Another Essex / Suffolk meet (at long last)?

Hi Folks

Now my car is about to get back on the road tomorrow and the gearbox appears to be working this time around (long story), I just wondered if anyone is up for a meet. Last time I "arranged" this, we met at the Thatchers Arms in Mount Bures (http://www.thatchersarms.co.uk) > the last one was quite some time ago though.

I can't make Sundays until my sons football team has played their last game (not sure when that is), and I can't make Saturdays when Col U are playing at home either (no comments please)!

So I propose Thatchers Arms, Friday 15th April 6.30 pm onwards...

Anyone interested or do you have other suggestions of when and where?

Is this still happening on Saturday?

The weather forecasts are a little iffy (possible showers) but I don't trust them anyway!

Well I'm still available but I'd like to suggest 1pm so that my son can come along with me and so long as the weather is dry (ish).

So who else would be able to make it then & there??

I *should* be ok for that time... weather permitting.

It's been dismal today, but hasn't actually rained. Forecast is "a few light showers" but that doesn't say when in the day... probably won't happen anyway!

So - who was it in a black and silver 7 going up the hill to the pub as I was going down away from it (at about 1:45pm) in a yellow and silver one?

That was Stu - he arrived just after you left. So that makes a grand total of 5 of us who turned up today if you include passengers ....... well, I've seen quieter days but it was a good excuse for a pint and a sarnie anyway so we enjoyed it - and it didn't rain on us either so not too bad all things considered

It chucked it down in Cambridge for a while with hailstones thrown in for good measure so I gave it a miss . Was out in the car with SWMBO at the time , She was not impressed

I do like the Thatcher's, indeed I'm often in there, but Saturdays are difficult. Friday evening is good like we used to.
