*** ESOC JUNE 2017: Pub Meet @ The Lodge ***
~As always, a big thank you to Rob for the flyer~
Following on from the surprise turnout from last month aided by the glorious weather, it’s time to look forward to our next meet.
ESOC Returns to The Lodge Country Inn! [again]
07:30pm Wednesday 28th June
The Lodge Country Inn
Burnham Rd,
Rettendon
SS11 7QT
This family run pub, hotel and restaurant is located on the A132 between Wickford and South Woodham Ferrers. Offering up a plethora of freshly prepared hot and cold meals including their Wednesday Evening speciality: Pie and Pasta. (other menu items will still be available)
* eating food is not a requirement btw, just an option
We will be parking on the large overflow gravel carpark situated behind the duck pond as opposed to the tarmac car park you will pass through on your way in.
It is advised to enter from the A132 side and leave via Woodham Road around the back whilst being mindful of the surrounding neighbours. Both roads lead to the same points so regardless of which direction you are coming from/heading too, you will be able to navigate your way back onto the main road. (Google Maps is your friend.)
Hopefully we will be able to enjoy a lovely evening in the early summer sunshine but if not, remember we can all retreat inside. Once I have an idea of numbers I will be able to reserve a table so please be sure to get those names down.*
Now the boring part. Please don't act in any form of stupidity i.e testing your exhaust loudness, donuts, burnouts etc. Anyone caught or been reported to acting in this manner will be dealt with in certain ways which can lead to being asked to leave the venue. SN accepts no responsibility for anyone's driving style.

*In addition, I would just like to kindly remind members to try and add their names to the list on this thread if you think you might be able to attend, even if it’s not set in stone.
Not only does this allow me to ensure we have enough potential seating reserved inside the venue should we need it, but it’s also a good indication for potential new members to see who is likely to be there.
For example: If an individual is considering making this their first meet and they find only 2-3 names on a list, they might be inclined to give it a miss. Then a dozen people show up!
Remember, even if you are not 100% you can make it, your name on the list still helps to give everyone else an idea of what to expect and could potentially encourage others.
….right, I think that’s enough dead horse flog-age for one day…as you were people.
