Following conversations with Arron & Pele, propose to hold a bluewater area meet next week. Been speaking to Hol & this will give him a well earned break and replace the Notcutts/F1 meet for the month.

Am making date Thurs 21st at 7:30pm, as no-one suggested alternatives!

Venue will be the Wharf pub, just up the road from Bluewater. See below for maps. Again, no-one suggested anything better!


Edit to update (twice)

Cheers Chris - it will be. Forgot to mention, should see the meetings debut of my exhaust. Which will be outshone if megastream comes with his new car! Opening a book on what mods AndT has done this month

Hades, all this organising is making my hair fall out. Either that or im not ducking quick enough when the wife throws cutlery at me

Victor, It would be nice if you could come, cos then I can say hello in person. Hows my old wheels doing stateside BTW?

AndT , I reckon he has gone for some gauges and possibly morrettes. Not much else left to do really

Hol, you trying to say something about women drivers?
I *might* even have stage 3 of 'Project Flamer'
in place, depending how long Mr. Postie takes to deliver it.

Ah - you've got ahead of me with the modding! Look forward to hearing whether the tek2 is a big improvement over the prodrive ECU. All being well, I should have new shiny up-pipe and ported headers, only a few hours old on the day too, which will leave me going for the tek next month. This is turning into a "mod-fest"

Americans welcome, silly or otherwise. The meet is definitely on. If we're lucky we'll even work out where!

Pele - none of us would dare say anything about women drivers in general. Specific women drivers might be a different matter . . .

Hol - are you saying you were hairy before you started organising things?

bluewater is fine for me. I work right next to the wharf pub too which as a reasonable carpark (unless 100 scoobs show up), alternatively where abouts would the options be for bluewater ??

what sort of time too (bout 7 is fine for me)

Hi Paul,

have you checked to see if The Wharf has Kareoke on Thursday?

The Wharf sounds like a better idea than BW itself because it should be easier to find everyone else.

And the decision is?



p.s where's the wharf?

New police memo, declares flamer kits illegal, as of the new year.

OK then, I'll say the wharf as a final decision. It's within about three minutes of bluewater, see:

here

and

here

It is on Galleon Boulevard - turn off the dual carriageway (Crossways boulevard}, go straight over the first roundabout, and it's on the right.

I'll be there about 7:30.

Sorry guys, can't make this one due to work.

Phil, sadly no mods this month, wallet has stayed firmly shut, normal service resumed when it's had a while to recover.

Hol, 'not much else left to do really', if only it were true m8!

Cheers.

Arron - how was the rally? Bet it was great when Subaru won, talk about being in the right place at the right time!
'Project Flamer' - right, this is NOT a flamer kit, I'm doing it the long way, MD stylee! It's taking a little bit longer than the cheating way, but sourcing a 2nd hand down pipe is taking a while!
Hades - Glad to see you've finally got a meeting place sorted, I thought it was only supposed to be women who were indesisive. LOL!

If anyone wants to meet up if they don't know where the WHARF is they can then follow me down.

Arron, hope the big deal went down OK!
Hol, good job on the face lift, can I have the name of the surgeon!
Hades, hope the directions for you put into your robots are better than the ones you gave us! LOL!
See you next time, hopefully with stages 3&4 of Project Flamer
