Guys, good news!! I have persuaded the boss to allow me to put a little section aside for you in the pub, its not much but its a biggish table that seats 12 with some standing room around it. I will label it RESERVED with for NOT606'ers on it. To make you aware of where it is when you come in, it is the high table on the right hand side of the pub opposite the far end of the bar. I will be the short, stocky guy with the dodgy handlear tash behind the bar!! Look forward to meeting you all!!
Your in luck guys the govenors are from Galway and my parents are Mayo so there is more than a little Irish behind the bar!
cheers mortlake! is there a wall behind it for the flag? I've got string so it can be attached to any fittings etc without causing any damage.
Its actually on the window side of the pub but I am sure there is some way of putting it up!! How big is the flag?
Oh that's fine I will practice with one of our flags which is a similar size and find a way of putting it up before you arrive.
Hiya Dave, Sounds like you are travelling Ryanair. I am on the Aer Lingus flight to Gatwick which arrives an hour after you. If I popped into the Springbok with a taxi and brought you around to the Crown & Sceptre would you accept the lift? It would be great to meet you and have you join us. Let me know. Cheers.
Dave, I reckon I will be at the Springbok about 12. I can arrive in a taxi and bring you up to the Crown & Sceptre. We can organise a taxi to bring you back to the ground before the match.
I'm gonna try and make it. Am coming up from West Sussex and have some stuff to do in Guildford on the way, so hopefully will be there around 1.30pm If I see people hanging out of the pub windows, I'll know QPRNOt606 has overdone it on the numbers!
You can add two more to the list, Dublin Dave - I will do whatever it takes to get him there. Dubliner off Indy R's is going too. The lad we met in Belfast at the Macca game. I am also bringing 3 London based relatives with me.
