We used to stop off after the Venue back in the day for an Animal Burger, which was basically a full English breakfast with burger in a bun with pineapple ring as well, happy days!!
I hope the lady and anyone else hurt are ok, great memories of the place growing up.
I took my wife there for an alfresco meal on our 19th wedding anniversary! When we arrived my wife thought I was mucking about and laughing told the lady serving what was going on, she called a fella sitting at the table and they moved a table away from the road and we ate our meal alone in the middle of the heath. She also gave us the meal for free, but I tipped her £20 as didn’t want to be considered a tightarse.
You would’ve seen it AFKA. Unless you drive past blindfolded!
i don’t agree with the fund raising pages being set up to raise money for the owners. This may sound bad but they can hardly be skint and surely the insurance will cover it.

I’d have thought they would have insurance but perhaps given the nature of the location and the fact it was destroyed in a similar way a number of years ago, perhaps there are limitations to what it covers.
When the little cafe in Charlton Park was seriously vandalised early last year, it turned out that the insurance didn’t cover the building due to the perceived flimsy wooden construction of it - hence the crowdfunding there to help get them up and running again.
Whatever the circumstances, I wish them well and those injured a full recovery.

Can't see how a motor can be going that fast around that area at that time of the day, to cause so much damage. Even though it is on a junction
Well, you would have until last night.
