Some areas have active and regular meets - check the section out on here, the Midlands had one a few weeks back - check out members' gallery. I have met up with 1 or 2 people on here, usually when buying stuff, but that's about it.

Far too many to name! Mostly it's those regulars at the West and East Sussex meets, the Scoobysnacks meet, and the Surrey meet. The main reason being that I used to attend all those meets and there was a core of people who'd do the same. Great people too Had some fantastic times with them as well (meets, bbq's, bday parties), and would consider them friends, not just "people I've met" as Arnold Judas Rimmer would put it Whether they would say the same about me... hehehe.

I've met nearly all the muppet Show regulars more than once. A fair few of the WYIOCs as well.

Loads. Even related to one of them...

Most met via Muppet meets, and the rest via local car gatherings.

I even know that fishy Ray Li character - he's as mad as a March hare.

I think a more pertinent question is "why would you want to meet them?".

Because a lot of them are funny, intriguing and personable, both online and in the flesh.

If I had gone out of my way to offend and annoy people I might be worried about potential repercussions too!

Talk about "damning with faint praise" or it's antithesis.


Either way I'd be gratified to think that if I were ever to meet you people "in the flesh" you would in some way feel offended or annoyed prior to that meeting. It means the entire project is a success.

I worded it very carefully, such that no assumptions of success could be made, the point being that you always err on the side of "success", hence you would be worried. See?

No I don't. You are being far too insular in your thinking, but you are coming along nicely, bravo alexi.

Any relation? (Minus the alphabetical order, I guess).

Because it's interesting to see if they are like their online persona, plus, most of the meets I went to were social occasions, so we chatted about anything and everything, not just the usual subaru type stuff, though that did come up from time to time.

MattW and Bob Rawle both live near me, as does Iain Young (though I've never met Iain). Iain M and Clive the Brave are also mates, and TAFF-RA is my cousin.

I've met a few others but couldn't say I know them well.
