Fred .... hope you enjoyed your break..... If you go to The Victoria then make sure Stan directs you to the 'good' toilets there ..... otherwise wear wellington boots ....
I'm out of circulation in Brum until early Sept (due to hols).

PS: This place is quite good for a Friday afternoon session:

Survive.

Survived.

My grandchildren have more energy than I do.

Have photos of them walking through a hot air balloon.

France is a fascinating country.

Thinking of returning in mid Sept. for a few months holiday.

Stan, how about a meeting in second week of Sept.

Prefer a different Pub.

How about the MAC, which has re-opened.

Will be in touch.

Fred,

Would be nice to see what sort of a job they have done with the place but notice that they are no longer serving real ale but only draught beer at silly prices!

See what the others say, here is the link http://www.macarts.co.uk/page/3560/Food+Drink then click on quenchers.

The Arena Bar
The intimate Arena Bar provides a range of drinks and snacks including the return of real ale at mac Whether you want to relax after a film or grab a drink during the interval this is the place to do it

Anyone fancy Friday 3rd September (or is that too soon) luchtime'ish or after onwards

Lunchtime Sept.3rd is fine by me, but will have to take it easy as it's the Codsall Beer Festival starting at 5pm that evening!

That real ale boast by the mac needs challenging by the advertising standards people in my view -):

OK, by me.

I will be in contact.

According to the most recent post (3 months ago) on facebook regarding real ale at mac:
Just added cask conditioned ale from Wye Valley brewery some great tipples on offer..... draught to follow...................

Just bought by mistake a bottle of St Helier pear cider (Blackberry flavoured and coloured) and drank half of it.

No lying down it case it gets me.

If it useful can probably pick Stan and Surv. at the central station for the MAC.

Fred.... thanks for the offer .... not sure what state New Street Station is in at present .... I should be able to make whatever time that Stan can make..... will e-mail you seperately.

Review of the other outlet at mac:

.... "Ive also twice found the new main alcohol bar closed at the other end of the building when I rather expected it to be open"....Plan B if bar is closed? (pub on diagonally opposite corner of Pershore Road junction there has closed down now .... although I think it's still open to offers if you fancy running a bar) .... and the other nearest bar, the BBC Club, opposite the Nature Centre has finally been demolished.

Thanks for the lift Fred,

I would prefer an earlier start, 12.30 'ish due to later engagements.

The link does not work Chris.

OK. by me.

Try cutting the address in half.

I've updated the link .... works now ....

looks like a case of nice building design but woeful service, still be interesting to see what they have done with it.

How about 11am approx.

Yes, that's fine for me.

In an effort to reassure anyone who maybe considering coming to our little gathering and at great expense, I am pleased to be able to show you some edited highlights of one of our recent events.

.... looks like Plan B is required....

stoped by at the mac cafe this lunchtime for a good nibble .... bar was closed and they said it only opens at 18:00 during Monday-Friday

So, is Plan B a change of venue or a change of date?

Change of venue for me as I'm out the following Friday morning, as I had intended to stay "relatively dry" as they say because I have the Beer Fest. in the evening I'm not to fussed about the bar not being open (on this occasion only may I say -):

As I am driving, I am happy without alcohol and I think the MAC is quiet.

But not fussed about elsewhere.

If you wish me to pick up either, or both of you, can you work out where and when.

Happy to oblige.

Regards.

Sounds a RIOT LOL!
