AONW July meet

Ladies, gents, HM.....

Whaddaya reckon it's time we had another meet?

Following on from the last one I reckon we go for the Blundell Arms in Horwich again as we had a great turnout there last time and the driving roads round there ROCK Good food as well, and cracking views over Lancashire & Manchester

So Wednesday 9th July it is, I reckon if we all try and get there for 7pm as it was v busy and the food order took a fair while last time. I'll book a table for 7.30

So who's up for this one then? Met a few new NW faces in the last couple of weeks (you know who you are!) let's hope we can have a bumper turnout again

You never know, I might bring some proper Lancashire growlers....

Re: AONW July meet

Looking forward to it. Great company and good food guaranteed and not too far away - well done Al!

And I don't care if my daily isn't an Alfa (yet)- I'm not being bored at the back of the line again this time! Make way for the Mazda - "coming through"!

Know exactly what you going through matey - in the process of it all myself - just swap cats for dogs, and I get to keep the house mortgaged to the hilt... whilst she swans off with the cash, cats and 12 years of my life - cos she feels like it... bitter - me ... yeah I'll have a barrel of flat cap!...

Blundell ain't that bad... I wil hold me hands up and say I put a couple of options together for last months meet - then promptly dissapeared to sweden.

May have a few more candiate pubs for alternate meets but a little more remote...
