Dave_Q Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 As mentioned on the thread for Northern Powerhouse Classic, I can't make it on Tuesdays anymore. I'm sure the now longstanding tradition of eating a slab o'cow at Glossop spoons will continue regardless, but would anyone be up for a more Northerner version? Proposal: 2nd or 3rd Wednesday of the month, so as not to clash with NP Classic. Place: The White House Pub & Restaurant, Littleborough, OL15 0LG: https://thewhitehousepub.co.uk/ https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/The+White+House/@53.6573352,-2.0493041,16z/ Quote The White House stands like a land mark high on the Pennine hills, with panoramic views of the surrounding moors and Hollingworth Lake far below. The old coaching house dates from 1671 and is situated 1,300 feet above sea level. The Coach and Horses (the original name) is where “the young bloods of Littleborough having guarded the mail coach from highway men would seek recompense for their labours with vigorous applications to strong liquors” Motorway access isn't great but who wants to drive on motorways? Has big car park and beer and food. First meeting on Wednesday 13th Feb? 7ish PM? Any takers? Squire_Dawson and chaseracer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave_Q Posted January 29, 2019 Author Share Posted January 29, 2019 Nice one all. Just a note to anyone who isn't sure: guarding the mail coach from highway men then seeking recompense with vigorous applications to strong liquors is not compulsory, although it is encouraged.

Dave_Q Posted February 6, 2019 Author Share Posted February 6, 2019 Bump,this will be a week today. Hopefully we will get slightly less police attention than NP Classic did last night. Junkman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bub2006 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 90 mile each way for me. Twice as long as Glossop but takes same amount of time approximately. I'd be tempted to give it a shit but not this month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conrad D. Conelrad Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 true Worse still I have lost the money I was going to spend here. The old school physical loss of cash way, rather than my crypto stocks taking a dive. Junkman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave_Q Posted February 13, 2019 Author Share Posted February 13, 2019 If nobody is going to come maybe we can do next week? But I think we will have me, Conrad, Mally?
