Unless we want to do both which may get a bit expensive at this time of year.

Thoughts?

Stripey, what are the free from options like at that pub at Elveden? If we're doing a run we might as well go a little further. That was a nice pub!

Edit: The one we stopped at on the way back Stu? That's the one I was thinking of!

Reasonably wide run-off areas at Snetterton. As long as you don't get a tank slapper and spear into the Armco on the inside.

Does this mean that the normal monthly meet won't be happening?

Indeed.

However, if we do, I'll be getting on with it straight away rather than twiddling my thumbs for 10 minutes parked in a queue!

Just wondering as expenditure at the normal monthly meet is up to each individual whereas a group Xmas meal (2 course 16.99/3 course £19.99) isn't a realistic opt-out option.

I'm happy to do whatever, the Xmas/New Year run sounds good, but will depend on the date... I'm busy Christmas Day :bleh:

But yeah, up for it...

Run sounds like a good idea; like Bezly, it all depends on when. I think I know the Elvedon pub, is it the one near the entrance to Center Parcs?
