Anyone fancy a seaside run if the weather's like it is today???

Southwold?
Orford?
Great Yarmouth if we're really keen!!!!!

Failing that - a big brekkie at The Ace???
Or tea and cake in Finchingfield???

Here's hoping this is the start of spring!!!

I'd agree if I was going. The Ace is a horrible ride from here. A12 all the way to the glorious North Circular. Hmm?! :thumbsdown:

With a name like lings they would have to do rice burners. However just down the road from sunny southwold Neil. Am trying to persuade the lovely Sarah to come on the back and if so we may be along. What's the plan? Any timings meeting points etc?

I'm thinking about midday then we can have lunch somewhere - there's a really nice pub that does cracking food in Orford which is a peach of a place - been there a few times and have always had a great sunday roast....??

I'll go now and fin dout what it's called and post more details!

I'm suggesting we meet at the Kings Head Inn in Orford - they have a car park and it's a sweet little place with the Maltings nearby for even more cake and general mooching.....What about 12.30??? I'll go look at the weather forecast and cross my fingers!!!

plus foosball is on, Carling Cup final.

What does this mean? I don't understand. What is this football people speak of? Is it some sort of game? Does it do anything? Does it taste nice? What is it?

I recognised the words Carling because I know that is beer - as for the rest of it - I think it was in a foreign tongue - and not in a good way!!!!!:dizzy:

Apparently it is a game of two halves?

Will you still be going if the weather is slightly pants?

22 grown men in short trousers kicking a bag of wind up and down some mud for ninety minutes, if it hasn't got wheels or wax underneath it ain't sport to me.

Did a couple of hundrd miles today, to DWR in Aylesbury, Henley on Thames, Oxford and so on - all in the showery rain and blowy wind but it gave me a bigger smile than I've had for a while - just hope that the weather holds for tomorrow's outing - and of course that the pub doesn't run out of fish and chips!!!! All being well see you all tomorrow,
