Nice to see many new faces & thanks to Rob for organising it, food was pretty good & that Dutch guy did a great impression of the "stopppppppeh" advert.

Nate thanks especially for not dribbiling on Jen, (Jen hope u got home safely)

April for taking Pete & Stu home (April drives quite fast!!! Though that is compared to me!!)

Phil for getting the scoring right & doing the next meet (with help from me)

Mike, Chuckster, Mark, Neil, Ed, Richard, Kate, Mousse, Toby ((nice noise from that zorst especially under that tunnel)

Scott, I'll get my scoop before you (in 8 hours!!)

And everyone else, Cheers a great night.....& I think a well done to Disco-John for winning.....unless the scores were altered!!

Excellent night out, really enjoyed it!

Big thanks to Rob for a great job on organising, especially when you consider what else he's been through this month.

Sorry Knowlesy, I know I should have won, but the scores weren't altered, I just collapsed ala Greg Norman[img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

Well done to Kev and Rob for winning, and everyone else for having a go. Ed and Phil for trying to prove that smashing the pins to pieces with torpedo bowls is more effective than knocking them over Chuck for being the best fanclub and Stu for putting me off (I'll getcha back mate)

Much respect to Grey for his excellent film footage, cant imagine what that young lady was thinking about whilst riding that horse

Good to meet all those new faces I haven't met before, its great to see the nights growing, they should be fantastic come the summer!

Disco

PS: Great grub too!

Couldn't make it I was nights but I believe you all sang Happy Birthday to my other half!!!
She was there, only cottoned on at the last minute that you were meeting there. Hope to make the next one to meet and introduce ourselves!!

(p.s. she said all the Scoobys looked amazing parked together!!)

B4BOY - not with her on her birthday (cardinal sin!!) but worst still leaving her to be with 30 other men owning Scoobies.......

Your either MAD (I was going to say bad) or very secure about this relationship!!!

Happy Birthday was OK but CONGRATULATIONS too...............Our lot are definately not singers!!!

A especially big thanks to Rob for all the organisation (the worlds most unflusterable man or what!) and also - based on my bowling performance - thanks Rob for not giving me the prize of the slowest ball to go down the alley.

But really thanks to you all, I had a really fun evening and it was great to meet everyone and to feel really welcome. We need more ladies!

Those scoobs did look a mighty impressive sight.

Great fun!!!! See you all soon, Jen.

Phew!!!!,

well, I must admit I was impressed, it was such a high percentage turnout, as in, almost everyone who said they could or couldn't make it did or didn't...????????

numbers : 25 to eat ( and without making too much mess, even Nate the pizza slinger!!!! )

20 to bowl, now lets be honest, none of us are exactly, well any good (glad I sent that ringer in for me!!!! - sorry!)

one apology, John Wiz, the set up of the bowling kinda got away from me a bit, was even more sorry I had to give you your money back (even more so when I won....gloat.....)

I would especially like to thank Pete Croney and SCOOBYSPORT. On first mention Pete offered a sponsorship to help me make this one an interest generator. The bowling prize was substancially upped on the night, which generated a prize fund of £145.00 - thanks Pete, quite something I thought.

right, suppose you lot want to know the final positions.........

170 points - Robert (Verylba (did I get it right for once?))
171 points - Neil (tried hard to bwl as fast as Phil and ED)
172 points - Pete (ensuring h didn't win any of his own money)
174 points - Mark (is that sqwint?)
175 points - Kate (lets face it robert,its not the first time she whooped ya!)
181 points - Terry (should have been concentrating on this mee for longer !)
184 points - Ed (8/10 injured pins, but tht just made em more stubborn)
190 points - Jen ( Very very respectable...couple of nice strikes i noticed...tink even nate mentioned your pins!!)
197 points - Lajos (foreigners...huh, they get our NHS, Support etc....ten bloody beat us at everything......well done mate!)
197 points(yep tie) - Jonesy ( thanks for not drinking too much, didn't want knowlesy on to you about your100% urine octane booster )
203 points - Stu (cosumed a few, might have helped bowl...not sure if i'll let you do anything to me car today!!)
210 points - April (our top lady, Pete's disguised attempt to save face, and get his money back...)
214 points - Grae (last months holiay certainly affected your bowling)
222 points - Nate (too many women to concentrate on...bowling suffered)
224 points - moos? (looked as hard as he bowled.....top 6!!)
238 points - Phil (looked odds on with 3 strikes in a row + a spare....blew it tallying up all the scores,lost concentration (also need to try and chuck the ball hard s ed!))
241 points - Sampers ( a controlled and steady rhythm, blew it at the last, careful you don't do it to yer turbo!!)
243 points - Disco (mate....what happened, have to mention the 141 first frame score...looked odds on!!!, shame you go warmed up to return to normal...)
248 points - Kev (what a star, tlk about consistent, winner of the bubbly first time, think cash last time, and now this..handicaps required next for sure....!)
254 points - Me (well, I was as surprised as the next bloke, somebody was pressing the buttons leaving me one to get in the middle all the time....a ringer maybe....or maybe it was the remote control *****...lol, sorry peeps, I guess you just get lucky sometimes).

right, well, thanks again, a great night, I enjoyed all of your company toroughly...

for future meets, if we are all gonna take it in turns, then ideas would be a good thing, if anybody has any contacts for events, like karting, paintball, shooting, golf, football, netball/rounders/ a course on loading dishwashers(one for the laydees lol).......D, lol sorry just a joke..

anyway, look forward to seeing you all again soon,

Nate, Robert, Kate all have great holidays.......

rob

edit : due to this fecking keyboard mising letters again....I started typing this when I got home last night........

Guess I'm just going to say what everyone else said.

First meet, top fun. Even if I should have won the bowling

Full marks to the organisation, and special thanks to Pete & Stu for talking shop/looking at my motor on an evening off.

Essex rocks

Nice one Rob! Even if I didn't bowl I got to wear the shoes for an hour or so :-)(only joking mate) I turned up late (as usual) & found an equally confused Jen in the car park.Where were all the Scoobs? Then I remembered something about parking at the rear of the car park & there they were,a fine sight.Then fellow Green 97 man Mark? turned up,also Velrybas' posse.Walked in to F&B's & of
course recognised Pete C(tks for the beer) & Stuart.Thanks to Knowlesy,Toby,Scott,& Chuckster(hope you sort another bike out soon mate!)& everyone else for making this newbie feel welcome.
What kind of action will Nate film next month???
Cheers John

Rob,

Thanks for organising a great night, 25 people sitting down to eat, you are the Delia Smith of Essex (and you've got nicer legs too !) Also, well done at getting the wheels, you can stop questioning SOMEBODIES parentage now can't you?!!!

I'm not very happy at my score. HOWEVER, I think next time I'm gonna wear my own trainers and use that 10lb ball all the way through. Even if I don't get a decent score, at least I can try to kill some of the pins whilst trying. Although, I don't think pink is my colour!

Scott, do you think that those two trucks were a rolling road block set up by Essex Plod. I think they were impressed that your rear spoiler was actually higher then their trailers. Plus, the bloke on the bike, was he on a death wish or what??!!

Ed.
