I won't be making it unfortunately, but I will nudge Mr Graham and see if he wants to show his face.

Count me in I'll get the train from Preston, it's only a 10 min walk from Picadilly.

[Garacesh]

20th works great for me Count me in!

[limawhiskey]

Right OK. 20th May. 2pm Manchester, outside Almost Famous?

Should be quiet enough at that time to not book. Who's in?

 

Argh, had cleared this for the 13th with the Missus. Can't do the 20th now I'm afraid

 

Enjoy the food and I'll hope to meet you guys on the next one.

Sorry @limawhiskey ! There will be plenty more might even organise one that isn't just eating... although everyone loves to eat! Hahah!

[mikeprice]

Checked with OH and I have a pass out so I'll be there!!

[Joanne]

Just bumping this up again. So far I have 7 attendees. Any more for any more?

[Bedders]

Is that the best excuse you can come up with?!

[Joanne]

pah hahahah!

 

So I think I count 6 people? I'll book a table.

[Garacesh]

So to confirm: It's this Saturday, 2PM, at Almost Famous in Manchester's Northern Quarter?

[Joanne]

Yes! I'll get a table booked.

[Dos_Box]

I'm glad someone confirmed the time. I had it down for midday!!

[Joanne]

Table is booked for 2. Can't wait for the bacon fries!

[Dos_Box]

I made the 'mistake' of ordering the bacon onion rings last time I was in Solita's in Preston.

It was a bowl full of large battered union rings with a whole slice of bacon wrapped around each!!

I couldn't eat them all

[mikeprice]

2 questions

 

1 - are we meeting outside or inside

2 - is the place marked - I tried to look for it on Streetview but couldn't find it - and I found something that said it is up an unmarked staircase??

 

Mike

[Joanne]

Outside. Yes it's up some stairs. It's mysteriously hidden!

[mikeprice]

Oh good - last time I went into an unmarked bar it was in Jerusalem

 

and it turned out to be a brothel

 

(we were young and just thought they had an awful lot if good looking young waitresses compared with the number of tables)

 

Honest

[Dos_Box]

Just discovered my gore tex needs reproofing, on my way...

[Dos_Box]

Train is rammed!!

[Joanne]

Table is booked under my name, just go in!

[mikeprice]

Table is booked under my name, just go in!

 

or possibly not!!!

 

 

Anyway - just got home (before grandkids arrive) - had a great time

 

thanks to all

[Dos_Box]

Thanks @Joanne for sorting this out. I'm still full now!!

[Garacesh]

Aye, t'was good! I'll definitely have to keep that place in mind for future adventures.
