There's a Kent meet coming up a little further afield. http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/index.php?topic=97570.0 (http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/index.php?topic=97570.0)

Nothing planned in this area that I'm aware of but no reason why we can't organise one. ;)

Would be happy to bring the Tech 2 along subject to my availability on the day, of course.

Anyone else interested?

Hi
I would be very interested in attending my first meet.
Not sure what the usual day is like
What time does everyone usually turn up?
Bit of i dim question i`m sure but what exactly goes on?
Fraid i dont have much knowledge to exchange but am keen to learn whatever i can.
Maybe the 10th would be best date for me.
Cheers
Adam

Post by: ted_one on 16 January 2012, 18:55:46
O.K I'll start the ball rolling and with a bit of luck one or two others might chip in,depending where and when we meet will dictate wether cars can be worked on so for instance the Kent meet this coming Saturday is held at a cafe with a large car park but not really suitable to fix cars,so what happens there is a bit of breakfast and a bit of a chin wag.then at the other end of the scale there is the High Wycombe meet which sees a lot more cars with various levels of problem solving  with some very knowledgable members who will generally have at least one Tech 2 to help with any diagnostic problems etc.So it just depends which meet you decide to come too but which ever you choose you'll be welcomed.As to the proposed Hampshire meet this is a new venue so if it happens there's a possibility that you would'nt be alone as a newcomer so just turn up and chill out 8) :y

Hi All

Need to find a friendly pub or Cafe with a good sized car park. I also belong to a local motorcycle club and meetings tend to have no structure- just turn up and chat about your vehicles or anything else.

I live in Havant and would be up for a meet somewhere

Hello everyone

I'd be up for this as my first meet, I came in late on last years cambelt meet and was bad date for me which I was well hacked off about  >:( Sounded like a good day from reports

Of dates mentioned the last date would be best for me, I'm in Fareham where the girls don't wear 'em  ;D
Title: Re: Hampshire Meet in 2012
Post by: Gaffers on 03 February 2012, 07:06:46
I cant help but notice a lot of people interested but no one wanting to take the lead.

Unfortunately there will be no cambelt meet organised by me this year, despite the facilities I have access to. I just wont be around due to work :(

So if someone has any ideas...... :y

In the absence of any other suggestions, my local pub in Four Marks has a large car park and is large enough inside to give us an area to meet up out of the way of other punters, I reckon. Not currently doing food but plenty of take-aways in the area. Might be worth an enquiry unless  we're set on being on the coast?

As it was you're original post and it's you're local area how about running a couple of ideas past us in respect of venues,Hayling/Portsmouth/Southampton etc all possibilities but probably most of the guys are like myself not from you're area and therefore unable to pinpoint a location for fixing up a meet.All I know about you're area is Beachlands on Hayling and the car park at Southsea by the funfair so really it's gonna be up to yourself to say where and when as you've got local knowledge.As soon as you decide on a spot and a date I know you'll get a lot of interest and lets face it us townies could do with a nice bit of sea air :-\ :y

Let me know if you have a spare day and I'll pop round for a cuppa/tinnie before you go mate.
Alternate Wednesdays (7/3, 21/3, 11/4, etc)  are off the agenda as that's my chemo day, and I'll be in Leics from 12/3 - 16/3 visiting my daughter.....other than that I have any day spare if you fancy it.
