Welcome to Scoobynet and enjoy your Scoob. What Scoob do you have?

Beware of Muppets on this BBS - you may see warnings elsewhere. They are fairly self evident and they know who they are!
The majority of members however are knowledgeable and sane (present company excepted).

Where are you? We are near Saffron Walden and there doesn't seem to be much happening around this area - how about it guys?

I was only thinking the other day, it must be about time we had another meet.
Maybe south of Cambridge this time?

I'm only 20 minutes away from Bishops Stortford so we should have a local meet. Richard Gledhill - close to you also.

P1 eh....hmm...very jealous but in the nicest possible way!! Keeping the right clog off in the first 1000 or so miles difficult but worth it.

The missus and I both have a MY00 UK 4D each.
Full Scoobysport exhaust inc d/pipe and ITG filter on both.

Enjoy the car and let's see if we can get enough replies for a local(ish) meet.

Count me in too.

I'll either bring my scoob or suffer my husbands driving in his.

Actually, if you organise a meet in the next month or so, I'll have to drive because 'he who must not be obeyed' has bust his wrist - he loathes my driving ! tee he

I've just noticed on Dave T-S profile he has moved from Essex to North Essex - think he must think he is going up in the world !!!

Welcome to the fold Wacko. The North London chaps used ot have regular get togethers but hasn't been one for a few weeks. Robw has been arranging most of them.

Where about are you in Herts.

Keep an eye out for any more meets in the not too distant future.

Would be nice for the N London/ Herts people to hook up with the Cambridge people.

Cool, a local meet sounds like a good idea. Be good to meet some local scoob's
Is it me or does it seem that Shell garages appear to be the only ones that sell Super Unleaded ??

Wacko,

Where in Stortford are you? I'm also in Stortford and still running in my P1, only 300 miles or so to go. The Esso garage at Stort Hill on the A120 just over the M11 roundabout towards Dunmow etc. sells SUL.

A Cambridge/Herts/N.London meet sounds great. Lets do it!!

Yo guys,
As said in earlier posts we have fairly regular meets in N.london area, which usually consists of a spot of breakfast and a slow drive
It should be good, just let us know when/where and i'll try to round up the crew.
Grant, Allan long time no see!

Cheers

Wacko,

I'm on Bishops Gate. Are you on St.Michael's Mead? There is a P1 there with reg P1 5UBE, unless that's you?

Also the Total garage in town sells SUL, but both Esso And Shell are cheaper per litre.

See you......

Ok peeps, lets do this.

All we need to knwo is when and where .

Not knowing Cambridgeshire too well not sure where best to meet up. Based on former meets I'd suggest we meet somewhere and have somewhere to go such as a decent pub via some lovley twisty roads.

Any ideas ??

AllanB[/B]<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

okay, here's an idea..
It sounds like there a few people around Bishop Stotford / Royston area. I know of a pub in Barkway / Barley area. Nice country pub with some BEAUTIFUL roads leading to it. You can get to it from the A505 and form the A10. (Both are excellent roads).

Let me know.

Lets get a date sotred out and a venue.

Look forward to seeing you all....

I can't see that being a problem especially if its a nice drive up there.

Can you post a map so we have a rough idea where it is.

Any Sunday is fine maybe within the next 3 weeks ??
