Porsche Enthusiasts Club Forum

Hi Folks

Next Monday - 11th October is Club Night and will be the first at our new venue.

The Red Lion has served us well for the last 4 years but the internal refurb has left us without a function room for the dark nights and so we've been forced to move elsewhere.

The new venue is Westmead Hotel, Redditch Road, Hopwood. Birmingham B48 7AL - an easy 1 mile from junction 2 M42 heading towards Birmingham on the right hand side.

Full details can be found here: http://www.westmeadhotel.co.uk/Default.aspx

The venue has just been refurbished at a huge cost and offers us very upmarket and pleasing bar and restaurant facilities togther with use of various function rooms.
The car park has only one entrance/exit so is secure and benefits from CCTV

Whether this new venue is as successful as the Red Lion only time will tell but please come along on our first meet to take a look at the venue, have a drink and help convince the hotel they have done the right thing by accepting us as their guests


I'll bring a Playstation along so we can act daft with some games and take advantage of the large plasma screen in the function room

Shame about The Red Lion - if only they hadn't made a whole in that wall and removed 'our' door.

Just had a look at the route to the new venue - excellent cross country blast for me. 911 might get a bit dirty but will be worth it on that run. Doh - just realised my route takes me through a ford!! Not the best plan for the season we are in. Gunna have to take a slight detour then - oh yeah!!

See you on the 11th....

Blimey walking distance for Derek then !!

Forget the detour and put some muck under the wheelarches! It will keep you out of the pubs next week cleaning up the mess

It's not too far

Don't forget it's a new venue for tomorrow night!

Sorry Paul in London all week from tomorrow.

Good luck at the new venue!

Hope to see everyone at Vakas if this is still on next Saturday night?

Cheers,

Adrian

Hopefully see you tomorrow with clean wheel arches

Cant wait to see your beautiful Supersport Lindsay and hear all about it, but at this rate I'll only see it in the dark till next year!

Hope everyone enjoyed inaugural meet at new venue.

I've put you on the list for Vakas

The new venue seemed generally well received although its very different from the Red Lion. Hopefully once the shock of the change has died down we'll all get used to the function room, plasma TV and air conditioning The car park will be great for some tyre kicking in the spring
