Hello all,

87 Derby Rd, Melbourne, DE73 1FE

Next door to Budgens supermarket

As above, although some satnavs seem to have an issue recognising the "1FE" address, just use "87 Derby Road, Melbourne" as the input.

The flyer (and the Post Office) give the postcode as DE73 8FE.

Some satnavs won't recognise that as a valid address. I suspect it depends on whether you have updated the database in the last couple of years, which database is used etc.

All of the postcodes mentionned in this thread give locations within 100 yards of the club's front door. A quick look at the Google Streetview link above should remove any lingering doubts as to exactly where the club is and what it looks like. HTH

As Nick says if your satnav does not recognise the post code use the address - 87 Derby Road, Melbourne, Derby

Budgens supermarket is next door and is quite a big supermarket, so is a good place to aim for and well known by the locals

Regards

The Legion was easy to find once in Melbourne, knowing it was next to Budgens made it a doddle.

But... arguing with the satnav over postcodes wasted precious time and meant I missed a fair few bargains.
Just putting melbourne in was almost a very costly mistake...It was only when it told me to carry on following the A42, when well past Ashby dlz that I twigged we weren't going to Derbyshire

I'm sure there are plenty like me, who know pretty much where they're heading and just use the satnav for the final destination. Then spend the whole trip arguing with the damned thing as you know a better route

One week to go!!!!

We will have a skan chrono available for anyone wishing to test a rifle/pistol before or after buying
