| hi as a widnes fan coming down on sat and staying overnight have you guys got any idea of the best places to stay fort he game and also where to go for a pint and a good night after will be staying over . when we used to come down and watch you play at brentford we used to stay off hanger lane and go into ealing . lookinf for something that a bit of fun like 70s/80s bars and with people who can have a laugh and a joke . also any good pre match bars wwe can mix in with you guys and have a laugh and a joke . we are looking to be getting the train down so any ideas on the connecting tubes will also be a welcome addition . always enjoyed the chats with the london fans since you are all very passonite about the sport see you sat big hoss

| London's a fairly quiet town.
Your best bet might be somewhere like Staines or Slough

simpsons/017.jpg Welcome Quins Kitties born 02.04.09 -
Purdo - Determined, loveable with a "can-do" attitude. A born leader.
Louie - Big, white and fluffy. A very noisy prop forward.
Harley- Cute and gorgeous (just like our no.9) Well, I couldn't call her Chad, could I?
Update on Quins Mogs :-
Purdo - deffo leader amongst Mogs. The Capo.
Louie - turned out to be more like Louie Spence than LMS. Re-named Judas.
Harley - Cute but not as gorgeous as our no.9.
Oh well, at least I haven't got a Willy.:simpsons/017.jpg |

| Hi hoss...you will struggle getting any decent response from anyone on here as everyone has lost patience, plot and sense of humour, sadly.
I can't help you with where to stay etc but hopefully someone will come up with a suggestion or two.
There are loads of pubs in Twickers but they are all a bit tame I'm afraid. However, most Broncos fans seem to go to The William Webb Ellis (wetherspoons pub) before the game (come out of Twickers stn and turn left- cant miss it) and afterwards, we usually have music in The Kings Bar (under the East Stand) which is a hit with away fans.
Hope you have a good time in London. I was at your ground for our match and thought it was great and the people were really nice (especially great to meet Reg Bowden). BTW, you lot are struggling but I wish we had your problems!

We're not all Southern Softies: |
|
| Why not try staying at "Travelodge" at Twickenham.
It has just opened up in the past couple of months & has loads of rooms as it used to be a large office block. (About 10 floors or more.)
Couldn't be easier to find : Come out of Twickenham Railway Station, turn left & walk no more than 50 yards & it's there on your left. Perfect location for pubs for pre-match drinkee's & close to the Stoop.
After the game, enjoy the post match entertainment in the bar under the East Stand, then go back to Twickenham Station & take a train into Waterloo. There are at least 6 trains an hour & it will take you between 20 to 30 minutes depending on which service you get.(Get youself a one day travel card "All Zones" costs £8.50p) this will do you for main line trains, tubes & buses.
From Waterloo, you are only 5 minutes from the West End & providing your money lasts out you'll find plenty of places to go.
Coming home, your last trains back are 00:18 or 01:42 from Waterloo.
Hope this helps.

| Catford is only a short taxi ride from the ground and is an excellent up and coming area.

| Gutters. Distance seems to have affected your memory.
The Bear & Ragged Staff is in that other celubrious town that sounds similar to Catford. (CRAYFORD!)

| Ealing is still a decent night out at the weekend, could try Hammersmith or Richmond, pre match there are a couple of decent pubs in Twickers.
The bar at the club usually has a decent atmosphere too.
