On the two recent runs we discussed the idea of a regular informal monthly pub get together. The consensus was that the 2nd Monday seemed OK for those present and we agreed to meet up at the Unicorn in Cardiff - just off M4 Junction 30.
There's no set agenda/format - just turning up and having a chat, organise some ideas on runs etc. Anytime after 7pm really.
Lesley & I will be eating as I'm going straight from work. It's not usually busy enough to have to book tables etc.
The next 2nd Monday is 14th March.. Who's up for it? We'll be there.
Phil & Lesley
Directions - M4J30. take dual carriageway towards B&Q/Asda etc. At st roundabout take left turn (not B&Q/Asda) - Unicorn is signposted. Follow road through offset T junction. Pub is 50yds on left. Parking to front and rear.

Andy and I should both be there although coming separately from different directions as we'll both be coming straight from work. I don't finish in Usk til 7.30pm but will try and get out early if I can but certainly don't wait for me to get there before ordering your own food. I'll post this on Facebook too  |

It's tomorrow. We'll be coming from home as I working from home for a while as Lesley is recovering from having operations on both wrists last Wednesday. She's making good progress but still needs lots of help as her wrists are now very week.
See you there..
Phil

Great to see everyone at the pub meet tonight  Thanks particularly to Phil & Lesley for sorting the venue. I think given the relatively central location, decent food and big car park, we'll definitely look to use this for a regular once a month pub meet every second Monday of each month. I'll do a new post in the next day or so and work out a list of main event and pub meets etc |

Many thanks everyone.. it was a nice evening.. and great that so many of you got there.
We had a chat with the owner as we were leaving and he said he was a bit concerned about the timing of getting the food out to everyone, and wondered if next time it may be better if we ordered at the bar soon after we arrive etc. Pluses and minuses I suppose. We have a few weeks to think about it. Maybe I should have called them once I realised that we were likely to be more than 10..
Now I have to start planning the Llyn Briane run properly.
