Suffolk Shrimper In Dorset
Director⭐⭐🦐
Dear All
A little early given still have Sheffield to come but not that far away so I'll start this one which is a bit of an event for me as I will be completing my 92 at Bloomfield Road.
There are 14 of us going up for a weekender for this one Fri to Sun, only 3 are Shrimpers the rest attracted by a middle aged lads beer session or two. We have a schedule of things to do drawn up (mostly pubs and restaurants), if anyone is feeling a bit at a loss up there and wants to tag along for any of it just send me a PM and I can send you details. If you see some unfit blokes on the beach Sat morn attempting to kick a ball that is probably us, that being our one concession to exercise.
Pre match on the Saturday we intend to be at The Old Bridge House, Lytham Road from around 11.30 ish then from 1 pm most of us will be vacating to the ground to use their restaurant (which incidentally is not bad value at £35 including match ticket in away end and food when just match ticket is £25).
Hope by the time we get to Sat the match is not too much of a meaningless mid table thing for us.
Re the 92 I will be publishing a book on it in May which of course has a heavy Shrimper theme - it is drafted and just awaiting the final chapter. I will be shamelessly promoting that when it's ready.
Cheers and UTB
