There is also another about 1 minutes drive from college in the other direction!

However - none of them have a fun factory - so that's probably your best bet for the kids!


As for the rest of us....dunno.

I doubt the George and Fox will be open (sporadic opening at the mo), I think the Spread Eagle will be busy - but is the closest. The Littleton is the posh one and the The Railway, White Hart and Horse and Jockey are traditional pub pubs, but probably all a little small for a big gathering!


I'm pretty sure the Spread Eagle is the traditional post show meeting point, but I think last year some were thrown out for getting snakes out in the pub.....

dunno...

That a really nice offer Andy but surely putting spread on for everyone will be time consuming for you?

I completely forgot about the Spread Eagle but like you say it will be very busy on a sunday.


If others lead I shall follow

I think it would be a good idea to find out which way people will be heading back home. As Fantapants says she has to have somewhere were the kids can go. Scotch corner is on Jct 13 M6 you can head north or south from here.

Spread Eagle is situated on the A5 and is pretty much an equal distance from Jct 12 and Jct 13. Plenty of pubs actually in Penkridge its self but as already said some are small and traditional others are going to be busy.

Like I've said already I'll let people decide as I'm local to them all

[bothrops]

Agreed! I actually live in Penkridge itself, so ANY of them are good for me!

When was the last one and what happened

Shall we just say Scotch Corner then as it is right on the M6 for those who are travelling. It is a family place, its two for one as well so wont take up what little money people have left after buying reptiles

2.30 pm sound ok?
