We both had a great time meeting up, Diddly Squat Farm could quite possibly be a location where more of us could meet up.
Just caught up after two days on the ferry to Bilbao 😎
7 hours in Carbon buckets to Portugal was a breeze 👌

If the farm is a little busy/tricky, what about the British motor museum?

British Motor Museum is one option. I have used it as a journey break /coffee stop when traveling between Chichester and the North West

I wondered about Bicester heritage but not familiar personally to know whether it would work. Is there any public cafe facility near main car park? We would also have to choose date carefully not to clash with any event. Otherwise, the advantage is what PCGB nearly relocated to it, i.e. near UK centre, After investigation I cannot see any public refreshment facility.

Caffeine and the Machine now is so popular it has complicated rules and booking since I discovered it by accident pre Covid on a trip to Stratford.

Podium Cafe in Newbury is probable too far south for the second event but could be a runner later
