Default Berks P/Ford meet @ The Bull ph nr Reading on 30th March

For those of you that dont know where it is The Bull public house in Aborfield on 30th March @ 7.30pm onwards. The post code is RG2 9QD so you can look it up on multimap for directions. Its on the main road (A327) just on the outskirts of Reading in Aborfield.

We'll be doing another newsletter along with an award for the best car of the night and they'll be plenty of humour and wit flying around as usual.

See you there

If you'd like to suggest something that we haven't thought of so far for either the monthly meets or a social day/weekend/night then feel free to PM me any suggestions

Yey

Don't stand at the back, nobody's going to bite you, except your hand for a drink maybe

The scariest looking is paddy for sure, but he's the gentlest too

errr... no it just happens to be half term and the only time we could go....

Also, I believe there is a pissup planned for the 9th April in Reading. We won't be able to make that one either....

Oh well.... there is always the warmer months.....

Resize it to about 550 X 100 that should do the trick...
