Midlands Christmas Meal!

Saturday 6th December - 1pm

 

Food & Drink

The Farm restaurant, Solihull - Just off the M42 between Junctions 4 and 5 so it's nice & central for all Midlands people (and anyone else who fancies it!)

postcode is B90 4EH - map

 

Accommodation

Burna found this:

Corus, Solihull, £51/room

(It's 1.3 miles from the restaurant, so a short stagger or an even shorter taxi ride.)

postcode is B90 4EB - map

 

The restaurant doesn't require deposits, but I don't want to say there are 30 of us going then only see 20 turn up as they are reserving tables for us and wouldn't take kindly to being mucked about. So please only post up if you are DEFINITELY going. Thanks. :)

 

 

We'll sit down to eat at 1pm, and those of us that are in it for a session, will stay 'till we're no longer welcome. ;)

2. AlexM (Likes the colour Pink and drives an N/A, but goes much faster than me in my BPU in corners where his ground clearance is much higher so can easily go over the high curbs, however on the straights is dreadfully slow and gets his ass beat every time)

 

Nothing like being honest. :D

 

i couldnt agree more :p

Not sure if booking a room yet, but 53.5 mi – about 1 hour 2 mins might persuade me.

There are 2 Premier travel lodges in Shirley, 1 near the Corus hotel by the Plough Pub on the Stratford rd and 1 a couple of miles further into Shirley also on the Stratford rd next to the Saracens Head Pub.

 

Also theres quite a few speed cameras in that area, several on the Stratford rd to and from the M42 and on Monkspath Hall rd so be carefull, Stratford rd dual carrigeway is a 40 limit and Monkspath Hall Rd is a 30.

 

Also watch out for the police jumping out from bus shelters with there speed guns, almost got caught a few days ago half a mile from the Corus Hotel !

Good info there Dunk. :thumbs:

 

Burna, why not come for the food, then one of you nip out afterwards and check into the hotel, quick taxi ride back (or lift from a non-drinking member) and jobs a good 'un! :)

 

 

Doh, forgot to ask about set menu - I shall aim to do that tonight Linda. :)

Cheers Dunk :) I originally tried the Premier's but they wanted nearly £70 :blink:

 

No problem, just thought seeing as i live 5 mins away i'd throw in my 2p

 

Ive just looked and it says £52 for a weekend night so might be worth a call.
