The pub is easy to find. Come off junction one(that's when you're coming from the west - not from central London)(it's the first junction slip road after joining the M40 off the M25) of the M40 keep in the right hand lane of the slip road turning right at the lights at the bottom. Going underneath the motorway make sure that you do not go onto the lane going back west onto the M40! Take the Slough turning which is right at the first roundabout. You will drive down a dual carriageway which then goes into a single lane road about a quarter of a mile later. Keep on going for about a mile going over a small roundabout (you can take a left into Iver here, but then you would be going nowhere near the pub!) You will be in a 30mph area here with a British Legion Club and a church on the l/h side of the road. The next BIG roundabout is where the pub is. You should see the pub accross the roundabout. This roundabout is also the main access to Pinewood Film Studios (if you pass the Pinewood sign you have missed the Pub!). I hope that the directions are clear enough!

There are now new speed restrictions on the roads approaching the Crooked Billet and the surrounding area.
I believe there is a camera on the 30 mph bit too(?)
Would like to come, as it's just up the road from me, but feel I might be out of my depth on the mods and things....
Jeff

Don't worry about mods and things - you'd be very welcome, we don't just talk about modifications! Hope to see you next week!

Don't be - the only mods I've done to my car is to remove 2 cupholders and put VOC numberplates on!
