Looks like another goood un Nige

Couldnt agree more about the "large venue" drawbacks and its to be expected im sure they probably have groups of people coming day in day out so to cater on a personal level may difficult

Either way im in

I think it won't be our usual cosy style of Meet but it should be good, lots of history about the place.

I was there just before Lunch and it was pretty busy. I did ask what the place was like on a Thursday night but apparently it's very variable so we just have to take our chances !

Now everyone else, get busy RSVP ing, there seems to be a slow start on this one.

If your going straight from work then i could pop along for a convoy? Saves you turning up on your lonesome......might mean that you dont end up lost too "just follow the Alfa....the silver one.....with irish plates....with me driving" how hard can it be?

Sounds good to me , sounds like a plan!... Let's face it .... if you followed me, we'd end up in Sheffield .. or worse still ... back in Holbeach !

Haven't you replaced that yet for one that actually knows where it is? Maybe if you change it from the women's voice to the bloke he might know where he's going! But I think you like the excitement of getting lost anyway.

Interesting yes, but a bit different from our usual sort of place. I can understand what Kev says and agree to an extent but as it's our " Aviation " Month thought we couldn't find anywhere else so involved.

Hope it's a good night !

You should come along anyway and don't worry, as a group we are certainly going back to Burton Waters again, perhaps next Spring.

I might have actually found someone to buy one of my motorbikes, I did try selling my son but he's to big to get up the chimneys now. So the wheels should be staying on the car until I swap if for another alfa. So hopefully have my car back for the end of the month.

hope it didn't come across wrong nige, didn't mean it too. i know how much time & effort (not to mention your own personal costs riding round) you put into finding these venues so i would never want to criticise any. i know you have a broad chruch to cater for

me, i'm looking forward to fish, chips & musshy peas on skeggy seafront. missed it last year due to working, got this year booked off already

just i would rather say it like it is. better that way i find than to say i'm coming then not show, like the scalextric meet. which for what it's worth was the best meet we've had i think

it would get my vote for a return visit, and robs'

Nope, no worries, didn't read it wrong at all. I do share your views on it actually but live in hope that we'll make it a good night. On the plus side it is a very nice building to stroll around, a bit to see which should, I hope, uplift it from the rather restaurant and impersonal feel of the Bars.

Certain to go ahead with the Skeggy Meet, how about the 30th Dec for this ? ( I'll propose this date on the Winter Meets Thread too. )

I want to do the Scalextric as well so I'll starve myself before I visit the place in readiness for a large chunk of Humble Pie.

Onwards and upwards. Just done the gardening except for the Hedges, they can wait ! So, what next before beer at six ?

i may well give it a go nige, after all it's the company that make the nights more than the location

and i can sometimes act posh

as long as there is no gravy involved

skeggy meet is fine by me any day. i will be finishing work christams eve and off until jan 3rd, any day suits me

don't know what to suggest about the scalextric date. it deserves to be a much bigger success than it was. before or after christmas?? difficult to say what is best

earlier while folks aren't fed up with the winter travelling??

see what the (hopefully) majority say
