[Alex]

I was talking more about the association with Friday the 13th, and all things creepy, spooky and michievious…..

[Giles]

Whoops, sorry…...

[Chris]

Wow Giles, sounds like a great party! We are coming to the UK this summer (from Japan), but in August unfortunately.  However we are planning to pop down to Gosport to say hello to the gang. The 10% discount is tempting, too! If I were coming to the party I would suggest a swift half in the Anglesey before the BBQ! My sister was a barmaid in the Green Dragon at Rowner one summer in the 1970s, I wonder if that pub is still there. Anyway, I'm sure a splendid time is guaranteed for all! Cheers!

[Giles]

Green Dragon is still the place to go for a good fight….

Hmm, this sounds fun, and I can fly directly to London without too bad of a trip over via bus. Perhaps this is something I'll need to attend.

[TSG]

OK G, let's go to the Village Home in Alverstoke instead!

[Giles]

That's @Steve 's local.  I just go to the brewery and sit amongst the beer making stuff and drink good beer….

Yes, it is…..

Seconded.

@Giles @TSG  > can't beat the Village Home, a good old fashioned pub, lots of wood (on the walls, floors and ceilings!) beer, pool table, beer, pork scratchings, beer and NO food served!

Spring Gardens guesthouse and apartments is nearby but I suspect that maybe full by now. There is also a Premier Inn a solid walk or short bus ride away. Otherwise you can try AirBnb.

I've also stayed across the water in Portsmouth. There are guesthouses and B+B's very close to the ferry. The journey time on the ferry is only 3min and then it's a 10min walk to IHHQ so it's really quite a good solution. The only downside I experienced is that if you're needing to get back over the water after midnight then the night ferry is a little less regular and there may be a wait.
