Golden Swan

If you are going away somewhere and don't mind meeting up with other Bongo owners or if you've been somewhere & want to tell us about it & stick up your photos, put the details here.

Shall we go back here for Easter?

We have had a great welcome the last couple of years. :D

I'm planning to go to the Welsh Bash (the Gower) which is the weekend after Easter, so I was planning to spend Easter up until then somewhere in Wales (to save diesel by not travelling around the country too much!). Not booked anything yet though, still in the planning stages.

Would it not be a better idea to go to the Golden Lion just before Easter, where we may have the place to ourselves again?

I know March well, did some work there a few years ago.

No Golden Swan, though. :lol:

March in March, of course, as that's where the Golden Swan is!

So far, all my weekends in March are free except the last one. Is Graham around? He usually books this one with the pub ... Need his input because of the band.

Good to hear you're doing the Welsh Bash Bob. I am planning to go somewhere else for Easter up to the Welsh Bash. Any ideas?

Sadly we have to work between Easter and the Welsh Bash. :(

These days, though, we're lucky to have jobs to moan about. :)

Add me to the list for this one. Its always a good one. I am going to the Welsh Bash, but I doubt if I will go to Wales before that date. Its a straight run up the M4 for me, so its not like yomping over the mountains. :shock:

Its Southern Softies the 28 to 30 March. Then I am off to Eastern Europe until 9th April, so the only possible early weekend for me is 11 to 13 April. :shock:

If Graham doesn't come along soon, I'll contact the pub.

Mrs B has Friday 14 March booked so we could easily do that one. :D

She also has Friday 28, but that clashes with Softies, which I don't think we'll get to, not sure on that one yet. [-o<

Good with us, Easter being late it will be nice to start the season. :D :D :D

Edit: Jilly, why not open it to our new friends from your other Clubs?

Assuming the pub will have us. :lol:
