Cool

If you are taking that many have a word with the venue and you might get a reserved area if you are eating.

Pubs are normally very cooperative especially if you are going to order 20'odd meals Remeber they may have to get in extra staff if you are going when it is not normally busy.

Walton Inn is better than the Darlaston IMHO

I'm organising the UK Twin Turbo Legacy meet in Staffs in March next year, and I need a location. Thinking about either Darlaston Inn or Isaac Newton both on the A34. Or can you help with a better place? North or South Staffs and near to the M6 so those travelling form the North or South can have easy access.
Many Thanks Tim

How many are you expecting Tim?

There are plenty of venues about, I'm sure ChrisB/chrisp/Little MissWRX can recomend one that fits the bill. I would myself but i cant remember what they are all called

What sort of 'meet' is it? Stand around in the car park looking under each others bonnets? Social? Meal?

There is a new pub called The Shire Horse which is just off J14 (Staford North) I haven't yet checked that one out, so awaight the report.

The Daralaston is a good venue, The Walton Inn - towards Stone on the A34, just down from the Darlaston. The Three Crowns where the Staffs treasure hunt was held.

Mail me and I can give you better location details if you want.

Michelle.

Thanks for the help, Michelle did you contact the people running the pubs or just turn up? I think their will be some travelling a long way so organising food may help. At the moment there are around 20 names on the list. I know both pubs on the A34 have enough room and I went to the first meet at the Darlaston.

Michelle,
Can you e-mail me the details of location and contacts for Three Crowns please, & thanks for the help.
Jonto saw you today by Northwood Stadium, but didn't get chance to wave.
All welcome to come if you fancy looking at some Twin Turbo Legacy's + Forester S Turbo + singlr turbo Legacy (probably end up as the whole Subaru range - now that would be cool!!)
