FlymoFraser Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 I know a few are staying at the Travel Lodge at Arundel Fontwell on Friday night. Any plans for a meal or beer? Come to think of it, is there a pub near by?

Mrs Kipper Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 Neil I expect Kipper and I will treat ourselves to the delights of the Little Chef or Burger King next to the Travel Lodge. Mrs K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Kipper Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 Just done a search for pubs in Fontwell. There's one called The Old Stables that could be just down the road from the Travel Lodge. It does food, but you can't book a table. Mrs K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlymoFraser Posted April 24, 2008 Author Share Posted April 24, 2008 Chris & Gemma Hawkes, Colin Hesletine, John Caldicott (possibly later on)and I will be staying down there. John will be celebrating victory or drowning his sorrows on Friday evening or ☹️ as appropriate,I'm sure we can all help either way 😬. The stables looks like the only watering hole in walking distance!

Dannyboy Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 The Old Stables has a website....not cheap, but GTD and Mrs GTD have mentioned that it's rather excellent!!! Could be worth going into Chichester!!! not far away at all!! Dannyboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robmar Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 if you fancy a little bit of a drive, I am staying with the family (not competing) at this place down at pagham / sidlesham Crab & Lobster rob Edited by - robmar on 24 Apr 2008 11:32:35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Kipper Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 What time is everyone getting to the Travelodge? Mrs K and I will be taking a leisurely drive down on Friday afternoon so will probably be the first to arrive. Kipper Fun is not a straight line.

Mrs Kipper Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 9pm That's way past bed time for a SagaSevener 😬 I think we will have eaten by then. Kipper Fun is not a straight line. Edited by - Kipper on 24 Apr 2008 13:29:17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlymoFraser Posted April 24, 2008 Author Share Posted April 24, 2008 Rob Be great to meet up but as we won't all be arriving early we will probably stay local. Kipper re bed time, not what Id heard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Laddie Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 Will be leaving Southend about 7pm & hope to arrive about 10pm, so if you can post up here where the beer is, will be happy to imbibe Enjoy, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leon Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Hi all, 😶🌫️ The 'old stables' at fontwell is a new harvester type pub so you cannot book tables. There are several good food venues within a few miles of the travelodge. The Nags Head in chichester does an excellent carvery, Try the Gribble at Oving for real ale and good food (west sussex regular monthly venue) The Angleseay arms at Boxgrove / Strettington has a real 'local feel and great steaks. Get Gemma / Chris Hawkes to Give Bev or I a buzz or pm me with a phone number for other options, I wouldn't touch the Old Stables with your bargepole personally 😬 it's RAC Orange for a reason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTD Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Not sure we said the Stables was excellent - maybe the Kennels, Dan? The Stables is a one of a chain of pub/restaurants and does your standard pub fare to average quality. OTOH it's on site and you don't have to drive! And it's a few yards from a Shell petrol station!

rgrigsby Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Not to sure about most classes but Mr.Williams certainly got the hang of his new toy with a 89.65 and 1st place in Class 5. Rob G www.SpeedySeven.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Durrant Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 The results will be posted on Competitors Korner once I have received them from the organising club. The class winners and times are as follows: Class 1 - Andrew Willoughby 104.76 Class 2 - Mike Sankey 97.77 Class 3 - David Nelson 94.65 Class 4 - Neil Cavanagh 94.61 Class 5 - Adrian Williams 89.64 Class 6 - Adam Hay 114.56 I should also mention that at the awards presented by the Bognor Regis Motor Club Gill Elwell picked up the award for the greatest improvement on the third timed run and Lynn Gilbert was the fastest lady . If there had been an award for clipping the tyres at the chicane this would have been given to the current holder of the Golden Trowel I hope Nigel Fox gets his diff fixed in time for Llandow and Paul Gibb finds a way of reducing the induction noise so he can compete at Goodwood next year. A good start to the season Mark D Comp Sec Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
