Ahhhhh, the good old Arsegroper!!!

We are doing Guy B's car that day, so no can do. It also means that Guy won't be able to go either

Shame, it's a great venue

dead easy to find if you are coming up the A21

Take the Westerham Exit which is the first of three exits when you come down the hill ( you'll see what i mean on route)
Then just stay on that road (a25) through the lights at Sundridge, straight through Brasted and Westerham and the Arsegropper is situated on the right hand side about 1/2 mile outside Westerham on the a25
Cant mis it especialy as they have just put up there Silver Christmas lights
Even if you are looning, it the car park is so long you will still be able to stop in time for one of the other entrances

Regards
Ian

Booked a table for 12 of us at 1pm, which should be about right (there's 3 names on Surrey as well). Sure they can accomodate us if a theres a few extras on the day.

See you tomorrow at 12:30pm folks, if you're the first to arrive at the pub, then please park up the far end of the car park so we can all park together.

Good to see you Juppy, I hope you enjoyed your last little bit of the journey down to peasmarsh. A bit more exciting then the A21 on a Saturday.

Was a good venue if a little pricey and slow delivery for some eaters.
