ATTENTION

Couldn't read all of the thread.

IN MY OPINION- The best place to meet is at the MALT SHOVEL.

This Pub is EXTREMELY CLOSE to the NEC it has a Massive Massive carpark- it is gated and EVERY SINGLE car that goes in is video'd before the gate is lifted. The car park is also fully CCTV'd up to the eye balls.
I can go and take some piccies if anyone is arsed.

The location is at Stone Bridge Island which is underneath the A45 which goes to Coventry. JUST off Junction 6 of the M42, about 1 Mile in a straight line from the M6 Junction 4 and more or less at the bottom of the Toll road. Also it is on the A452 which is from Warwick to Brownhills and very close to the A446 which goes to Lichfield and the A38.

http://www.multimap.com/map/browse.c...x=517&down.y=8
(bottom right hand corner where the A452 meets the A45 its on that island.)

Bassttes pole is a crap place at the mo due to the police- I have a letter from Lichfield council explaining they will ASBO me if I go near there again on car meet.

the Elms isn't the greatest of pubs as its more of a resturant to be honest. ALSO the car park aint that big.

Sounds good mate,looks like we have a good group of people here....

We need to get the ball rolling a bit now......

Are people willing to go to the pub which Shings has just posted,if so then we need to sort a day every monthg as out meet !!

Do people prefer the week or weekends as i think weekdays will be better at say 6.30 on a wednesday night etc.....

I think the weekend will cause to much trouble for the show season

As bad as it sounds we can allways make it easy for everyone, we have to go with wher the majority of people come from, the location will be within 35-40 miles of this location anyway id imagine.

The only reason I said that place is due to the fact the car park is MASOOOVE and secure and its at the Junction of 2 main motorways and 2 main A roads.

do it near notts
I think that the issue here is we are looking at the WHOLE of the midlands which ranges from Herefordshire (W Mids) to Lincolnshire (E Mids)

So we must aim to please all if we want to include this area.

I have spoken to Beech And i think we should have all Pub propsals on the table
then these will be displayed

If everyone can pm Beech with the distances to each pub - using RAC route planner

he / I will post up a mitrix of these distances & a decision of where it should be held.

Dont want to find that a handful of people travel say ony 10 miles & others are faced with say 70 miles or it wont work

do we argee this plan ???
