A Farewell Shandy Anyone?


Anita says goodbye to John & Carol - or are they just hogging the fire?

Just a quick post to say thank you to those who made it down on Saturday despite the extreme weather and heavy snow. In the end there were 8 of us, which was a good turn out considering 4x4's were the order of the day rather than spridgets! Here's hoping for an imminent thaw and clearer weather for the February meeting. If you were unable to make it and want to say farewell to Mark & Anita, they are having an open afternoon and evening at Blind Jack's in Knaresborough on Saturday 16th January - just drop in and have a farewell shandy with them at any time!

Weather Report for January Meeting

The hill into Thornton-le-Beans at 8:30 am on Saturday 9th January

The meeting is still on, despite last night's inclement weather, but please don't attempt it in a spridget or a rear wheel drive car. Traffic is moving freely on the A168 between Thirsk and Northallerton. Leaving the A168, the road into Thornton-le-Beans has snow cover of about an inch or two, but is perfectly passable in front wheel drive and 4 wheel drive vehicles, if you drive with care. Weather is currently blue sky and sunshine.

Hope to see some of you, but please don't take any risks getting here.
