If you look at the santapod and jockular omega threads, it takes approx 14 years and 38,000 posts to arrange a meet on here. Don't give up just yet your only on day one :-? Depending on where and when it is you might even get one or two midlanders tagging along ;)

I don't think another one's been planned yet Roy. I guess there won't be much happening until the weather gets a bit warmer. There will certainly be another meet at Santa Pod later this year due to the large success of last years meet.
Watch this space. 8-)

Not a lot really!! Only Mickdundee (now known as The Man With No Name), Dubford and me turned up, plus quite a few guys were there from Autobahnstormers. Me and Mick ended up in one of my local pubs in Hoddesdon whereby I was duly educated in Jock speak. ::) ;D

I live in Waltham Abbey (J26 M25) and would be interested in a meet close to me. I could hopefully get some of you clever people who know what they are looking at to give my car the once over and maybe help with the numerous problems i have with her. Please advise me when a date and location has been decided.

Just keep an eye out.  This meeting got absorbed into the Brackley parties.  A ton of people are going to Drax tomorrow, then there's the Lake District in June.  Other things pop up relatively quickly, a few people needing cambelts now.
Title: Re: ESSEX/KENT/LONDON MEET
Post by: TheBoy on 11 April 2007, 18:28:16
Thing with cambelts, they are best done in summer for (relatively) guaranteed weather.  The Brackley ones were arranged in a rush due to MaxV6 and Tunnie urgently needing them.

There may well be another in the summer, though I am tight for space, despite my very understanding neighbours, and Tunnie is off round Europe, lucky bugger.
