Guest HairyPlateEater Posted October 26, 2006 Report Posted October 26, 2006 IMPORTANT: CHANGE OF INITIAL MEETING PLACE! All, I have today been to check out The Harbour Inn and to put it politely, it is crap! The description is WAY off the mark on the link I put up! There were 3 people inside when I investigated and there wasn't much more room for any others!! It also took me over an hour to find the place as it was at the end of an unadopted single track road about 4 miles away from the Safari Park. So ..... I feel I must change the initial meeting place. The best place I could find was a small shopping park called Weavers Wharf in the centre of Kidderminster. It is about a 5 minute drive from the Safari Park and has a McDonalds, Pizza Hut and Frankie & Benny's so places to eat for those wanting to and plenty of parking spaces. The address of Frankie & Benny's (for route planning/satnav) is:The Pump HouseWeavers WharfKidderminsterDY10 1AA The pump house has a large chimney that can be seen from the main A451 Ringway Road that I would imagine most will use to get to the Park. Apologies for this late change in itinerary, but The Harbour Inn just isn't worthy of our patronage :ph34r: Any further questions about this can be addressed either here or in the live chat on Sunday 29th @ 18:00hrs. Thanks all Paul

Guest HairyPlateEater Posted October 30, 2006 Report Posted October 30, 2006 Frankie & Benny's has been booked for 12:30 for 18 people (to be on the safe side). They will be laying out 1 big table for us so should be fun!! Frankie & Benny's Website has details of menus etc so you can start buliding up your apetite now! If anyone that has already confirmed attendance, can't make it for any reason, can they let me know so I can amend numbers with F&B's Cheers Paul
