[QUOTE=Planemike;11093131]No, maybe not but you like me are not a "local".... I am sure there are "locals" who will drop by to use the café, meet friends etc. Also mention was made of cycling/motor cycling clubs who arrange to meet there. The idea just seems poorly thought through.[/QUOTE

I am a local and we used to meet at OW with son in law, wife and granddaughter. An hour on the playground for the granddaughter, a mooch in the shop (which always ended up buying something!) and 5 breakfasts in the cafe….all in out that’s about £40-45 a trip. As a family, I don’t think we are unique as a family, lots of local families with children used the playground and probably bought food, drinks and food from the cafe.

My brother in law is a member of motor cycling club in Luton and him and his mates used to visit on a regular basis…..now more.

“Poorly thought through” is a polite way of putting it. OW will not be getting anymore of my money in the future.
