Norfolk is the host for this years Big ER Weekender!
Starting with a fabulous run from the Thetford area around the county from our resident “Run-Meister” Steve Hider, we will move on to a brand new venue at the Angel PH at Larling near Snetterton. Come along for the the drive, stay for a BBQ (bring your own food) or go the whole hog and camp as well.
There are full Camping Facilities there with Shower Toilets etc, all for only £10 for a 2 person pitch!
Camping here has one or two distinct advantages, Restaurant for those who like refinement (early booking required), permission to BBQ on site for those who to rough it, and Beer on tap!
The meet will be Sainsbury’s Thetford at 9:30 am for the run through Norfolk
We will arrive mid-late afternoon at the Angel to get settled for an evening of fun and frolics, and did I mention beer?
The following morning we intend to have a short run through to Goody’s farm shop on the A140 for breakfast, Yum Yum
Anyway we need to give the angel an idea of numbers, so please indicate if you would like to come long, camping or not
Count Emma, Thomas, William and myself in for that one - drive and camp - and food - and beer (me only for the dirty beer probably!)
The Angel is a great real ale pub (my usual Snetterton track day finale!).
St Georges English Whisky distillery is just down the road and if you are contemplating a BBQ then also pile on down to FL Edge Butchers in East Harling!
Run details and approx timings would be great please Steve - Emma has to split off at some point to take Wills to a birthday party but should be able to easily as I think you are meandering somewhere around the Wortwell, Homersfield & Alburg viscinity?!
I also have an MX5 in my friendly Wortwell garage having a new front wing and door and entire side refettled and painted so I may well stop off to see if that is finished too!
What time are you aiming to arrive at the campsite/pub?
Just one small problem at first glance Steve - as Emma dutifully pointed out, the road from the Pulhams to Harleston is closed just before the bridge at Starston!
I have a nice quiet single track road diversion from Pulham St Mary to the Redenhall roundabout if you are interested??
Regards, Ian
PS - complete tangent but Martin - we need an iPhone app for the forum or at least a way to be able to post as it simply doesn't work (use of flash?)
I think there is some sort of work around for that, and its also a very hot topic at the moment; future forum development. There is info on here or drop pm to Ramsay, 01mx5, he will tell you how to do it…
