will be reviews on Sunday morning and a decision made on where we are going to meet!

Any other suggestions are welcome!

All the best

Alex

Steve, are you coming to this one, your car must have half inch of dust on it by now!

Yeh. I may well do, sounds like a nice place to me. Dust is not allowed on my car it has nice white sheets on it to keep it cosy.

Just to confirm guys we'll definately be meeting at the Boat Inn. I went there today to check it out, it have a huge car park and a relatively large garden at the back. as you come into the village (from the M42) its on the right just before the hump back bridge.

see you all later!

Thanks for the warm welcome and hospitality last night. It was good to meet up, but we need more cars at the next meet!
Glad to here that you made it back home without any hiccups, Omega, sorry but I don't think you left helmet bag behind, it must have flown out of your car as you took off from the pub!!!
