Crash Override Posted February 1, 2007 Posted February 1, 2007 Hi to you all, I'm still trying to find my feet with being your new AO so a few things are taking there time, like compiling a list of what we are up to through the year so please bare with me. Some of you have expressed the wish to visit the Westfield Factory, so I have spoken to Holly Bond and she has said that we are all welcome to go along for the full tour of course it would have to be a week day and the date of Thursday 22nd of Feb has come up as it is also the area meet night so we could make a full day of it. She has said the time of 9am if everyone is ok with that. There's a quaint place not far from the factory where we could go for lunch called the crooked house, so I need to know numbers asap to see if they can accomodate us. Then maybe a bit of a senic drive back to the highwayman in time for the meet. Could be your first chance of the year to have a blast out in the Westfield and take it home. Hope you are able to make it as it would be a great day out. Malc. Quote

Rob Marshall Posted February 1, 2007 Posted February 1, 2007 Malc I am not sure about mid week, I have been round several times before, so I am reluctant to take a day off work. Sorry. Rob Quote

I personally think it serves very good food and the marble rolling up the bar is certainly an interesting sight to see. Quote
