    A get together (stopover) on the night of Melbournes vintage fayre anyone interested.

    After Blackriders idea a few weeks back with regards a bit of a collectables get together/social evening on the night of this much looked forward to event. Well we now have a date for Melbournes fayre. So my good buddy and mega wooly MallyAlly plus our nutty but hilarious pal Kenny are booking into the nearest premier inn to the venue so we can hopefully get some kind of get together planned. Bear in mind a pre booked Premier inn is only £29 for the night, so in our case £10 each. And we get to have a few beers a decent meal and talk airguns all night. Although Malcolm is sharing the double bed with Kenny, you have to draw the line somewhere . I'm hoping that John (Blackrider) and his illustrious side kick GoldenknackersJB still fancy this stop over too.

    Anyone else fancy this, could be the icing on an already wonderful vintage/bell target cake

    Now that has just made my day lads , nice one. Really looking forward to meeting you two. Why not get the same Premier inn then we have food and a bar on sight with no need to travel any distance.

    Tour guide

    Chris H is happy to be your tour guide fellas

    Quote from Madmike on another forum

    ------------we are in for a stonker..if any people want to stay over on the Sat. night I can advise local Hotels/BB's/Guest houses/camping...some in Melbourne..some near..there are loads...

    I can compile a list of "over-nighter's" if they contact me..& liaise with them about a gentle walk around local pubs in the town.. If people want to arrive Sat afternoon I would even show them some of the local history/site's too..google Calke abbey..just down the road..A Nat. Trust property frozen in time.

    e-mail chough557@aol.com


    In Melbourne we have 5 pubs,1 club,3 (English) restaurants,3 takeaways,Taiwanese restaurant,2 Indian restaurants,2 cash points..it really is not much bigger than a village..really looking forwards to seeing who piles up...I'll certainly recognise one big hairy @'d northern lorry driver...if he turns up..guess him & his loyal "entourage" will fly into East Mids.airport..bet he set's the metal detectors off.
