any upcoming essex meets

[wootty]

been on here a while now and theres quite a few peeps from around the south east section.lets get a meet going as ive missed a couple this year.think arbees the man to see.

[Andrew]

Arbee can help co-ordinate one or setone up but there's nothing wrong with you setting one up too.

Normally they are near Harlow but we've also had one on the A127 at some pub once that straker organised. Nice big car park, nice pub etc easy enough run down.

[wootty]

it would be either the dick turpin(basildon) or the halfway house A127 southend bound.(nearer the m25 the halfway).

[tomtyres]

yea an essex meet sounds cool, def up 4 that!!!

[wootty]

i dont wanna step on arbies shoes so will wait till he comes on and see what he thinks etc.unfortunatly my missus works sundays at the new RBS building southend so saturday afternoons are cool for me as she can have the kids also.:buttkick:

[arbee]

the talbot in North Weald is a great location, as its decent access for loads of areas within a decent range. had up to 20 cars at each of the three so far. I had considered one for early December. I'd like to keep the talbot going as its nice and established and attracts good numbers, but that doesnt stop you organising your own if you wish.

I was thinking 10th December?

I'm up for 10th / a Saturday meet - Talbot is fine for me.

But don't be restricted to the Essex only meets - lots of them out there and all worth a drive :)


(Yes it was the halfway house)....

[arbee]

^^^ what he said - fancy taking a drive up to Kings Lynn in Nov? it really aint as far as you may think :)

Edit - Wayne, are you coming to The 'Lynn meet :) gotta be closer for you than The Talbot

Thinking about it a bit more, I may attempt to find a sprog friendly alternative to the Talbot for those of you with nippers :)

[Andrew]

We promise to make you feel welcome. There will be no banjos don't fear.

[T5ER]

even i didn't look at it like that DIcky think it is about 240 R/T for me, so that's about £40 on VP.

[wootty]

its not so much the miles or dough 4 juice its the 5 hours travelling too.kings lynns only 30 miles from boston lincs.birminghams nearer.

[arbee]

ok I'll stick up another thread for the Talbot in Dec, in the meanwhile, if anyone fancies, how about a mini-evening meet one weekday within the next few weeks? was thinkinking brentwood/M25 J28 direction as its nice and easy for essex/london peeps to get to. Anyone up for it?

[wootty]

yes well up for that.i dont get a great deal of time as me missus works and im left babysitting so a midweek meets fine.the halfway house is only 3 mins from the M25 brentwood turnoff.

[Storm-Troll]

Well if your gonna arange a north weald meet, im up for that in November,, I can do the weekends of the 5th and the 19th, the other two I got my Son for the weekend down in Kent......... Plus im gonna be cruising around if anyone is down this way this weekend.......
