Default Every Sunday South Devon

We are going to try breakfast meets every sunday down here - all welcome - no need to book.

The initial one is at the Haldon Grill on the A380 heading from Exeter to Newton Abbot. It is as you get to the top of the hill and is opposite the Texaco garage (it is a dual carriageway. It will be this sunday 10th January at 10am (weather permitting). Those who want can then go for a drive out or just sit and drink tea/coffee and eat monster fry-ups. The idea is to get to meet each other and start a regular social event with no pressure on anyone.

It is hopefully going to be one of those get togethers which will sometimes have one car and others 20! If it gets off the ground it would be good to alternate between the Exeter and Plymouth areas. At the moment the grill is used by my motorbike club (from whom I knicked the idea) so we could do with finding our own place probably, though it would be nice for me to stay in contact with both.

Please feel free to PM me for a contact telephone number.

Cancelling this for the 10th due to weather forecast. Haldon is not the place to be when it snows! Will try again on the 17th.

Is that the old Little Chef? That is a right pain in the **** sliproad! Breakfast good though? Keep persevering mate, once the good weather comes they will be there in their droves. If Im down at Plymouth ever Id be up for it, I go down every few months.

Don't think it is the old Little Chef. This place is at the top of Telegraph Hill on the A380 where the bridge crosses over to the Texaco garage, but yes it does have a bad sliproad as it is on the crest of the hill.

Anyone can turn up if they want. I will not be there next Sunday as I am in Truro.
