This months and future southern softies meets

[oblark]

As the last two months southern meets have been very disappointing in the number of peeps attending.

At the begin of each month someone starts a thread on the next meet and everyone starts throwing they handbags.

So who whats a fixed date ? or a bun fight each month to argue over the next meet ?

I would set up a poll for peeps to vote but for the love of god I can`t figure out how to set up a poll.

Either would work I suppose, say the 3rd Sunday in the month for example, or we could carry on with the 'bunfight' method.....it's worked well so far.

I work some weekends so either way won't mean I can attend more, fwiw we're free this Sunday or the 27th

Rob, click "thread tools" at the top of the page and click the option for a poll. The rest is simples.

Not all Southerners stay in the south.

Well the idea of this thread was for the softies to vote on future meets.........

As only two have voted I take it no one wants to bother with these meets.

All you want to is to argue that the southern meet is far.

Mornin Rob.

Is there a "don't care" option to vote for?

I second that.

[oblark]

Is that a "dont care" when the meet is or a "dont care" if the meet doesn't happen ?

[stribo]

Don't care when the meet is, if we can make it we'll be there, if we can't, we won't.

[M-R-P]

I personally don't care when the meets are, if I can make it, I will.

This is why I stopped organising these meets, I just couldn't be arsed with the ball-ache.

I would like to see the softies meet go back to having 13+ cars attending as it was good fun and filling one side of a car park with volvos is quite a sight.

[V70 Graham]

As above, we've always been there when I haven't been working.

Thats why I started this thread with a poll some people could say whether they wanted a fixed or floating date.

I`m also pissed off with the ball ache of organising these meets.

So with no one organising these meets it looks like the end of the "southern softies meets"

How do you come to that conclusion? All that needs to happen is someone asks who can make when at the beginning of the month.

Thats my point........................

Someone put a date forward and all you get "cant do then but I can do then" or "cant we do it the following weekend"

If we had a fixed date the poeple would no when the meet was and all this arguing would stop, remember we are surposed to be adults not kids.

Regardless of which is decided all I suggest is that the original poster actively contacts a Moderator to put the date in the thread title.
As above I will attend the opening of an envelope if l'm free.

If I have to make a decision rather than sitting on a fence, I would choose a fixed weekend

After the Essex meet you attended do you think it's wise to venture out again lol
