I can't believe how many people were there!!! And how a 11 year old Golf beat 20 Subaru's from Guildford to Pease Pottage!!

Had a great time and thanks for making a Golf driver so welcome!!

Cheers
Andy

Just to add my word of thanks:

Dr Evil - Organising a weekend that contaned laughs, driving, eating, drinking, driving (after sleep and waiting for levels to fall again)
Dyney - For the Sussex meet, nice weather you laid on for us as well!
Trouser - Just for turning up in your car and the tasteful shirt!
Salsa-King - For the stickers and floor show in the club!
Jail-bait... sorry I mean Chuckster - Proving that not all the colours known should actually be put on one shirt.
Gridlock-Mikey - Ah... the morning after stories made my breakfast!
Squeaker - The best damn shot with chocolates and aeroplane fabricator!
Andy Tang - For having a car that is sooo much slower than mine!
...finally of course... Robert and his cage dancing troupe! So much fun watching that in the bar on the monitors!

For everyone else who I met said hello to and slurred at... sorry I missed your names off but I did enjoy meeting you!

Fulham71, glad you could make it. Hope its persuaded you that things are fine and that nobody holds a grudge. Well done for having the guts to turn up. Hope to see you again at a future meet so you can tell me whats happened to Jon Harley at Fulham. Yeah I'm a Chelsea fan so I'll expect some friendly banter!

Excellent turn-out despite the weather and, as already said, I expect half of Crawley wondered where all those scoobs came from.

Thanks go to everyone who turned up and made it the biggest Sussex meet yet!

Glad someone found my maps handy. Hopefully nobody got lost?

Mark

Chris P1,
The guy with the maps was me unless I had a big Subaru jacket on in which case it was 555Marcus (the guy that printed them off for us)

Big thanks to everyone for coming and making it the biggest Sussex meet ever. I managed to count 38 Scoobs a Golf and a Range Rover(I love the trick you do with the curbs(Drive over them without worrying about your wheels)

Anyone count more as I sort of got there late and didn't get an official count?

Thanks to Dr.Evil for a great weekend,555Marcus for the maps, Velryba, Trouser and Chuck for being themselves and Salsa for the Stickers and the dance display with Karina at the bar

And big thanks to Andy & Caroline and Caroline's my for somewhere to sleep

Last cheers to Col for standing by the biggest puddle videoing the drive by. I have got to borrow that video

I now I've left loads out but I could go on forever!!!!!
See you all soon I hope,
Iain.

PS. I'll order better weather for the next meet

Wow what a fun day!
Sorry I had to go but was a hour late for dads birthday meal never mind only one dad but 38 scoobs
Hope I got all the cars on my tape of automotive ****
Have only watched it 10 times! I've got every car parked in the pub so can 'officialy' claim it was 38 scoobs 1 GTI + the range rover support vehicle
Cheers Ian what a cool meet, just book some sun next time.

Cheers Tony for the 97 Wrx brochure

Cheers to the cars in the lay-by for not running me over and for booting it past nothing like a woosh & dump through the sterio

Yeah, loads of P1's plus I think 3 22B's which aint bad since there are only 16 in the country.

Was great fun, but bit wet for my liking, I ain't no duck.

Bet we're all glad the scoob has AWD though!

assume you forgot a smilie there Phil which is most unlike you, but then maybe it's cos I got loads of them from you on sunday

if no smiley was intended then suffice to say the following equation would be observed:

Markus + lager + food + club = mayhem, chaos, hilarity, bad dancing, embarresment (for me and those with me)

or it could be written:

Markus = Robet & Cage * 5000

It was very wet but there was a great turnout including several P1s & a 22b (id never seen a 22b before & it was awesome)
Im sure the Crawley area didnt know what hit it with so many Scoobies flying around the area in such bad conditions

Im sorry i couldnt make the pub due to prior arrangements but id like to make it to the next meet

Cheers guys Friday was a crap day for me personally but i enjoyed today

my Amanda said whilst driving round Guildford getting lost this afternoon...'don't they look boreing?'
i said..... 'wot do ????'

i think she's learning well!!

the other Nottm possee left the pub to go to Brighton...i headed back home before it got too dark. home at 6:10pm good time home i thought!

for the record.....i had about 50 smilie stickers with me today and 6 ScoobySmilesNet stickers too...... all got sold!!! TNX

Fulham,
glad you decided to come down mate, was good to meet you (pun intended)

Good to see all of you lot again.

I wish to declare I'm a prat though, as I can't remember the name of the gent that gave me the wheelnuts, sorry! I'll put it down to jetlag!

I have pics, which i'm in the process of putting up, so will post URL when they are up.

oh, and the new wheels are now on! YAY!!!!!

Thanks to Iain & Alex for sorting this out, pity I did not come on saturday as it looks like it was fun, gotta get me one of them cages! Thanks to Fulham for coming along. Thanks to 'da salsa-king' for the stickers, which now adorn my car.

Pity is was so wet!

Oh, and the 'cruise' was very funny, muppet's ahoy!

see you all again soon (hopefully with new brakes!)
