Welung666 · « **Reply #1 on:** 11 October 2009, 23:11:17 »

I do like Fort William, long way for me though, although SWMBO likes your Morrisons

steve-o2.5 · « **Reply #2 on:** 11 October 2009, 23:24:59 »

morrions, aaaarrrrraaaagggghhh we hate it! often find us on the road to inverness to tesco 140 mile round trip.

Glad to see another scot on here.

The meets are usually titled "Jockular Omegas"
Dunno who came up with that one.

There is a bit of a trend with these meets.......
They take ages to get organised.

Have a gander in the Meetings area and you will find some pics from the previous meets.

Hi,

Anymore thoughts on a meet? Would there be a chance of someone with a Tech 2 willing to turn up and do some bits?

Cheers,
Iain

Jim · « **Reply #6 on:** 24 October 2009, 09:00:59 »

I wouldn't mind a Jockular Omegas Meet, i think the next meet would be number 7!!!.

doog · « **Reply #7 on:** 24 October 2009, 11:25:03 »

hotel21 has a tech2 i am sure he could be persuaded to bring it to a meet if you bring your wallet

barclay03 · « **Reply #10 on:** 24 October 2009, 12:39:54 »

Would consider comming along

if its in stirling, the mrs' comes from there so she could visit family rather than being bored

omegaman2 · « **Reply #11 on:** 24 October 2009, 12:45:05 »

what about stirling mills and through in some xmas shopping as well

Jim · « **Reply #12 on:** 25 October 2009, 09:05:24 »

The first omega meeting we had was in stirling at the services to be exact, it was a good meeting

doog · « **Reply #13 on:** 26 October 2009, 22:35:08 »

all suggested places are local to me so i agree to all of them

Doug

hotel21 · « **Reply #14 on:** 28 October 2009, 23:13:03 »

Not fussy where, kinda fed up with everyone dancing around locations/dates.

Someone pick a place/date and will see who is available thereafter.....

cam2502 · « **Reply #15 on:** 11 November 2009, 14:48:54 »

AlanV2 · « **Reply #18 on:** 20 November 2009, 16:07:52 »

Did anyone meet or did this thread just die?

If I could remember to look in here for dates I would try and make it this time, possible, maybe

cam2502 · « **Reply #19 on:** 23 November 2009, 09:49:10 »

You know you JO's can't do that

More disk space on order should you decide to think about planning another scots meet

Jim · « **Reply #22 on:** 26 November 2009, 10:42:17 »

Nothing happened,
I just suggested a few dates to see if there was any intrested

Colv · « **Reply #23 on:** 12 March 2010, 23:59:21 »

Do we want to try this again folks? :-/

we need to get oor fingers oot here! lol

What do we think of Grangemouth?
Just of the M9, J5 iirc, theres a car park right behind the sports stadium on Inchyra road
It's just a 100 yard single row of spaces but it's almost always empty, it's only really used by coaches if theres an event on at the stadium

http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=inchyra+road+grangemouth+sports+stadium&sll=56.015704,-3.721533&sspn=0.022837,0.0842&ie=UTF8&hq=sports+stadium&hnear=Inchyra+Rd,+Grangemouth,+UK&ll=56.006636,-3.707757&spn=0.011421,0.0421&t=h&z=15&iwloc=A

you can't really see it on the map lol but it's right there to the top right corner of the stadium. It's easy to get to and I think fairly central to everyone according to the OOF map
Theres an open grass area if anyone brings a dog (the four legged kind, not the wife!

)

Anyone?

hotel21 · « **Reply #24 on:** 16 March 2010, 23:51:19 »

yup, do-able for me.....

pick a date to suit everyone else.....

Arrolman · « **Reply #25 on:** 19 March 2010, 13:43:33 »

Hi,

Would be interested in this, hopefully be back in miggy ownership within the next month. Idea of possible dates that people could make?

I think the last one we had was about 2.5 years ago, we used to have them quite often a few years ago them they just fell on there arse!!!
The Biggest one we had was at the Forth Road Bridge I think we had about 20 mig's at that one.

Sounds like a plan,
The first meeting we had was at Stirling Services, I think Oct 96ish and the 4th meeting we had was at callander.
