Pretty new to this, one week into Scooby ownership.

probably hants(Eastliegh), but there is normally a Surrey meet which isnt too far up the M3 and occassional Newbury/Reading type area meets. Im sure youd be welcome at all, Ive certainly been to them all and Im in winchester

Get yourself over to the Surrey Meet. 2nd Sunday of the month, meeting at Newlands Corner, then off to a pub in Cobham. Nice afternoon out, good turn out, too, so should be worth the drive.

Don't forget Bolney this Saturday. Now that's gonna be BIG.

...I'm worried now

Burley's near Ringwood in the New Forest, bit further than normal (for everyone else, not me though ) but it's a joint meet with the Dorset guys The address of the pub and a map (not helpful if you don't know where Burley is though!) is in the event section of the hantsscoobies website

What we usually do is meet up at the Sir John Barleycorn pub off J1 of the M27 and then drive in convoy down to the pub in Burley(because no-one really knows where it is ) Obviously, that assumes you know where the John Barleycorn is...

gary

I've got a silver 'S' plate UK scoob with a prodrive spoiler, ie this one :



It wasn't me at the chestnut last night mate, my scoob has been in my garage for the last two weeks with a poorly clutch - I daren't drive it unless necessary at the moment. Anyway it's going up to TSL next tuesday for a new AP one to be fitted - so you should see & hear me bombing around town shortly afterwards

I'll keep an eye out for you, flash and a wave too no doubt
If you fancy going to a meet sometime, we could drive down together - theres one in eastliegh for the hants scoobies crew on every second monday of the month, i've been once but to a different pub.

cheers
chtis

Silly question and if it aint you you wont know what the hell im on about but ' does Jonah service your scooby?'

I ask that coz there is one the same as yours in town. Well a WRX in the same colour which a friend of mine services for him.

Oh and excuse my ignorance about the models of the older style, i'm not up to speed with it all yet. But one thing thing i will say is nice car mate, she is a beauty.

Friend of mine has an 'S' reg in Ludgershall in reddish blue which is nice as well.

Yeah the meet thing sounds good to me and I look forward to seeing ya on the roads

I thought I recognised the houses Chris.

The new Army ones in perham. I have a couple of friends who live just down the road from there. I grew up in Tidworth so just down the road.
I live in Andover off Weyhill road.

Me mates only comes out every now and then and his girlfriend drives a P1. That is very nice too.

Hopefully I will see you on the roads sometime soon
