With the ever successful Newent meet over for this year can we have a think about a Chester services day meet?
They seem to have gone quite well so far, Guy. :y
-
aye, give it a month or 2 I reckon, and be worth doing, we had Holywell a few weeks ago too..
-
Ooo I'll see if Grandad will bring me and my sister to meet you all.
-
chester hmm,i may just pop down
-
yeh id be up for a meet there :y
-
Sounds good to me, although I was over at Holywell the other day and the cafe and private secure parking would make a good place to meet ;)
-
... and the cafe and private secure parking would make a good place to meet ;)
It was! :y :y :y
-
and the sausage and bacon muffins took some beating too :y
-
We could do it there, sounds good to me! :y
-
Yes we could do it there.... I hear this place does do a mean bacon butty... and discounted for OOF members.... Private carpark for all miggys..
-
Wife just informs me all food and drinks are discounted for OOF members....
-
So how about it then? 8)
-
:y from me
-
aye
-
Come on then boys any idea of a date as my old girl is going back on the road next week.
When was last years that was november IIRC?

-
Could always try this place in the future
http://www.chesterlakes.co.uk/
I've had quite a few Sunday morning breakfasts here in the past few months :y
-

Don't know about that Deb, its more then 200 yards ;D
-
Doesn't look too far away from where I work, so I could prob make it. If the weather's dry this weekend, I could be checking out my LPG install (great, half price fuel again :y :y :y )
Ken
-
I'm game, could do with borrowing someones ears to find a pesky airleak.
Any dates ?
-
Any day over any weekend is good for me but some members are on shift work.
Shall we start the ball rolling with November? When can you all make it? Stuff the services it's between the two other venues.

Looking forward to another November meet! :y
Saturdays (anytime) would better for the doggies and I; than on a Sunday (which we could probably only do in the afternoon).
-
Ok so it's a saturday November meet....which venue & which saturday is good for the rest of you?

Keith's (aka Vauxsul) on 5th or 26th Nov for me ............ working t'other two Sats :y :y
-
Cant do this Sat (5th) but others look ok.
Selfishly Chester Lakes (dead easy for me) But happy with Keiths at Holywell too :y
-
Ill get a poll up.....
-
Poll up, so vote for fav's :y
Lets get it sorted
-
If it were near Christmas I would be able to POP along as I will be visiting family. Shame sounds like it'll be a fun meet :y
-
Keiths gaff, purely for the bacon muffins :y
-
I've voted Holywell (cos it sounds rather quaint!!!) & the 26th cos it seems that's when most of you can make it. I'd be equally as happy with Chester lakes but as timne is closing in can we agree on the 26th & just decide on the venue?
That way at least we know when & only have to decide where?
-
I think that is starting to look conclusive...
ive just texted Keith to see if his venue is available :y
-
Right, Vauxsull is struggling for internet access today, but has confirmed that is ok, and discounts available at the shop again :)

Bloody hell Debs yes it is indeed but it'll be open during the day while everyone turns up... well done on posting that... ( Why didnt i think of that?)

It'll hold around 20 cars parked sensibly too... :y... if there's anyone coming that's of the catholic faith the church next door is apparently one of the most prestigious places to visit in the UK..

-
If only I knew what you where on about :y
-
Just a thought!
Is anyone planning on doing any 'jobs' at the meet tomorrow?
I have a set of (metal) ramps and metre-squared (grp) crawl board that I could easily bring along if needed. ;)
Edited: for poor smelling. ;D
-
Sorry guys, I may not be able to make it..... >:(
On the way to work yesterday I put my foot on the brakes and it went straight to the floor :o
Turns out to be the front to back pipe near the back axle.
It's in the garage and he's hoping to get it done ( got every thing crossed) but he is fully booked and will try to sqeeze it in.
-
Do hope you can all make it.
Dont expect much work, but who knows.
Ill certainly have basic computer diags with me.
-
IF I can make it i'll take all my tools ;)
-
IF I can make it i'll take all my tools
for gods sake pete dont leave them in boot ;D ;D
btw pm sent :y
-
Bring your kite's with you it's going to be blowing a bit :o
-
Ok then guys this is what i shall do tomorrow for those that are turning up.... To prevent non Omega vehicles entering the carpark i shall close the gate behind the last on to enter so all you'll have to do is walk across the road and push the gate open , pull in and close it behind you... does this sound ok? :y
-
Just a bit of a heads up. My 11 month old isn't well so its touch and go as to wether ill be coming. Hopefully should be ok though :y
-
I might be coming along as well. I am trying to finish my LPG install, but its too ****** cold :'( :'( :'(
Ken
-
Ok then Ken but read my last comment regarding the gate to car park... just my way of keeping out non Omega vehicles..
-
just my way of keeping out non Omega vehicles..
ummm does that include my mig cunningly disguised as a vec :( :( :( :( :(
-
Well yes if your part of the OOF then naturally your welcome to come... what im doing regarding the gate is purely because when the cafe gets busy and the carpark across the road gets full they start to park around the back and I dont want that to happen tomorrow...
-

Pipes replaced, apparently both original pipes from new he reckons!
He said it was not worth just repairing the damaged bit because it would only go further along in the near future :o
See you all about 12ish tomorrow :y
-
Just PM'd Vauxsall to make sure he'll let Roary the racing car in!!! See you all tomorrow, Guy. 8)
-
... My 11 month old isn't well so .....
:o :o Bloody Hell! Is she that old already?
-
Sorry guys but I have a few thing that have cropped up urgently requiring my attention today! Have a good meet !
-
Great meet, even stayed dry except for a couple of spots!
Many thanks to Keith and his good lady(sorry don't know her name) for their hospitality.... :y
Good to see some old faces and meet some new ones!
