Yes I know I'm an northerner but I'm down in the area that weekend and wondered if any of you midland peeps fancy a pub lunch \ run out someplace?

So, any local's fancy choosing a venue?

Darn, I'll be in Cornwall!

Would be nice to see you down south Ian if your that close. 8)

I could be up for that (despite also being a "northerner") - seem to

pretty much live on the M6 anyway these days! :roll:

Depends on if I have plans that I've forgotten about or if plans get made

quick (found a "For Sale" sign outside the house I'm renting when I got

home :shock: ), but it would be a good day out I'm sure!

Don't know any venues round that way though - I'd recommend steering

clear of the Coventry ring road though :lol:

Good stuff, Kevin (westy) is local and has said he will have a think about somewhere decent for food. I think Colin will come down for this also (if the missus lets him )

btt - Westy have you anywhere in mind?

I've been thinking long and hard about this.

There is a nice pub called the 'The Bell' in Belbroughton. Just off Jct4 M5. It does great food and is set in the middle of loads of country lanes.

If you like I'll bring my AP-22 performance meter. We should be able to find a decent enough straight bit of road. If someone could bring a laptop with a serial port on it, we can then download the data for each of the tested cars.

Directions are :-

Southbound

M5 Jct 4 (Bromsgrove)

Take the 4th exit sign posted for Kidderminster/Stourbridge

2nd exit off the next island sign posted Kidderminster/Stourbridge

The pub is on the oposite side of the dual carriageway about a mile down the road.

I'll bring my laptop... 8)

would like to - but have a RR day at southam

Mark

btt, so far it's me, colin, westy and Rob, any more takers?

Bah, I knew I'd forgotten something - haven't spoken to the missus

about it yet so I don't know if I'm "to be confirmed" still.

Might just offer to take her out to the pub tomorrow for lunch and not

tell her which one :lol:
