OK OK, I know it's been a long time, But.

Who Fancies starting up the Area meeting again?

A default place would be the Rose Revived at Newbridge, but I'm open to other choices.

Will be looking at Tuesday the 13th March about 19:30 hrs.

ATB Dan.

phelpsa - 26/2/12 at 07:14 PM

I could probably make it along after work

greed1 - 26/2/12 at 07:22 PM

Mine won't be ready by then but hopefully by the next one Iva dependent

scutter - 26/2/12 at 07:30 PM

All welcome, Greed1 you don't need a finished car to waffle with us, just ask Cheffy.

I'll have mine there, give you a spin to help you along.

ATB Dan.

Thank you Daniel! But hey, when it comes to waffling Scutters your man!

Unfortunately I won't be at the meet - I fly out to Malta on the 9th March for a fortnight. Unless of course you fancy re-arranging the meet on the 13th to be in Valletta!

Lata's chaps,

Mart/Cheffy.

So back in circulation then?
Cheers, Pewe10


And yours truly is back then!

Dopdog - 1/3/12 at 06:55 PM

sounds good will this happen?

scutter - 2/3/12 at 08:44 AM

What, do you lot think this is a democracy!!

OK folks 27th is good for me. Same time and place? As I don't mind travelling.

ATB Dan.

Cheffy - 2/3/12 at 09:21 AM

Works for me.

However, in our democratic society, I understand if the original date works for the majority and you wanna stick with that.

pewe - 2/3/12 at 09:58 AM

In that case I'm in - don't know what set of wheels but a run over the Downs is not to be missed.
See yous at the Rose?
Cheers, Pewe10

matt_gsxr - 2/3/12 at 10:33 AM

Dan,

So this is 27th March at 19:30 Rose Revived.

Can't make it, but very pleased that this has been started again.

Matt

Fizzer - 2/3/12 at 10:49 AM

Great, an extra hour of daylight. Looking forward to clearing out the cobwebs.

Hi all,

I'm new to all this, just bought a pre-built Mac#1 ZX10 which I'm loving. It was built by "Flamez"

I'm in Aylesbury so would be a good run out through Bicester. Fingers crossed for the weather!

ian locostzx9rc2 - 2/3/12 at 05:16 PM

Is it going to be 27th then?

[Edited on 2/3/12 by ian locostzx9rc2]

scutter - 27/3/12 at 10:56 AM

ATB Dan.

Good to meet some new faces tonight. Some interesting cars too.

Steve (white fury)

matt_gsxr - 27/3/12 at 09:21 PM

Had to go to a meeting at the school.

When is the next get-together?

greed1 - 27/3/12 at 09:42 PM

Hope I can make the next one
Would like to see how they should look when finished and not in bit in the garage

Fizzer - 28/3/12 at 07:09 AM

Was great to see a few faces last night, maybe my car will be back on the road for the next one.
We could make it a monthly thing (I think it was previously)
Perhaps every last Tuesday of the month, as it was last night?
Other suggestions?

Cheffy - 28/3/12 at 07:44 AM

Yep, always used to be the second Tuesday of the month but we haven't had a meet for 6 months or so. Dan (Scutter) had originally proposed an earlier date but we waited a couple of weeks until the clocks went forward to give us a bit more daylight. (Plus I would have been away on holiday on the original date! )

No doubt Scutter will be along shortly to set up the next one.......

Cheers,

Martin.

Fizzer - 28/3/12 at 07:49 AM

If it was the second tuesday that would mean another meet in a couple of weeks
Great!

scutter - 28/3/12 at 08:43 AM

Cheers for everyone who came last night and we'll see those that didn't at the next meet.

I'm planning on dragging it back to the second Tuesday (Sorry Fizzer, it'll give you more of a target )

Thanks also to Mark and his Chiltern 7's group for popping along too, even if it made me want to keep him behind me on the way home

The Chiltern 7's can be found HERE so there is the possiblity of 2 meets a month.

ATB Dan.

Dopdog - 5/4/12 at 05:46 PM

Does this mean the next meet will be the 10th? Tuesday after the bank holiday

ian locostzx9rc2 - 9/4/12 at 10:12 AM

Hi are we meeting up tomorrow?

Cheffy - 9/4/12 at 04:05 PM

Afternoon all,

I'm going and I've just texted Dan/Scutter and he'll be there. See you tomorrow

Mart.

Glad you got it sorted. Why do things never go wrong on a nice sunny afternoon while the car is still on the drive!

Good to see everyone again. See you next month.

Best regards,

I'd like to get along and meet some of the local builders.

Chris

Haha. I'm just looking forward to having a chat again and meeting some new people.

I'll have a chat about finishing a little earlier, but I might not be there until about 8.

See you tomorrow,

Chris

I'll be there again this time

scutter - 12/6/12 at 09:44 PM

Great to see all you guys again, Pulled away from the rose and did the first few corners over the bridges and got wet feet

The blanking plug that I'd fitted in the heater circuit and decided to fire out whilst we were all chatting. Luckily I nursed it to the local car sales place, took off the bonnet and found the plug embedded in the loom. A refit/fill and the slowest drive i've ever had and were back.

ATB Dan.

ChrisLeary - 12/6/12 at 10:15 PM

Thanks for a great night, out was good to put some faces to names.

I was a little jelous watching you all drive off in your kits though!

I look forward to seeing you all again next month.

Chris

Dopdog - 13/6/12 at 06:05 AM

I hope this does not mean that one of us has to have a little issue every time we meet see you all next month.
