Yes I think there a week later than normal, and Stoke bliss same day aswellRaglan was stoney and yes, @MrNoo does like his travelling chef to cook him a good full English!
We are not at the Welsh, clashes with the FFF&B match which is out local qualifier and supposed to be on some good soil this year which is quite rare for the FFF&B!

Is that the place at Swinton, north of the match ?Treated myself to a single occupancy Executive Doulble Room with king size bed.
Hope @MrNoo doesn't snore that loud as I have experienced that pleasure before when he has been in his tent before!
@Pennine Ploughing, last time I was anywhere that far north I was collecting a rather nice sleeper cab Mercedes 7.5T. Going to be a bit of a road trip, so decided on some luxury this time in a hotel.

Do you travel by lorry or have you got a jeep, there isn’t a lot of room for parking but if I know what you need I can sort out parking close by!

Not a bad little pub but parking will be a complete nightmare but could possibly help you with that if needed

Had a bit ask about, nobody has stayed for a while but rooms used to be pretty basic but the bar is ok!

Yes, looked quite basic to me, but I'm not bothered, its nice and close and I'll be walking in in muddy boots! They have a big car park at the side when I looked on Google maps, so I thought that might be OK. I'm coming up Friday aft and going Monday AM. If you no anyone local to the pub that might be useful...

Car park is public and always full, there is a place just a little further along the street that you could park I would just need to go ask the owner to make sure though!

OK, useful to know. I plan to arrive late afternoon so it would be a bugger if I couldn't park. It would be much appreciated if you could find out! My trucks about 27" long...
