Meet Location

[Brett]

Right, there have been a few debates over where we hold the monthly meets over the years, up untill 2005 we held them at Taunton, Harvester which is just of the Motorway Junction not hard to find at all. Since 2005 they have been held in Exeter which suites those from Cornwall and so on.

Craig and I have had a chat and we are in favour of alternating between Exeter one month and Taunton the next. Not everyone can make each meet and to do this would keep the Bristol lads happier than they are at present.

We're looking for your thoughts on alternating it, Please dont just choose to leave it at Exeter because its closest for you - try to think of the reigon and other members who may want to attend but cant at the moment, a little giove and take I suppose!

Cheers!
Bett & Craig

Alternate is good

[chip]

I knew you too were a couple now, but I was unsure of who was the one taking.

Obviously all cleared up who is doing the women bit now though "Bett" lmao

[heavenly_d3vi1]

alternate sound the fairest on everyone!

LOL. That cracked me up!

Alternate seems fair. If the pre meet response is say all Devonshire peeps then maybe a meet could be scheduled for Exeter if it was meant to be for Taunton, & vica versa??

I'm happy to alternate & I'm familiar with the 2 pubs in exeter now... No big deal!

A location in Taunton will need to be discussed....

taunton is a lot closer to us but, i dont mind exeter as through the blackdown hills is quite a nice drive

[CraigGreen]

Blackbrook is just off the motorway. As is the Harvester & I'm sure we used to meet at the Master Thatcher years back IIRC which is a couple mins off the motorway.

blackbrook does a good carvery too

that place wins my votelmaolmao

Also the blackbrook is the easiest place possible to find, you really couldnt get simpler.

on the left 100 yards from the motorway junction up the A358 away form taunton towards london/yeovil.

[Brett]

I know exactly which pub that is already, dead easy.

Alternating is good IMO, perhaps even other places with a nice view (i.e chedder gorge, the moors etc) for pics etc!

Going to the same place each time does get boring, a change of scenery is good!

[chip]

wear something different each time, then we all get a change of scenery, short skirt one week, low cut top the next etc.

[adamSRi]

issue with the blackbrook tavern is that on sundays, the car park generally is chocker!

harvester food is crap tbh.

[chip]

yeah it would have to be at a different time to 1pm on a sunday if it was the blackbrook

[shane_o]

was chocker block in the cat and fiddle just before 2 yesterday

[Brett]

I might put a call into blackbrook and see what time they stop serving food then. Is 3pm too late for people? Should still be able to get home in time for Top Gearlmao

Advance notice of this would be appreciated. LOL

There are other pubs about too. Harvester is crap for food though. The place in Bathpool is good for food & easy to find.

I dont think thats quite the look for you to be honest!!


If the food is crap then lets not bother with the Harvester, was'nt that smitten on the food at the Barn Owl tbh(understatement, perhaps I should have walked out without paying after all)

ditto, my food at the barn owl was crap - almost airplane food tbh.

[LEE69]

Was always good there too.
Saw it had been taken over recently.

I like the food at the harverster, must just be down to personal preference.

[CraigGreen]

McDonalds??????
