just like to say that (even tho i wasnt there...bloody work) the midlands meet is getting bigger and better and seems to be becoming a very worthy day out, give yourselves all a pat on the back for getting involved.....this is what is so special about scooby ownership.

Ad is the pub in Derbyshire the one on the A619/A623??? There is one along there with a massive amount of parking space. Stopped there on a glorious sunny day with Sam for lunch last year on the way back from Grade A - cant remember the name though! Food was ok and nice gardens to the rear.

perhaps that'd do for Steve's Notts/Derby meet - a little (or not so little)convoy from a central meeting place up there via some entertaining back routes???

hey Si you gonna change your name then?

scooby-si.........no



rx7-si...............no

mazda-si..........no

jap-si yeah!!!!


lol sorry chap couldn't help myself!





talking of bigger & better!








It seems that we have outgrown the eaton farm pub after a year of great meets it is time to move on to a bigger venue!
We will still be using the eaton farm for a meeting point but then moving out in convoys to our newly arranged venue!!!!

It’s seem to us all that at most meets the scoob community seems to blend in with other customers at the pub, This is ok but I’m trying to sort out something a bit special just for us!




So we have managed to find our very own function room in a pub purely for our enjoyment!!
They only do a cavery on Sundays which is fantastic so if you want to eat either phone the pub direct (preferred) or just confirm if you want to eat when you put you name down. The pub has a huge car park and has a very long straight road opposite for you to calmly drive down to get to the meet!! Nudge nudge wink wink, The country roads on the rest of the way are great. The convoy from longeaton will last for approx 25miles so fill your tank if you have a heavy right foot (wanted!)

So the plan of action

We will meet at the Eaton farm pub at 12 o’clock.
13:00ish we will head out to the new venue convoy style!
Yes steve 777 you can lead a convoy!!!!!!(oh and me and marv!)
The convoys or convoy will then stop twice on the way to pick up more scoobs from other meeting points pre arranged if needed, these you can arrange amongst yourselves and we will sort the finer details out closer to the time.


We were going to time groups and the first & last to arrive will win prizes but this could get a bit messy so we might scrap that idea what do you reckon?


So meeting point 1=

12:30 @ Eaton farm pub
Wilsthorpe road
Long eaton
Notts

And then a nice big convoy approx 25 miles! all the way to the once secret location…………….



The main meeting point:

14:00 @THE FAMOUS RED LION
Darley Road
Stone edge (not Stonehenge!)
Chesterfield
S45 0lw
Tel 01246 566142 ( get your food order in asap!)

This should be a great meet with convoys+prizes and the usual scoob banter!
It would be great to get over 50 cars we nearly did 50 at the last meet so we should beat the 50 barrier quite easily!!!

So come on then folks if you fancy a great day out with some good food then get your names down!!!!


Looking forward to seeing you there

Special x & little miss STI

nice 1 Ad,

might be a problem for me reaching Eaton Farm for 1pm (with me playing footy until 12:30 and getting showered after). so i'll need to know the route beforehand and intercept the convoy.
