Default Halfway House Improvements

Well guys after yesterdays visit I think the pub is under new management and it shows

Better and more Bar staff THEY SMILED

Food was good with a new menu together with the old favourites

Conservatory is being rebuilt [Thanks to a plumbers Van driving through it]

Up to you guys but I think we should try a full attendance in September and see if we need to move

Lets hope it wasn't a one night thing.

I actually like the HWH as I think most people do, problem in my mind was a few of the bar staff p*ssed a lot of people off making them wait whilst the chatted!

Didn't have to wait at all last night (Which was nice).

I quite like the H/H, as mentioned to Phil last night, this was the first event I went to when I got my scoob, back then there weren't many scoobs about and I felt a bit of a plum as I didn't know anyone, but Phil came over, introduced himself and Pete Croney, and the rest is history!

I know there's a lot of bad press about Pete and the original ScoobySport, but he checked my car over thoroughly (for free!!) and gave it the thumbs up

Must admit this has always been my favourite Meet. Shame Karate is on the same night but I will try to get there for the early part of the evening assuming work doesnt throw a spanner in the works
