Hi guys & girls

Anyone from the Portsmouth area fancy meeting up again? Think the last meet in the area was at the view point overlooking Pompey (The Churchillian??). Any suggestions for a venue and a date?

Come on .... I know there's loads of you out there.

Jo

Hiya
If someone who knows the area wants to say where and when I'll be there!
I think if you made it slightly Southhampton-way a bit you might get a few more cars turn up, only a thought though!

I'm not far from Pompey - Love to come - Last Sunday in Feb (26th) ?

Port Solent is very easy to find for those from out of the area but might be busy, parking-wise.

Directions to the Churchillian and I'll be there

I would have to agree that port solent would be to busy parking wise. the seafront or fun fair could be another alternative, it all depends on what people want to do.
If its pub for good food then the churcillian is good, or if it's just tea and bacon buttys then the view point or the sea front are good.
just my 2p's worth

I don't know scumhapton (sorry Southampton) that well to make any suggestions about a good place there.

Theres another 2 cars from Winchester that'll come down too. (STI 3 + STI 3 Type-R)

So do we have an opinion on the Churchillian? I've never been (never even heard of it!), but if someone posts some decent directions I think we should get quite a few cars/people down there.

For want of a better time, how about the last Sunday in Feb (25th)?

Any takers?

I've got a couple of bit maps, with directions to the churchillan.
I have absolutely no idea how to post them, as I'm an **** when it comes to computer stuff.
I could forward them to some one with more than the half a brain cell I have.

OK Phil,

I'll be there, as long as you all don't take the p*ss out of my recently aquired parking damage on the rear bumper... I'm never lending the missus the car again!! How she managed to f**k up both corners is beyond me...... Surprised Gary Foster hasn't posted on here yet! I'll drop him a mail!!!

Oooh ! This is exciting ! (Cheers Karl !)

I'll be coming if I've managed to get new brakes by then (I bloody hope so !), failing that I'll push the car there

For all you guys traveling down, Churchillian is very easy to get to, you won't need to go into Portsmouth as it's outside the Island on a big hill. It's quite a pretty view as well.

Gussie Cup,

I'll drop you my mobile number nearer the time. I actually live in Gosport (I don't want to hear it from you true Pompey boys!)which is between Portsmouth and Southampton
so could meet you at say, Junction 11 of the M27 and then you could follow me to the Churchillian if you like? This offer's open to anyone else coming from far a field. Let me know...

Gary,

Good, you got my mail then! Let me know if you need a lift!

Chizz,

Rest assured I shall be taking the opportunity for maximum gandering! :-)

Hey, Did I pass any of you guys today in Havant? I just pulled off New Lane by Wyeth laboratories at around 13:40 and spotted a nice looking Silver scooby coming out of the next turning. Didn't get the reg. I was in my red MY96.....Anybody...? It'd be nice to know another scooby parks in the area during the day, so all the Leigh Park boys have got another one to go for other than mine! ;-)

Karlos
