South East Portending Portsdown Pootle (19th May)

[LeStempy]

19th May seems like a good date for the next Portsdown public parade, being as it is positioned perfectly between the Haynes and Castle Combe meetings.

Participants place your patronymic here.

I'll have a P please Bob.

Sounds good to me

Add the date in the post title too, I know it messes with the whole ‘P’ thing but...oh bugger, now I need to go for a pee

ooh one day before my birthday does this mean someone else to bring cake (it will be lemon drizzle)

I've never cooked a cake before but happy to give it a go, or you can have one from M&S one which will probably be safer to eat

You need bowls to make cakes, it’s already too complicated for me

Not long now... same time as last time... was it 10.30?

Although I'll be there a little earlier this time, as I want to take in some of the views

 

[robert edwards]

if your taking the views cross the road next to the pub and look north

 

[robert edwards]

another one is fort nelson about two miles west its free and will take about three hours to go round

 

[LeStempy]

Last time I went to The Royal Armouries they had started to charge for parking.

 

[robert edwards]

ok thought that was when the poppy wave was there

 

[LeStempy]

You could be right, might have to check it out.

 

[Claptrap]

Are there any other good places that cater for large group meets up in the area within 30mins from you guys either way?

 

[LeStempy]

There are quite a few places that are either big car parks or museums that welcome clubs to visit. Depends on whether you just want a place to hang, or if you want to include a venue like the Haynes meet and also if you are prepared to pay for parking.

https://www.portsolent.com/ is free to park and often has car meets.
