Yep.

we did this before a few times last year.

Maybe it will drum up some interest - the curry is great

Just about any night other than Thursday is good for me. Haven't been to a Midlands meet for a while. Maybe we can dig out Mr Walker and Jase?

Sounds like a great idea - if i'm not skiing (8-16th March), and I've still got a license(doubtful after 1st March) and my son Tom lets me out to play, then I'd love to join you!

Reckon we should make it Tandoori Nights in Shardlow - last time we went to Melbourne Arms the curries were no better than chicken in gravy

Plus Tandoori Nights do great Kormas so I'll be ok

This week is better for me, but don't make it too early in the evening as I'm working up in Wakefield at the mo.

I will see if boomer, WRX & Jon172 can make it, we spoke about it on Sunday.

Sorry guys, I'll have to give this one a miss if you decide on this Wednesday, as I've got a skiing session booked at Tamworth.

Hopefully I'll make the mext one though.....assuming its going to become a regular thing!

27th Feb is fine with me.

As long as I can get a Chicken Tikka Malayan, I'll be happy.

Which venue then? Decent parking?
