Thinking of having a meeting at Gretna outlet village on the following date. Reason for choosing is its pretty central for peeps from scotland and north of england.

Sunday 31st July - Gives the site a few weeks to get up and running and attract new members to invite along from other shows like vboa day before then

Anyone interested please post up your names.

1-Graeme

I would say put my name on the list... but london is a bit of a distance from gretna!

unless I eloped for the weekend!

Duncan
8th June 2005, 22:35
What abut we get a list going in the first instance. Then work out a location that is as equidistant as possible based on who is coming?

Cheeky_B
8th June 2005, 22:40
equidistant....................loving it matey

That word has made my night....:D :D :D

Duncan
8th June 2005, 22:42
Try saying it after a few sherberts though!!!

Bainie
8th June 2005, 22:43
I think from the C meet on VS we found Equidistant was too far for everyone to go, If you guys are having a meet at Silverstone I reckon a scottish meet should be on the cards, even if it is on the edge, My thoughts anyhow...

Andy
8th June 2005, 22:46
oh ******, im at a wedding that weekend? any chance the weekend after and i can come. Or even the week before?

Bainie
8th June 2005, 22:48
I can`t do the week before, after would be cool, i`ll sell it to the wife as a romantic break *lol*

I think from the C meet on VS we found Equidistant was too far for everyone to go,:confused: erm equidistant is equidistant - how can it be too for for some? It's the shortest distance possible for everyoner. Otherwise some people are going to end up driving a good bit further than others - bearing in mind it's a National Meet

Bainie
8th June 2005, 22:51
I think the point is a national meet can`t work for everyone, on VS we had Aberdeen to Plymouth. I think to rename scottish or north meet perhaps, have the national at Silverstone??

Duncan
8th June 2005, 22:52
Right, gotcha

Andy
8th June 2005, 23:02
what i suggest is that everyone sorts out meets local to them, then evry year we'll have a national meet at a car show, eg trax or PVS etc Maybe even billing, then everyone can camp over etc. we'll do something special for the national meet too, rather than just a meet up, look at cars, go home affair

Hows that sound?

Bainie
9th June 2005, 07:04
Sounds good Andy, as you say, it would be a bit far to go, stay over night in a hotel for an hour in a car park, I think the national should be a one off biggy, and when we have a good lot of members and if it`s at a show it gives the extra incentive to get there.

So we still on for Gretna, I think it is a nice location as it can take in a few cities, Greame back to you..

Andy
9th June 2005, 07:31
gretna is good for me, just the date that isnt.

AJA
9th June 2005, 09:59
Let me know when and I'll try my darnest to get there.

Graeme
9th June 2005, 19:49
I'm still cool for gretna. unfortunately before that date the only time i'm free at a weekend is this sunday 12th or sunday 26the june. anyone of those suit?

Girl Racer
9th June 2005, 20:06

Graeme
9th June 2005, 20:49

Bainie

Girl Racer
9th June 2005, 22:24
