Title: Wigan/Greater Manc/Lancs/Merseyside Meet??
Post by: damon80 on 02 May 2009, 00:26:45
I've noticed that more and more members on here are from God's own country (i.e. Wigan).

It'd be great to put some faces to the names (and to the Miggy's that are seemingly sprouting up in the local area!)

If anybody local to the Wigan area fancies a meet - one Saturday afternoon perhaps? - drop me a PM and I'll sort something  :y

Seriously though I will come along once my mig is fixed.  :y

I'm afraid I'll have to disagree with you on that one Daz!!   :D  :D

But that'd be great - the more the merrier!  :y  As soon as I get a couple more names on the list, I'll get a date sorted  :)

Right then folks, so far we're looking at:

Me confirmed (obviously...  :D)
Scottie7275
Loo Knee (apparently he's a Jedi Master now...  ;D )
Omegod
Gareth Lewis
Gstylebaby Confirmed
AndyB
Tony H
Elite Pete (poss)
Zok (poss)
Robwig Confirmed

Anymore for anymore??

Any preferences on a meeting ground?  I was thinking of one of our local watering holes, which has a nice big car park.  It's literally minutes away from the M6/M58 interchange, so nice n easy to find  :y

As for dates - well, which would suit you lot the best?  Would say 2pm on Sat 6th June be ok??

I'm local as a few of you know, but i no longer have an omega, BUT, this may be a perfect time to highlight that I have a set of prefacelift elite alloys for sale in the relevant section, and if anyone wanting them happens to be coming up to the meet on 6th June, i'll happily drop by with them to save any hassle of directing them to my house thats well out of the way!

 :-? That came round quick! It looks like if we get a venue for the meet I'll be in my Astra .....

NB when you tell a body shop that you're not really in that much of a rush for the car back, is unreasonable of me to expect them to have at least made a start since the last Bank Holiday Monday?  :-?

Hi all,

Sorry for the big disappointment around this, and the lack of communications  :-[

Had major issues work-wise this last month, and it's still on-going now  :(

I apologise for all who I've let down, but I'm hoping that this meet will go ahead towards the back end of August.

Yes, I should've posted a message saying that the meet will be postponed, but I honestly ain't had the chance whatsoever - its got to the point this month that I can hardly remember what me kids look like I've been away at work this much  :-[

So please bear with me folks, and be gentle - we'll get it sorted  :y
