Hi, Just had a look on multi-map and it looks like the pub is just off the M5 at J2 not J3 are there 2 pubs of the same name quite close to one another?.

Could someone send me some fool proof directions please I will be driving up from the south on the M5.

oh yeah, i mean fool proof. I am chaos in a car.

Thank you

good grief....me thinks we don't want to be on that big roundabout at the same time as chocolatedog. What colour is your car and what time will you be arriving, so we can give you a wide berth!? :rolleyes:

And it's still on the 30th (after I confused everyone :o )

Afternoon or late afternoon is good for me. And why are there so many sparkys trying to go I'm one of them, so is there something I don't know about!!!
