Poseidon Posted May 26, 2005 Report Posted May 26, 2005 We'll be at the pub just off the A303 towards Wallop. It's called the Poplar Farm Inn and a good place for Pre-wallop drinks Quote

Poseidon Posted May 26, 2005 Report Posted May 26, 2005 Arse. Absolutly typical.... Middle Wallop fast approaching and the bloody pub burnt down http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/41186000/jpg/_41186229_poplarfarmfire203.jpg http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/hampshire/4581739.stm I'll have a look for a back up location...

Poseidon Posted May 26, 2005 Report Posted May 26, 2005 OK, I have just spoken to the White Hart pub, they will be open, haven't burnt down, and have parking. I'll hope to be there from 17:30 tomorrow. Hopefully meet a few others there! Here's a link to the map It's at Over Wallop (just past Middle Wallop airfield) Quote
craig.w1599968638 Posted May 26, 2005 Report Posted May 26, 2005 I will see you in the pub then........should be a few of us lot arriving at about 5pm ish !! :) Quote
flydad Posted May 26, 2005 Report Posted May 26, 2005 Just make sure they don't close the gates earlier than 11PM, even then it might be a struggle depending on the traffic. Do you southerners have the Friday off as well, or will it just be the normal Friday night rush hour (read 4 hours) senario? Quote
