Dear Moderators - please would it be possible to make this a sticky until 10th October?
You may recall some time ago that we floated the idea of an autumn "excursion" in the sunny North West - or even (putting all prejudices to one side) going into Wales! Well, the summary so far would appear to be that those interested include;
1. Terry
2. Darren
3. MrMickS
4. Ianed0
5. Mike of the MJHeathcote variety
6. Doohickey possibly
7. LeeH as he`s suggested the lunch venue!
8. Jkulin possibly
9. spkennyuk possibly
The Aunt Sally that I put together based on suggestions made was that we meet near the M6 (Fox and Hounds suggested), pick up others at convenient spots along the way, coffee somewhere, and trundle to Lee`s suggested hostelry in Llangollen for a pub lunch. The great thing about Llangollen is that there are lots of interesting places there - so possibly the motor museum (small but interesting, and they have a field that they would probably allow us to park on), or the steam railway, or Plas Newydd (not the Anglesey one), or a canal trip??????????????????? Meet up for afternoon tea afterwards, and then a scenic route back.
That really is only a shot in the dark, so feel free to pick holes, kick me gently in the nether regions, etc.
Cheers, folks
Terry
