I was thinking what a good idea it would be if we had a meet then a bit of an evening social thing. Having spoke to Gridlock (the meet god) he sugested that we have our usual monthly meet on Staurday 15th.

I therefore suggest we do the following, as the last one was such a success;

12 - 1 Meet at Gunthorpe
2 - 3ish Drive to another pub
4 - 5 ish Back to my house for food and evening festivities (including beer/etc for those would can drop there cars off at home or dont mine leaving them at mine (nice area, next door has a TVR Tuscan))maybe go on to town.

Let me know what you think.

Steve

I would just like to emphasise my enthusiasm and joy at this prospect. I would like to reserve two places my good man 1 for me and 1 for my good lady.

If you require any assistance with the arranging,............. PI55 OFF only jesting my friend!

Who else is considering a tipple or two on the 15th?

This is the arranged trip up to Scotland, I am going on track at Knockhill (Hoping that htere is nothing to stop me this time - first time car was not suitable for track, second time a hospital appointment made sure that I arrived too late and third time I crash the car. Everything is crossed for this time!!! I MUST go on Knockhill, it is a fantastic circuit )

Not at all! I have the 14th, 15th and 16th dedicated for a trip to Scotland, would not turn that down for the world!!! Just as the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th are reserved for the infamous Tour D'Ecosse

I would love to go on a night out again in Nottingham, I have to admit The Works is worth a few re-visits!

Trouble is I am struggling with time off work again. And struggling not to lose my temper with my boss!!!

So I am sorted for food and drink then

I really must come across (was going to say down but I thought that would provoke too many comments ) to Nottingham for a wild night. Got a new frock too, very revealing

Sorry folks, but I'm heading for Scotland that weekend as well.

Only been to Scotland once as a kid, and I've heard so much about it, I'm eager to get up there for a look round before the Tour D'Ecosse in November.

Shame about the clash with the Scotland run. But for those staying down here, feel free to come along. The more the better(provided you come prepared with a bottle). Myself or Mikey will post the details of the meet nearer the time.

Houslow what are you and your good lady up to? No excuses with this amount of notice.

Cheers

Steve

Dunno when Kath is back from Japan

I should be able to make it, but you know how crap I am at making decisions

Don't think I have anything else planned in my superly busy diary so should be able to make it over.

I'll check with the missus to see when she is back.....you'd think I would know wouldn't you

Chris

As i understand it.. ... the plan is this

1. meet up
2. drink shandies and cokes
3. drive around til we get bored
4. drink more shandies and cokes
5. back to Student Blokes
6. drink... but not shandies and cokes .. apart from Salsa obviously.... cos he gets too excited after half a Pepsi . And i promised his mother that i wouldn't let him play out late

I think it really is that complex!

hope you can make it!, c ya there dood!

Trouser

( always first on.... and last off, ... the dance floor )

Unless anyone has an objection the plan is as outlined above by Trouser. The start will be in the usual place, Unicorn at Gunthorpe, between 12 and 2. Drive wherever the road takes us and eventually ending up at my house.

During this we will do some food either at a pub or if the weather isn't to bad (NOTE: always rains on Notts meets) a barbeque back at mine. For those who want to 'get on it' we can go to mine via your house to drop cars off etc, or for those of you I already know bring a sleeping bag.(parking at mine is pretty safe)

Depending on the general feeling of the group we can either polish the night off with what ever tipple you fancy at my house or arrange a place to meet later in town.

See you all there

Steve

Speed wise mate, i am proud to say that in genaral us notts lot are sensible to the point of fogeydom

Don't get me wrong... we all have a little squirt (oo-er) where conditions allow, but thankfully we don't have any "heroes".. and none of us seem to have anything to prove

30mphs are adhered to with giffer-tastic precision. Come along, you won't feel pushed!


CW... No comment! (on a public BBS) ring any time mate, would be happy to let our lads sort it for you
