A quick reminder of the monthly pub meeting for the West London area.
We didn’t seem to do much 2009 planning in January, and February was snowed off, so we’d better do some this month instead!
Our meetings take place on the first Monday of the month at The Dysart Arms (a bar/restaurant) which is situated on the A307 Petersham Road, between Richmond and Ham (right by the 20mph sign and new pelican crossing). We meet after work, so generally people start arriving from 7.30pm onwards.
The Dysart does a decent range of food, which although not cheap (£12+ for a main course) is usually of a good quality. Some people have a meal, while others just come along for a drink. Following our recent comments about the meal prices, the management have offered to ensure that there is at least one main meal option around the £10 mark on the nights we visit (as they did for the first time in December) and they also seem to be offering a fixed price menu e.g. 2 courses for £14.50 including tea or coffee. [Y]. So we’ll see how that goes for a couple of months and then reassess whether we stick with the Dysart or else look to move on elsewhere [*-)].
The car park is large (it carries on behind the pub), so not normally a problem parking. More details and map can be found at the West London website.
Sorry, guys. Had every intention of turning up, but I got stuck in Grenoble airport for 9 hours on Sunday, had a funeral on Monday lunchtime and the shock of a week’s work having piled up when I got in that afternoon. Coupled with having put a hole in the front of my '5 just before I went away (should be fixed by the end of the week though!) and I neither felt in the mood, or in any fit state to drive.
I have every intention of making it next month though!
Why don’t you come down to the Beaulieu photoshoot on April 5th, the day before our next WL meet - there’s going to be a few of us there, plus many many more MX5s. If the weather is good it will be a nice day out.
