We all love to eat (well, it's more of a neccesity than anything)
With that in mind would it be worth creating (Tim...) a new forum, perhaps with the 'Links/Recommendations'?, for 'good grub'?
This could encompass cafes, restaurants, take-aways, truck stops, pub-food, etc..........
As you/we travel around the country wouldn't it be nice to know where to stop for food - be you on holiday, business, or simply pleasure?
Big White Sheds On Wheels (http://www.touringandtenting.com) have a forum for this & it's well read.
What does anyone else think?
Please if it does happen include as many details as possible'
Name
Address (or reasonable directions)
Phone number
Web-site (if they have one & you know it)
OS Map referance
Type of food served
-
maybe worth splitting up the categories into the roads they are on or the counties they are in?
-
Even by county or road you would still have to divide down to nearest town/junction.. Could be very useful though :)
-
too right!
hopefully mr burt will read this and act upon maybe?
:D :wink:
-
Aye, cos he does not have enough to do really does he ;)
-

'Go Touring.com' (which is now defunct) split it up by country
England
Scotland
(and that small wet country next to the Irish Sea :lol: )
-
Did that have a search function aswell then Richard?

No, they were just listed 'ad-hoc' as the outlet was added.
Admittedly a search by county would be a nice facility, but being a bit of a 'Techno-Luddite' I wouldn't know what was involved for Tim to initate a search facility.
As an aside, should comments on the relative merits of various Breweries products in any pubs listed be made?

Would have thought so, non drivers in every party :)

Someone doesn't know their Left from their Right.
I was thinking of a country that's a bit further south-west, than Yorkshire. Y'know the one where the locals wear Wellies when they go 'courting', & call their girl-friends; "Baaa-bera" :lol:
Plenty of good food their though; all kinds of 'baa-snacks' in the pubs :lol:
-
Seriously though, I've got a fair list already covering Yorkshire, Derbyshire, Cumbria (& Lancashire :shock: )
-
I've set something up in the 'Recommendations' area.
Please take a look. We'll see how it goes and if we need to change anything.

He's a good lad our Tim.

Interesting idea . Offroading .com has a PUb and Beer section, beer section is particularly of interest to us real ale drinkers.
-
He's a good man that Tim :D :wink:
-
Yeah, but I'd watch out for that BTM, he's too clever by half, that bloke. Always coming up with clever ideas! :wink:
Top suggestion, that man!
Ta, Tim as well!
cheers

Oh stop it, you're making me blush!! :oops: :oops: :wink:
Just thought it'd be handy for everyone as they travelled around, but as always; 'One Mans Meat Is Another Mans Poison'
Even though we (the poster) might like it, a person acting on recommendation might not.
So I suppose the (approximate) phrase is; 'Caveat Emptor'
-
'One Mans Meat'
Ewwwwww, Dude! :shock: I know this is a food thread, but there are some things I just ain't eating!!
:lol: :lol: :wink:
