The White House pub on the A58 between Littleborough and Ripponden - high up on the top of the Pennines. It's a great road up to the pub from either direction if you've got a fast car [img]images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

We'll be there from around 7pm, and everybody is welcome.

It's dead convenient for anyone living in or around Mid Lancs/North Cheshire/Yorkshire/Humberside, as it is about 10 minutes (well, maybe 15 [img]images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]) from the M62.

If you need directions, please ask. If you have Sat Nav, the address of the pub is in one of my earlier posts entitled "Northern Pub Meet" (or somesuch) - just search for "White House".

It was good to meet Chris and ogle his RS4 last time - hope more of you can make it this time (Jon, this means you [img]images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img])

I was in the back of Phil's car going there for the May meet - thought I was going to toss my cookies [img]images/graemlins/jump3.gif[/img]

Anyway, my car has almost as much torque as yours doesn't it Paul, so it does pull pretty quick up dem hills - just runs out of puff at 4500rpm instead of 6500 [img]images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

You mean you're running almost 375lb/ft torque? [img]images/graemlins/elefant.gif[/img]

Has your car been chipped Paul ? I thought S4's had 290 as standard.

273lbft or 370Nm in new money - all the way from 1900 to 3800 rpm.

And I thought your car wasn't chipped either, which is why I made the remark Paul [img]images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

ride that wave of torque [img]images/graemlins/<beep>_you.gif[/img]

I was actually thinking of coming to the Northern meet this month (even though it's 191 miles by my Sat Nav [img]images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]) but I'm in France that week.
I fancy a blast round the hills as well [img]images/graemlins/thumbs.gif[/img]

It'd be nice to meet you, but you must be completely barking to want to drive nearly 200 miles for some grub [img]images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

The mixed-grill isn't that great - I just hype it up for newbies [img]images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Trev gets scared at the slightest smell of speed, I can confirm that. [img]images/graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]

Unfortunately, I won't be able to make this one either.... I'll be in Vegas working.

Hmmm, Vegas,... working... I don't think the two really go together when you're a visitor there [img]images/graemlins/033102bigblink_1_prv.gif[/img]
