Having checked The Ely on Tripadvisor I find he is not the manager but deputy manager. Had I known that at the time I would have demanded to speak to the real manager. Interesting to note on Tripadvisor that The Ely always thanks those who make positive comments but fails to respond to negative ones. As for setting up a thread to discuss, I feel I should check out a few of the alternatives suggested, with that in mind I might set up a "pay for alanjay's exploratory lunches" post. |

Good morning Julien I can see no useful purpose in bringing this into the forum for discussion. We should be looking for a solution to arranging the next meet in more amicable surroundings, a meet local or not too far from The Ely for the regulars. A car park with no parking lines and the pub management, trained in people and having a sense of humour skills

Meeting Place
Hi All, Lyn and I had time today to have a reckie at one of the alternative venues The New Inn Heckfield RG27 0LE as mentioned by Brickie 501 and have to say it's a great spot and our lunch was excellent to boot. It's also a Hotel which may be of interest to some.So the main thing is we had a chat with the Govnor who tells us they have many meets there and would be up to accommodate us the parking for us would be on the perimeter which would work well as I say the food was grt and frankly knocked the Ely into a cocked hat. This is of course a suggestion well worth considering to replace or even run along with the Ely if that is possible.
It is possible that we could have a "test run" on the Sun 21st Feb. So food for thought Guys & Girls |

Hi Gus sounds good but could it be in March as I plan a meet at the kings arms in February and hope some will support us as in previous times and very likely those wanting keys could get luckyvat the meet, will post details at weekend I will happily support you and Lynn at the new venue which sounds very positive :-)

Forgive me for saying this but it takes a man of your wisdom and years to review your opinion and by that, I mean you are a true gentleman and 75 owner, willing to adapt for the greater good. Hopefully one of our RS's would be happy to arrange a meet as suggested by Gus, if not I'll risk sticking my head above the parapet again. Finally, special message to Woof 25, I know the suggested meet date is close to yours but IMHO, you can't have to many 75 meets, Rover or MG marque, it's up to all 75 owners to say we possess one of Britain's finest ever cars and we are proud of it. |
