Pub below makes sense to me, as SWMBO & I would definitely drop our stuff off at the hotel first, then we'd have to grab a bite to eat perhaps in the pub - if you guys are not there any longer I'll give you a buzz

What about breakfast? for those that can't make the evening but don't mind an early start.

It's work in progress Mike as I said above but parking is becoming an issue.

Leave early anyway Mike and we'll 'guide' you in .

Stu is trying to find a decent stop for breakfast that will have enough parking for us all........not easy in Portsmouth!.

Here are the details -

Those staying over and those wishing to join us for a few sociable beverages on Friday the 19th we will be located at -

Travelodge Portsmouth Hotel

Kingston Crescent,

Garfield Road,

North End

Portsmouth

Meet up in the attached bar (Sovereigns Bigsteak Pub/Restaurant) at 8pm. Once there and depending on mood, finances and SWMBO's we may decide to hit the town. If you think you may arrive later and would like me to keep you posted on movements feel free to PM me a mobile number.

The breakfast meet will be at Sainsbury's Farlington which opens at 7am. I would suggest a meeting time of around 8am to give us time to force a few bits of pig down our necks before moving up to JKM for a 9am start.

Sainsbury's is located just off the main A27/M27 and pretty close to JKM. They have 651 parking spaces so I don't think that should be an issue

For those that might want a hearty slurp of V-Power prior to the festivities there is a Shell service station almost adjacent to Sainsbury's and is one of the most reasonably priced in the area.

Not been there myself either Stuart. The reason I added the leaflet is that it is in Gunwharf so if people head off down there it would make things cheaper.

Not sure if we'll want to go there - whats the general consensus?

Going to have to pull out from this and the RR as the insurance co want the hire car back and are now being a bunch of unmentionables :(

Sorry hear you won't be attending cheezemonkhai, does that mean I can nick your place on the RR? :P

Not on the list but plans are afoot to get you on but can't promise anything just yet.

I would have thought that given the nature of the proposed purchase that ought to put him on the list.

Not really worried, I just fancy having a plan & somewhere reosnable rather than the nearest pub we can find, not being local can any locals recomend any other options.

Note Tigers dress code is Smart Casual - no ripped jeans, no sportswear, no trainers

Re restaurants what others are close to the hotel, Im guessing some wont want to drive, we will have 3 spare seats going to wherever but cant guarantee we will be there at the end depending on what time it finishes to ferry people back.

What else is there in Gunwharf, I know theres a chineses eat as much as you can but havent tried anywhere else.

Im just thinking with potentially a large group we might need to book somewhere, I dont really fancy walking from place to place trying to find a table & ending up eating late. it might also pee off the ladies
