Tongue-in-cheek wasn't it! Taffy, if you give Chris a shout he will explain all mate, I don't think he has a computer any more so he struggles to read SN most of the time, so it is possible that he didn't know you were coming.

Twigster, I am not joking mate it really did ruin my day,
as for he didnt know I was coming, he edited his own post to add me on his list!
Its just one of those things I suppose, its just that I was very pi55ed off on sunday morning
1, couldnt get into subaru club area (no ticket)chris was going to give me a ticket on sunday morning
2, didnt know where I was going, santa pod wasnt even on my map
3, by the time I got there It was too busy to book in for a drive on the strip
4, didnt even speak yo anyone cause I was still fuming all day

The main point I'm trying to make is that I thought that I was going to part of a good day, with some other likeminded people, and It turned out to be one of the worst days out I have had!

Bummer. don't let it put you off though, I expect there is a good reason for it. The meets are usually good, and I am sure you will find everyone to be a friendly bunch! Even though it can sometimes get completely pear-shaped!!
Besides, worst thing of all is usually my directions on meets!!!

Thumbs up

Chris, how come you havent replied to this thread, I dont think I'm being unreasonable to ask for an explaination as to why no one was there, I did go out of my way to meet up and I didnt ask or want anyone to go out of their way,just to do what was advertised on this forum, I'm sure you are a decent guy, so can you please reply and tell me why no-one was there and maybe apoligise for causing me a lot of trouble,
Cheers Taffyterzo.

Just spoke to Chris, very poor response from an organiser!
Never mind a lesson learnt I think.
memo to myself; must try and stop moaning like an old woman!
