South Northants/North Oxon meet
DIY Si - 3/10/06 at 05:26 PM

Well, it's getting that time of the month again. Any ideas for this meet, or anyone know of anything interesting to go see as a mob? Or shall we meet at the Green Man again, maybe for a meal this time?


scutter - 3/10/06 at 06:02 PM

I'll be on shift, catch you all next time.

ATB Dan.

Leaving it to me again this time then?


greggors84 - 3/10/06 at 07:51 PM

When is the planned date?

I was away for the last one so wouldnt mind meeting up for this one.


DIY Si - 3/10/06 at 07:55 PM

It's norammly around the middle of the month. It's been on/near the 13th so far. Which happens to be friday this month. And my birthday!


soggy 3 - 4/10/06 at 11:15 AM

I start a new job next week (changing from nights) i might come along if thats ok.


DIY Si - 4/10/06 at 03:46 PM

One and all are welcome! You don't have to be building or an owner, just interested in them!


Cheffy - 5/10/06 at 10:31 AM

Fridays not good for me unfortunately, more than likely working

Maybe catch you next time.

Mart.

PS. Don't forget to charge your battery before leaving home Si


greggors84 - 5/10/06 at 11:05 AM

I wouldnt be able to make the 13th as its a mates birthday so will be going out for it.

But as the car is SVAd now, I wouldnt mind a trip out in it. Maybe more people could make it if it was mid week.


scutter - 5/10/06 at 11:41 AM

How about either the 15th-16th-17th of this month, i'll be about then

ATB Dan.


DIY Si - 5/10/06 at 06:49 PM

It can be whenever. I'd rather it weren't the 13th, as I want to drive!

Back from India today - bloody knackered.

Will be in Germany on the 16th - should be there and back in a day. At Brands on the 14th, so I will be stopping with relations in Kent on the 15th, so I can only do 17th. Also got to schedule 1 French trip, 2 Swiss & 1 Swedish, so Oct could be a challenge. Suggest you guys nail a date and then I'll see if I work ariound that.

Cheers

Martin


greggors84 - 8/10/06 at 11:33 PM

To be honest the later the better for me, as i'm waiting for the DVLA to sort out my paperwork.

No one in the office seemed to know what they had to do!


scutter - 9/10/06 at 09:15 AM

I'd go down there in person Chris, I went to the office and they sorted it out in an hour.

So are we saying the 17th at the Green Man?

ATB Dan.


Cheffy - 9/10/06 at 06:41 PM

There's a chance I could do the 17th, just waiting to find out what the boss is doing! Not likely to find out till the weekend though so you guys go ahead and I'll be there if I'm not working.

Cheers,

Mart.


DIY Si - 9/10/06 at 07:27 PM

Not too sure I can do next week at all now. I may be on call again.


DIY Si - 11/10/06 at 03:34 PM

Have tro count me out for next week. I'm on call (12-?) all week.


TimTricker - 12/10/06 at 02:53 PM

Would i be able to tag along?

Easy for me to do any day because i can swap shifts about with ease! Hehe!


Cheffy - 12/10/06 at 05:01 PM

Hi Tim,

Yep, absolutely! The more the merrier!

Mart.


Cheffy - 15/10/06 at 06:49 PM

Right, we still on for 17th - this Tuesday - if so who's gonna be able to make it?

Also, are we definately saying the Green Man?

Mart.


JUD - 15/10/06 at 09:17 PM

Can't do 17th - diary is manic at the moment.

Martin


DIY Si - 15/10/06 at 09:34 PM

Which horribly sunny place you off to this time?


greggors84 - 15/10/06 at 10:22 PM

If its only people from Oxford going along, shall we make it somewhere closer?

Soggy3 said about coming along, but doesnt say where they are from.

Im happy to go over to there though. Got DVLA inspection on tuesday, so fingers crossed I will have a set of plates by the evening.


Cheffy - 16/10/06 at 08:34 AM

Was meant to be in Germany today - but spent last night talking to RALPH on the big white telephone... if you know what I mean.

Feeling much better now though.

Since I am not traveling I will be around on the 17th, so I can troop along. Just need somebody to tell me where and when.

Cheers

Martin


greggors84 - 16/10/06 at 01:25 PM

As there is people coming from all over Oxford area, how about somewhere other than the boundary house. Maybe bit more north. Sturdys Castle again? Not sure how easy it is for everyone to get to.

I'm easy though as im pretty much bang in the middle.


JUD - 16/10/06 at 02:11 PM

Sturdys is fine for me.

Anybody who managed Cheffys's BBQ should be OK for Sturdys as it is only a few miles from Blemheim.

Cheers,

Martin


scutter - 16/10/06 at 02:41 PM

I'll be there, poss in tintop as could be wet but we'll see. Around 19:00-19:30 ish.

ATB Dan.

Yea, reckon I could just about manage that

See ya'll tomorrow.

scutter - 16/10/06 at 08:03 PM

Martin, you want a lift if it's dry?

ATB Dan.


greggors84 - 16/10/06 at 09:39 PM

I meant in the middle of Oxford and between Sturdys and the Boundary House in Abingdon. Im living in Headington at the moment. Easy access to most places for me.

Hopefully will be in the Indy tomorrow! Providing all goes well with the DVLA tomorrow. As long as it doesnt rain too hard!

What time are people planning on getting there, ive had to change a shift to get the car inspected in the morning so will be after 8 before I get to sturdys.

JUD - 17/10/06 at 06:35 AM

Usual time is 7-7:30 so 8:00 will be fine

Can bring you car along for a first legal run out


Jumpy Guy - 17/10/06 at 08:09 AM

too far for me guys... this meet gets further away every time!!

Have fun..


Cheffy - 17/10/06 at 09:12 AM

Hi Dan,

Thanks for the offer mate. I think Anita's coming with but not sure. If she does we'll come probably come over in her hairdressers car.

Can I text you later to confirm?

Cheers,

Martin.


greggors84 - 17/10/06 at 09:30 AM

Just been down to the DVLA for my inspection, when I booked it they never took my paperwork. As they didnt have any paper work for it, they cancelled it! I was fuming!!!

Booked me in for next tuesday!

Will still come along tonight though. Just means I have less time to drive the car before it gets put away for the winter.


greggors84 - 17/10/06 at 12:00 PM

Cant make it now!! Work just called and they have changed my shift. Its all because I changed this morning, which now was for no gain!

Sorry guys! Will see you next time!


JUD - 17/10/06 at 09:26 PM

Good to see people tonight. Need some daylight next time - roll on spring!

Glad Anita enjoyed the blat round in the BEC! ... with the vibration through the seat!

Cheers

Martin


Cheffy - 18/10/06 at 03:07 AM

Anita loved it!!! She's still talking about it - especially the vibrations through the seat bit Thanks Martin.

Thanks for the lift Dan. Good to catch up.

Look forward to seeing everyone again before too long.

Cheers,

Mart.
