Nov 23rd 2017 - West Beers 10th Birthday

Wests will be 10 later this month.

Wests is currently based even further west in Ealing,
(though it did spend the Summer along the Thames in Putney & Mortlake),
and the venue is the double header of the Red Lion and the next door Santa Maria Pizzeria.

• Red Lion, W5 5RA (Fullers pub) http://www.redlionealing.co.uk/
  
• Santa Maria Pizzeria, W5 5RA (owned by forumenger) http://www.santamariapizzeria.com/
  
  

Robert, the Manager of the Red Lion, has reserved us the tables by the rear entrance to the covered beer garden, (which will be opened to allow for bike parking).

Beers are pictured on Post 158.

The pizza oven can only cook 3 pizzas at a time, so the hand-crafted tastiness may take a while at peak times, especially if the Pizzeria is busy.

Dietary limitations;
The Santa Maria uses mozzarella that is neither vegan nor vegetarian.
The wheat flour used in the pizza dough is not gluten-free.
The 'Specials' menu is both doughy & meaty. (Picture now attached).

If you are a vegan coeliac, this might not be the event for you.

Car drivers: please note there is no onstreet parking, (except for local residents) until 19.30.
There is a large shopping centre approx 500 metres north. Charges listed on Post 157.
Who's coming?
Who can remember someone they would like to invite along?

Who lives 'west' and has never got round to coming along?

Let's start with recent attendees;
@fasih @ffm @hamrack @hippy @Oliver Schick @Sifta

and we've got to invite the Boss; @Velocio

It is in my calendar :)

Only fitting that you should be the first response.

I have notifications enabled

Guess I should pop in for the 10th.

@31trum should attend. There's a warm Fosters shandy with his name on it... :P

Can you believe I was a the Red Lion on Sunday and didn't have a pizza?

I know, what's the world coming to?

You will be most welcome.
The invite extends to Mel.

I'd already invited her, if only to warn her to have a kebab ready when I return.. .

@T4NY4

Here's the Event you enquired about.

Will there be

arse darts
@maxc
people injured on the way home
bike hiding
lock in
special place grooming/kebabs
accusations of a forumenger getting a cage fighter's missus knocked up

@Ramsaye

Norths and the Thursday night riders will be very much welcome

Beer is better food.

Beer is better with two ts

ftfy

I had quite a lot of beer to make up for it.

If we get enough people,
I'm certain we can arrange a Games Room.
Will we have to find you accommodation for the night,
or,
can you sleep in the back of the Yeti?

And while we're at it:

@jdmitch
@Greasy_Slag
@clefty
@Dropout
@nimhbus
@Señor_Bear
@adrevporn
@owenreed
@fatoldbloke

More to be added.

Beer is better without two ts

Double fixed.

I don't want to wake up in the middle of the road again

Why not? Taking primary position is safer.

Oh, Owen, you've become so MOR. No, wait.

I'm down. will message @pigfarmer

Any chance on doing it another day besides Thanksgiving, for us 'Muricans? Otherwise would definitely come!

Snoring on the tarmac makes people giggle no?
