Summer drinks-picnic-fishing trip-get together or just general Northern piss up?

[Orang Utan]

So it it now 19th August?

 

[Orang Utan]

Both these pubs are near Leeds station:
The Grove Inn Leeds
Head of Steam Leeds, City Centre | Head Of Steam | The Head Of Steam
And there's a big Wetherspoons in the annexe to the station.

And which of these is it to be?

 

[Orang Utan]

Although I think we should go to this:
Mr Foleys
it's only a walk up Park Row from the station and it won best cider pub nationally last year or summat.
It has a decent selection of Urbanite-pleasing real ales, craft beers and artisan lagers and I don't remember shrieking in shock at the prices.

 

[Orang Utan]

24 ciders!
12 real ale pumps
100 bottled beers
and two craft ale lines
Good gin
Food is alright too - you can get a pie, mushy peas and a pint for £5.45
They have nice bar snacks as well - their pork pies are decent

 

[Cid]

Sounds good, dunno if I can make it but will certainly try - been years since I last saw Urbans.

Can't make it. See you at the next one

 

[5t3IIa]

Can't make it. See you at the next one

Nooooooo!

 

[Orang Utan]

Wait a minute, it was Shirl 's idea, so she shouldn't miss out. What date is good for you?

 

[Orang Utan]

Though, looking back, Shirl picked those dates in the first place.
What's she playing at?

 

[Glitter]

I'll have to confirm later. 21st is Meggy's birthday so dunno if we're celebrating the weekend before or after yet.

I think I may be ok to come now. Wolfie has got a job working weekends now and he was my stand in to keep my studio open if I went out for the day. I can probably get someone else to do it or shut if I need to.

 

[Stig]

I think I can do Leeds

 

[Fez909]

I suppose I could drag myself to Leeds

 

[space-tout]

It would be nice for me to have a day out of Blackpool. I have an ex from leeds so know the spoons mentioned. i'll keep my eye on this.

We're not going there now. It's Mr Foley's, up Park Row on The Headrow

 

[space-tout]

I'll just tag on at the back as i don't know the place mentioned.


Someone can just collect me from the station.

 

[rich!]

Mr Foley's is the one that used to be a bank or something with lots and lots of upstairs? If so, I'm there.

9.35 out of London arr 11.46, return 20.15 arr 22.40? £32

 

[moomoo]

I'd love to come to this but I can't commit to anything so I'm a 'maybe'.

 

[rich!]

Traditionally, about this time I'd buy a load of advance tickets and end up giving them to mango5 for the actual day.

Any Londoners up for that?

 

[friedaweed]

Have we set a date then yet?

 

[Dovydaitis]

19th august? Let me check work diary...

 

[Dovydaitis]

Just checked, it's my weekend off!

 

[dessiato]

I might actually be in Yorkshire then. If so, I'll try to get along. A definitely maybe.

 

[LDC]

Oh I might try to come. I've never met an Urban75 irl (that I know of). I haven't been on here than long though...

 

[aqua]

Sorry, having looked at train prices I'm out Have a cracking day everyone x
