View Full Version : Another Derby Meet
DaveD 10 August 2002, 21:21 Following last night's 'discussions' ;) we kinda decided that we ought to have another 'local' meet.
In an effort to attract some more of the Nottingham contingent, we thought of moving to more neutral ground in the Shardlow area (South of Derby, just off the A50).
We did a quick reccee today, and have found two suitable venues.....
1) The Clock Warehouse, in Shardlow. Nice place, next to the canal.
2) The Plank and Leggit. Next to the Sawley Bridge Marina, but not on the canal.
Both places are 3 mins from the A50 (in opposite directions). We reckon the best date will be a week next Thursday (22nd August), normal time of say, 7:30 to 8pm?
There you go.....Which venue? (Bestest Big Brother accent) You decide.
Dave & Rachael.
markr1963 11 August 2002, 00:00 I'm in :D

Good to meet you both last night
Mark
ChrisB 11 August 2002, 14:40 Sounds good to me, either venue is :cool:
If we went to Mansfield, it wouldn't be a Derby meet would it? :rolleyes: :p ;)
chrisp 11 August 2002, 16:34 The one by the marina is a great little pub and easy to find. Either is easy from the A50 though, you do realise these are old scoob venues as well, I dont we were banned either ;).
DaveD 11 August 2002, 17:37 Chris,
we parked up in one pub for around an hour with no complaints, and neither has a 'No Scoobys' sign on the entrance - so hopefully we'll be ok ;).
Both venues are only 5 mins from Jcn 24/24a on the M1, so should be easy enough for the Mansfield posse to find.

555-Shaggy 11 August 2002, 20:36 Yep, I'm in.. Either pub is good for me.. I mean lets face it... its a pub..
scooby-si 11 August 2002, 20:36 We can find anything anywhere http://www.stopstart.fsnet.co.uk/Gif/bart-moon.gifLOL

CharlieWhiskey 11 August 2002, 22:23 OK I'll call it seeing as no-one else want's to.
The Clock is a bit dull and lifeless (used to be one of my fave pubs when it first opened but it has gone downhill)
The Plank & Leggit is OK, easy to find so even chrisp won't get lost!;):D
Watch out for the midge bites in the car park though!
TonyG 12 August 2002, 08:30 May well be able to make this - assuming work doesn't get in the way.
Lozza 12 August 2002, 12:05 Yup count me in too :D
scooby-si 12 August 2002, 22:01 i,ll be there,can u give me some destructions please :D
THANKS

CharlieWhiskey 12 August 2002, 23:33 M1 Jct 24A A50 towards Derby 1st exit.
Or A50 - Castle Donnington turn coming the other way.
Take Long Eaton turn & you will find the pub about a mile from this roundabout on right just after passing under M1.

So all we need now is a date before the end of August? (midweek prefered)
