Spotted - Andover, this evening (25 may)

A blue Falco with what looked like Blue Flame triangliar cans rumbled past the Yew Tree pub with a few bikes (including mine) parked out the front this evening.

You went towards town, obviously realised the error of your ways, turned around and roared off back towards the A303 (wise decision, nothing good ever comes of going into Andover).

Twas me.

I did think about stopping but had only popped out for a quick blast to town and back to check something on the bike.

Do you go to their bike meet often?

Don't normally get to meets due to shift work. I got fed up with sitting at home so decided to go out as it was a bank holiday, initially to the Lysley Arms near Chippenham, which was deserted as I was too early, so I took a long route back through Devises, Shrewton, Durrington, Bulford, Tidworth, Weyhill and stopping off at the Yew Tree to see if the two bikers from work were there as they usually go to it. They weren't.

nice block to go round :smt003
Where's this Yew Tree then? Is it another re-named pub like the Y Knot/Why Not/Chestnut Tree?
only Yew Tree I know is Marco-Pierre White's these days

On the right hand side as you follow the Weyhill road into Andover, just after the East Protway Industrial estate roundabout

And it's called the Chestnut Tree
