BCF Meetup
      #1897280 - 17/06/2008 08:28

On the thread below we suggested a forum meet up at the 'Plough & Harrow' in the Vale. (between Bridgend & Llantwit) if anyone is interested. Not sure on dates but the live music is great on saturday nights.
Best to try and arrange a night with good weather and i think there is a camp site next door.
Edit....Actually the pub might be better in the winter, how about a meeting place where we can sail to that is central?
Flatholm??

Is there anything at Flatholm or would this be a rafted meeting? Either way it sounds good and not too far even from Watchet!!!

Only downfall is the lack of pub.... how about a bar on the beach. BBQs are banned so??

What about Watchet?
Or Bristol? I'm sure our club house "Sabrina" would accomodate us.
Or Cardiff? Better facilities.
Me? I like Watchet, maybe that club on the Quay?

Let's not let the (good) idea of a full forum meet somewhere central distract us from the opportunity for a pint in the Plough and Harrow for those who live close enough. I haven't been to the P&H for years (was it there that they had bar stools in the shape of horses saddles? Bl**dy uncomfortable) but it's only a 20 minute drive away. I wouldn't rule out one of the Cowbridge pubs either if that would work, probably the same sort of distance for me and Lizzy and closer to Rhoose.

The P&H is a smashing pub. I had my first Old Rosie there - which is a cider, not an intimate experience!! Powerful stuff it was too. It went straight to my legs and disolved all my bone marrow.

Count me and Bev in. I may pin my burgee to the car aeriel. I haven't had chance to use it yet.

Take care all,


Lizzy D

ok.... lets set a date.. i guess when there is some good live music?
What are preferances...we are pretty booked up but could change things about. only 20 min drive for us (SWMBO) driving home
Edit...
If anyone interested pm's me i will try and arrange a date with the most folk attending. In fact just e-mail me.
