    Barred From The Stretton Fox Lol.

    Errrrmmmmmm, you all know how freindly and nice us Volvo lot are etc...
    Well we had a lovely meet this afternoon, around 15 cars or so etc... , good chit chat etc, and somehow we managed to get ourselves barred for life lol.
    I'm sure others will explain as the post progresses but 2\10 to Mrs Mopp for diplomatic skills lol . Wasn't he an arse the landlord or whoever he was lol. Any way glad to meet anyone i hadn't met before, and another Big Up to Spesh, Judge and Dave who again toiled to assist another member with a poorly T5. Well Done!!

    See u next week.

    Just, got back in the house. I agree, a good time had by all and useful to put some faces to the names. As for the location....well after the attitude of a certain member of staff, they won't ever be receiving my custom again and I've a good mind to compain about the food delay as well..(2nd person to order and last to receive my meal)

    Good to put some more faces to names and nice to meet old friends! Sorry I had to dash, post op wife was in a bit of bother Even more sorry I didnt get to pinch your keys MM, but there will be a next time! Kept going in to the pub for another drink but then got sidetracked everytime! Cheers for the drive Dave, thats a beautiful car and the cornering abillity, OMG. I only drive like a herbert when the passenger is the car's owner Shame the boys in blue turned up on the hunt for number plate irregularities, but it sounded like they were quite cool about it! Also sounds like I left just before the fireworks and thats just not like me at all! What happened?

    Cheers folks and see you all soon,

    Er.....nobody did nothing, the landlord was just up his own ass.Everybody behaved themselves food was purchased along with drinks, and then he started to complain that we'd been there long enough!. Said we where taking business away from him by hogging his carpark.

    Still it was nice to see everybody again, made some new friends. Thanks for remembering your offer Mrs M, shame the old plod put a stop to our fun.

    Incidentely, should anybody wish to complain about the attitude of the landlord, the pub is part of the 'Vintage Inns' chain which is owned by Mitchells & Butler whose head office can be found at

    I've just seen it on teletext that 2 men were arrested in Stretton tonight for impersonating Volvo Mechanics. Has anyone heard from Dave or Spesh since 5.30pm ? Whip round needed to bail em out me thinks.

    Thanks for a very enjoyable afternoon guys, it was good to put faces to names. What happened with the landlord? Sounds like a total arse to me.

    Excellent meet guys! Great to meet all of you I hadn't already met and good to see the old faces again!

    I will be writing a letter of complaint to the brewery and will post the letter up for everyone to see before I post it!! Rude little man!

    Big up to Frazer who travelled by far the furthest for an afternoon with a bunch of Volvo nutters!!

    Andi - make sure you bring your Mrs (sorry I dont think you told me her name) to the next meet so we can discuss Richard Hamond further LOL
