PLEASE READ TO THE END OF THIS POST AS THERE IS A CHANGE TO THE MEAL PLANS AT THE END OF THE DAY BECAUSE OF THE DODGY WEATHER FORECAST. Instead of a bbq we will go to the Noodle Bar where you can get a meal for around a fiver
if you can let me know if you are coming I will add you to the list of peeps attending:
BenF + 1 (Ben & Carol) + bbq
scofield.1 +1 (James & Gary) + bbq
PumaBabe + 3 (Yvonne, Pete + Anthony & Brendan) + bbq

the plan is that after the afternoon drive Gary (scofield.1) will host a barbecue for which you will have to make a £5 contribution, and any profits (if any!) will go to Macmillan cancer support. Food and soft drinks/tea/coffee will be provided but you will have to bring your own alcoholic beverages; please also let me know if you plan to come to the barbecue. Please also let me know if you have any special dietary requirements and we will try to accommodate them
I have no idea of the route yet, but I will add information about it nearer the time, as well as anything else you might need to know, to this first post on the thread; anything else you need, please ask!

route to the Noodle Bar:
• turn right out of the Bull's Head car park and at the T-junction at the end of the road turn right to Woodhouse
• follow this road and at the mini roundabout take the first exit (straight on); go past Beaumanor Hall and the Manor House pub/restaurant
• carry on to the traffic lights at the crossroads in Quorn; turn left and take the first exit at the first roundabout; at the next roundabout take the 3rd exit onto the dual carriageway (straight on)
• at the roundabout after hitting the 30 mph limit take the 2nd exit (straight on)
• at the next roundabout take the 2nd exit (straight on); at the following roundabout take the 3rd exit (turn right)
• after half a mile you reach a junction into a yellow box; take the right hand lane (of 2)
• enter the yellow box and take the right hand lane at the traffic lights ahead; at the traffic lights go straight on
• follow the road round slightly to the right and after another 100m turn right into the Beehive Lane car park – as long as it is after 6 pm when we go into the car park it will cost 50 p to park
• regroup at the car park to go to the Noodle Bar, 32 Bedford Street LE11 2DS (01509 269247)!
