All of a sudden we have an outbreak of Scoobies around here :), so was discussing this with ChrisP the other night, so how about a evening meet?

Pub with a decent size car park so we can have our own corner, drinkies and maybe a snack if you are hungry.

How about one night 2nd week of July somewhere in the Stoke area? I say Stoke as a rough guide, but 15 miles from here covers Congleton, Leek, Crewe, Stafford etc so plenty of locations.

STiSteve 23 June 2002 03:45 PM

Chris,
Sounds like a great idea, we are from Staffs, but only just. The wilderness of Cannock :D, can we come please.
Steve :cool:

Jonto 23 June 2002 04:55 PM

Yup - will defoe be up for that.

Leek could be good as there are some good roads up there to.

Oh and it's near me too ! ;)

trebor 25 June 2002 07:19 PM

Yep we need a good location that easy to get to from the north and south. I have a couple in mind and one allows kids/wackyware house jobby last time I was in, if anyone is bringing kids. If anyone has a good pub in mind then shout :D.

Criteria :

1) Must be easy to find so people dont get lost ;)
2) Big car park is a must really
3) Serve meals/snack (no so important but nice)
4) Must be petrolhead tolerant :D
5) Kids friendly so people can drag the missus and sprogs out

Might try and get this a regular thing depending on how popular they are.

Someone is bound ask what happens on a meet. Its just a get together to chat about life, the world and scoobs :D. Any other marques are welcome, skylines, evos, lambos, ferrari, fiestas ;), we'll just play it by ear for the first one and see how it goes.

Hopefully try and get something sorted in next couple of weeks.

Just to add maybe good to move it around the region each time to allow people long and short distances to travel just to be fair to everyone.


Cheers

ChrisP

Little Miss WRX 26 June 2002 12:26 PM

I think the pub next to me should be used ;)

Seriously though, I am up for this :D

ChrisB 26 June 2002 01:20 PM

Let's see Little Miss ;)

1) Perhaps not if you haven't been there before :(
2) Definately not :(
3) On the right nite :)
4) They put with the locals, so we will be ok :)

Hopefully going to get Insbro along with his Evo as well (very nice motor :) )

At the moment my number one is the Darlaston Inn on the A34 between Trentham and Stone (the one in centre of the roundabout). It has a wacky warehouse for the kids, serves meals and has a big car park. Really easy to find and in between Junctions 15 and 16 of the M6.

Dont know what other people think ?

ChrisB 26 June 2002 04:40 PM

Good starting point for the 1st meet. Fairly central for everyone I reckon.

I'll suggest a date - Wednesday 10th July. How's that sound?

DodgeT 26 June 2002 05:20 PM

Sounds good! (place & time)

If you click the map it shows the circle just below the big roundabout. The map isnt quite right the pub is actually in the centre of the roundabout and access is off the roundabout BUT only when going North ie. from Stone towards Trentham. The only downside is the A34 is plagued with speed cameras in both directions so becareful guys.

Little Miss WRX 26 June 2002 07:43 PM

Will let you know if I can attend, I still have no transport so I may have to bow out of this one. It all depends on whether I am back at work too.

STiSteve 26 June 2002 08:35 PM

sounds good to us :D, it's not too far from Cannock, both me and Jill will be up for it, the only problem is my daughter wants to come, not for the Wacky Warehouse, but to bring her Mini Cooper :eek: (classic not BMW).

cheers Steve :cool:

DodgeT 26 June 2002 08:50 PM

ChrisB 26 June 2002 09:02 PM

Pie_n_Chips 27 June 2002 09:17 AM

robman 27 June 2002 10:51 AM

Actually looks like I might be able to make that. I could also bring along the Bit Char-g cars too :-)

ChrisB 27 June 2002 12:06 PM

Ooo, I dunno Mr Chips ;) If you don't cause any trouble we might consider it :D

Pie_n_Chips 27 June 2002 12:10 PM

Pie_n_Chips 27 June 2002 01:46 PM
