Pub Lunch 28th July 2018

Post by Kevan Elliott »

It is now almost 3 years since we last had a pub lunch meet,
and as we are currently without an area representative I have decided to try and organise one,
while the weather is still good.
(let me make it clear at this point I am not intending to be the next area rep)

We used to meet regularly at a pub called the Hermit of Redcoats, between Hitchin & Stevenage.
I have chosen this as the venue as many of you will remember it from those days.
I have made a recce there this week, still has a large car park which is the most important thing.
The pub has changed manager a few times and looks different inside now,
look on the website for details and menus
http://www.thehermitofredcoats.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

This is not a formal JOC meeting, just an informal chance for a pint and a chat about Jensen matters.
I shall be there, in the car park, from about 12.15 on, and invite any of you to join me.
I know the 28th is only 2 weeks away and people are on holiday, but any later and I will be away.
Sorry about the short notice.
If I am still on my own at 1.00 I will just go inside and order my steak and chips, and another beer.

I had initially not intended to book a table or pre-order food, but speaking to the manager this week,
she suggested if there will be a fair number it would be helpful to let her know so she can organise a table.
If you can let me know that you are coming that would be great, but don’t worry if you can’t.
I still want this to be low-key and flexible, and there’s plenty of room to sit outside if the weather remains good.

Many thanks to Rob, Alan and Matt for joining me for lunch.
Good food, good beer and it was great to meet up with fellow Jensen enthusiasts.
I will try and give more notice next time and hopefully more of us will be able to make it.

The sun shone, perfect Jensen Healey weather.
Mine is the yellow one.
Alan and Matt own a late model, one of the last few made, with a GT dash.
It was on the London-Brighton run earlier this year.
Rob was without his CV8, as the engine is out for repairs.
