Summer BQ - Steve's Pad (Cadnam)

Having been chatting to Steve K half a dozen times a day, he's 'suggested' using his extensive facilities
for a Summer BQ/Pig roast. Working around the viper calendar, maybe early July or middle of August is best,
if you have a preferred date let me know, he's flexible of the date. Steve is thinking of a Saturday, then anyone who wants to stop over and have a very late drink in his grounds are welcome to stop over in his B&B next door, or for you Lemans freaks camp outside in his gardens. Then take in Sunday Lunch at his restaurant, about 2 miles away.

I've been to his cottage, Saint Jacques its an ideal place for such a event with plenty of parking and your viper will be safe left outside his cottage overnight. Hopefully by then Steve will be up to 4 vipers

I've suggested we all chip in and get outside caters in for the BQ, if enough people are interested, making things a lot easier and more enjoyable.

If you've any ideas let me know

Sounds good- I've got an 18ft catering unit, with an 8ft griddle, and all the associated cooking stuff, we can provide silver service or BBQ, whatever you want......plus a full compliment of staff that can travel with & serve, plus discounted ales/ spirits/ alcopops, soft drinks/ whatever from the pub, etc ....if it helps (nil charge apart from covering food & staff costs)- I doubt you'll find anybody cheaper. Neil/ Paul/ whoever... if you or anybody wants, come over, check it out- it's in the Frying Pan Lock-up and can be wheeled out anytime.

The more the merrier as far as I'm concerned- plus the crew are just waiting for an excuse to get to Le Mans!

This is where we stand at the moment, anyone wishing to book a room in Steve's B&B for the Saturday night
the cost is £40 per room with a twin including breakfast. Steve doesn't mind anyone camping out,
within his grounds and can provide access to a
toilet/shower

Paul Hadley (aka Chesta) has kindly agreed to drive his catering trailer down with a friend and do the cooking, all we need to do is cover the costs of his petrol, BQ food and a room for the night, and a ride in a very quick viper... To make things easier please bring for your alcohol. Steve has generously thrown £200 in the pot to cover some of the costs, there will also be a small charge for each attendee who plans to eat.

Please let me know ASAP if you are able to attend, and if you require a room, tent space or veggie type food

cheers
Neil
