I'm deffo interested.

I can't do the second weekend of Feb, 10th- 12th.
I'm not drinking until after aforementioned weekend but might entertain it and try a sober dooo ( Shocked ) if it's the first weekend of Feb.

I'll come if I can.






As long as fatman ain't there.

Just chuck a few extra layers on and get under the duvet, you don't need t'heating on.
Put your winter bike gear on?




Why don't we hold the FuP at yours then if it's that cold. Laughing

UXB rat doo at the White Horse, Tattingstone.

I'm not sure if June is being sarky, I wouldn't call it fancy- I preferred it when we were going there for the R&S.
It's now trying to be a bit posherer since the new landlord took over but the range of beers available was totally impressive (plus the roaring fire) and made up for the naff interior décor (and complete lack of attempt to hide the mess of wiring to the TV on the wall- imagine Nates wiring on his bikes and you get the picture).

did you not see the three course diners? and giant flouncy ice cream desserts I don't even know the name of?

COMPLETELY INCONPATIBLE WITH THE RATBIKE ETHOS!

stale meat pies of questionable origin - YES
sous vide ice cream meringue tárte - NO SIR!

Stella and Newky Broon - YES
McWankburgs Peculiar Massachusets Craft Ale - NO SIR!

Ok, put it like that and it was definitely fancy compared to some pubs I've been to- I'll give you that.

I read that fires are allowed but you have to supply your own tractor tyres and tellys.

And if anyone else can bring firewood it'd be appreciated, I can manage some but more is always good- I'm taking a fire basket to keep it off the ground, pre-sawn 1' lengths to fit the basket are always good.

I'll be getting there early afternoon, probably around5/6ish. I'll bring as much firewood as I can carry, excess aint eactly built for carrying much but a rider mind.

Parcel of bits has arrived and it's missing the shaft seals so no point in reassembling with a new clutch if it's going to piss oil onto it.
No idea when the rest of the bits will arrive but atleast they've not charged me PnP for what they left off.

Request to anyone coming to VJs FuP/ MeltDown:

Please keep your eyes open for sources of firewood when you get closer to the pub and it'll make collecting it easier when we need more.

Just got home. My clutch seems to have sprung a leak, but topping up the fluid got me home ok.
A small but enjoyable FuP, the pub was great and so was the company Smile Roll on the next bash!
