Another good night had by all, nice to see everyone old, very old and new!
The general opinion regarding the Arden Inn was quite negative, in particular the lager was poor, the seating wasn't great, but the smokers came and went which meant there was always a few people in the room, the railway was better all round but for me...raised a question... Its quite cosy in the smoking area and as a result those who smoke got comfy outside, the question is... are the non smokers happier with the meet split? On this occasion more smokers than non smokers, or did they prefer the old times when everyone was together but they had the smoke to contend with indoors? I am guessing that the 'arrangement' of the railway smoking area meant that the non smokers likely went home with the smell of smoke on their clothes?
