Dudes, I just thought that i'd change the title from the last thread, as it's not really that obvious that there's a decent sized meet starting to brew

So who's going

Me
Hanslow
Logiclee
DC911
Richard Askew
Walker
Walkers Wife
Akira
Salsa-King
Student Bloke
RBN
Charlie Whiskey
Black Adder

Still don't know whether to do daytime or evening meet, I feel an alldayer coming on, just so that people can turn up whenever it is convienient for them, However, 2 or 3 scoobs in the car park at any one time, hardly costitutes a meet does it

Sussed it, Daytime meet 13:00hrs and cos we're all big lads now, i'm sure we can decide how long we want to stay for

There you have it then,

Date: 28th April
Venue: The Unicorn, Gunthorpe Bridge, Nottingham
Time : 13:00hrs onwards

With regards to the timing, i.e Northern meet 5 etc, having had a look at various calenders, there is something on every weekend between now and October!!! so i really can't see the point in moving anything.

Right then, lets get on with it and get ya names down

I'll be there Mike.

However we will not be able to do the unicorn as I have just been there tonight and discovered it is shut. The unicorn is closed till June? What a daft time to close for refurbishment.

Anyway given there are other pubs in Gunthorpe not all is lost. I suggest we meet in the Anchor(50 yards round the corner).

Cheers
Steve

I'll be there again....this time on the day that it has been arranged for

I thought it was wierd that I was the only one there on the 21st Some people just have Muppetdom in their blood

At least I know where it is now, and the Unicorn is definitely closed until June.

Mikey,

Going to the coast for a long weekend, wont be able to make this one.

We'll have to make it a regular meet though as Gunthorpe's a top venue.

Sorry mate, but i too have to give you a pathetic excuse for not attending the meet. Was looking forward to it, but due to having the flu and being laid up in bed for a couple of days everything that i should have done through the week is now having to be done at the weekend

Alternativley, if any of you lot fancy popping round to my house tonight and helping me level the garden, lay about 200 paving slabs, excavate two ponds and a stream, erect some decking and finish off laying the turf i`ll be able to come

Sorry guys

Paul

The Unicorn is closed at the moment for refurbishment, or at least appears to be. Shouldn't be a problem though, the Anchor is a stones throw away, and you can still use the car park in front of the Unicorn.
