Re Brekkie in rye
Andy you prune RYE is in EAST SUSSEX.
Its no wonder there"s mutiny in the ranks
The cafe is called CAFE ON THE QUAY as you say right on the roundabout
Another event for February 11th 2012
A day /evening out in Canterbury...
I suggest we have an afternoon wandering around Canterbury's medievel streets and perhaps the famous Cathedral, frequently stopping for refreshments of course..then a meal at a venue to be decided, followed up by more pubs/wine bars/club watever.Finish off with brekfast at the bikers cafe,The Sportsman in Wincheap (10min from hotel).
I suggesting using the Travel Lodge in the city as a base,rooms at the moment are around £30 a night.
Canterbury is a lovely walled city and is full of pubs/bars and the like. Very popular tourist attraction of course. It has a strong student population so should be busy enough to have a good atmosphere in darkest Feb.
If you want to add an extra evening perhaps this be worth a look?

So to sum up Sat from 12-00 ,wander around Canterbury, a good meal out in the evening followed by bars n pubs....all in a famous city.
Possible addition of visit to brand new theatre hosting a Swing tribute evening on the Friday?
I for one would do the tribute evening if anyone else fancies it too. Hotels cheap enuff!
A reminder..Maidstone Earls pub night is gtn closer,only a week to go!
Numbers up to 15 now so plse let us know if you coming by clicking the tab on the calender listing ta.
August 40s weekend picking up numbers slowly too, promises to be a great laff...pencil skirts you girls
Please use the attnding tab onthe calender if you going to this as I need to sort showers soon.
Finally there is as possible Feb event in Canterbury but until I get interest it cannot go on the calender, so plse comment here or on the other thread if you think you would like to attend.So far only four possible attendees which is not enuff to list on events calender. To organise events I need feedback! Its winter and few would want a ride out in Jan? The idea was a simple event in the warm!
Likewise there is little support for 'walk the dog' (mid jan). You dnt need a dog to attend, its a walk, a meal an a pint! simples! oh and a rope swing...oh and pillboxes, and windy paths, and views,and lush fish n chips too.
Anymore ideas for things in Feb/March folks? We need sumfin down Margate way or Sussex way? Weathers not ideal fer the bikes but we can go by car!!
Come on, its YOUR Biker Match....ideas on a postage stamp plse to Rossoandy...lol
Or come along to meeting next Thursday eve Maidstone..on calender
Just to make you aware, with regard to meeting tonite at Earls - due to tonites band being 'The Sex Pistols' there is a £2 charge on the door. Hope to still see you all there, should be great!
EARLS evening..Sarah and i arrived at venue around 7-30 to stake our pitch,band was settting up.. There was a £2 fee on the door for the band which is not usual but hey ho..
Members soon started to arrive and kept coming to around 9ish. We had a few non arrivals (shame on you) but turn out was fine and we all settled down to a good natter..We had to retire to the room upstairs after a while as conversation was difficult with the band playing but all in all a great social gathering. Looking forward to many more ...thanks all for attending.
Next meet Folkestone...14th JAN
Go look at events tab for piccies..
andy
Thanks to andy for organizing the evening at earls. I think thats a bit of an understatement to say conversation was difficult, it was virtually impossible the band was loud very loud, downstairs anyway (no need to go to get my ears cleared out at docs now).
It was good getting to meet everyone at long last, had a look at photo's, i got away with it this time (PHEW!) no piccy of me.
Looking forward to next time 14th Jan in Folkstone
Thanks due to Sarah! She seconded the venue, checked out parking and kept everyone informed...
On top off all that she bought everyona a drink too.

Having trouble finding clubs ,without politics ,as well so if anyone knows of such,please send me a message.....cheers
Ooops my apologies to sarah, i was under the impression that andy had set up the EARLS meet, slapped wrist for me for giving andy the credit & not sarah and a drink to boot aswell.
Thoroughly enjoyed myself meeting more crazy bikers.
Thanks Sarah if i may call you Sarah ?
