I think it is still a requirement, e.g. Tim W. arrives by bus. CAMRA's site does offer a ‘near bus routes’ filter IIRC. September isn't far away, perhaps only two months until subs are due if it's the start of the month, so I'd have thought the time to begin the search is upon us. -- Cheers, Ralph. -- Next meeting: BEC, Bournemouth, Tuesday, 2019-07-02 20:00 Check to whom you are replying Meetings, mailing list, IRC, ... http://dorset.lug.org.uk/ New thread, don't hijack: mailto:dorset@mailman.lug.org.uk
Re: [Dorset] Next Meeting - One Week tonight
Not so many pubs around Wimborne these days. :( I thought one of the criteria for the location was bus availability. Is this not so much of a problem these days?

First it refused to let me proceed unless I allowed notifications. When I backed out of the page I got dire warnings about my phone being infected with a virus and inviting me to click on a link to clean it up (clean up my bank account was probably more likely). Anyway, I didn't and my phone's virus scanner confirmed that there was nothing untoward. So others who may be reading this list on a non-Linux machine; be warned! And Yes. There certainly do seem to be benches there, so I think we should be able to avoid the screaming hordes if need be -- Terry Coles -- Next meeting: BEC, Bournemouth, Tuesday, 2019-07-02 20:00 Check to whom you are replying Meetings, mailing list, IRC, ... http://dorset.lug.org.uk/ New thread, don't hijack: mailto:dorset@mailman.lug.org.uk

The aerial photos from the council, and Google's Streetview, don't show that construction in the car park, but do show some outside seating.

Hi Terry, > There have been no more suggestions, so I guess we stick with next > Tuesday at the BEC and hope for the best. Agreed? Agreed. CAMRA's https://whatpub.com allows filtering of location-based results by lots of criteria, including ‘quiet’, that I presume means no music or TV audio. Someone with time and local knowledge could come up with contenders for future consideration. An example, it doesn't have to be Winton. https://whatpub.com/search?q=Winton&t=t&p=1&lat=50.7333&lng=-1.86667&features=Quiet -- Cheers, Ralph. -- Next meeting: BEC, Bournemouth, Tuesday, 2019-07-02 20:00 Check to whom you are replying Meetings, mailing list, IRC, ... http://dorset.lug.org.uk/ New thread, don't hijack: mailto:dorset@mailman.lug.org.uk
