Can vouch for the Pubs cred.

Been in there for lunch today as I was seeing a customer in Sutton-in-Ashfield.

Good Sunday meet material.

Anyone care to organise? pass the buck.

Gunthorpe would make a top mid-week meet.

The bikers already use it in summer, I'm sure we could fill the riverside carpark with Scoobs.

OK then, there we have it, top venue, plenty ov people vouching for it, ideal as a weekday or weekend meet, pubs that overlook the carparks and river, on a nice day the place is teeeeeeeeming with pretty women and blokes having a testosterone moment, carpark full ov quality machinery (2 + 4 wheels),cool for families.

I don't know what goes into organising one of these meets, but on the basis that it can't be that hard to do, i'll give it a go.

So, i'm thinking Saturday the 21st or 28th April.

Let me know what date is best, the majority vote will carry

If you require more info, post it here and/or e-mail me at imprezachap@aol.com

C'mon, let's get it on in cool stylie

Mike,

Me and the missus should be able to make it down there now that we know where it is after some excellent directions .

28th is better for us as it's just after (small ) pay day.

Wicked

So, sofar the facts are:

28th April is the date

I suggest that it is a daytime meet as it allows people to do other stuff in the evening (With the Scoobs safely tucked away for the night ) open to reasons why an evening meet could be better though

Sofar 9 people have got thier names down, they are (in no particular order )

Me
Hanslow
Logiclee
DC911
Richard Askew
Walker
Walkers Wife( )
Akira
Salsa-King

The car park will hold about 60 vehicles in the front car park, and about 200 in the rear so don't be shy. It cost's £1 to park in the front car park but you get £1 off of your first drink if you produce the ticket at the bar

Sixteen days to go then! Start spreading da newz cos I reckon this could be a brilliant occasion, oh yes!

Keep posting ya questions, seeya soon

I'll be there, after all I made it last time!!!
Just to stop any confusion the pub Mike is discussing is the Unicorn (there are 2 others).
Maybe if people give it the thumbs up we could make it a monthly meet at the end of each month? Just an idea anyway.

RBN,

If the weather is nice, expect to find people there from midday until about 8. It all depends on what other things people have got on, where they are coming from, if they have kids etc.
It is impossible to accomodate everyone so it's kinda up to the individual to fit around the meet plan as best they can. If you can't make it, then i'm sure that there will be plenty of other meets

So there you have it everyone, A venue, a date, a timeframe, lets be having you

as always, any questions, let me know sooner rather than later.
CYA

reasons 4 an evening meet......

1. more sports cars (other than scooby's)
2. more bikes
3. more atmosphere
4. more TOTTIE!!!!!!!!

glad i checked by
i only live up the road so it is easy for me to make it to Gunthorpe meets.

just looked at the fixture list and it seems that Forest have their last home game of the season on the 28th ( vs Gillingham ) so i won't be there until 17:30 soonest
i'll still nip along anyway esp if the sun is shining.
