All Alfa Meet location suggestions

Heya all,

Seen as some people are being demanding (Techie) I'd said I set up a thread first and see what people's opinons and ideas are on this.

And throw out some dates too.

Damien.

somewhere up this end of the country?
or even in the midlands somewhere?

Ya I was thinking that maybe Mullingar that is practically the middle of the country or some where along the coast for a nice spot of roads or anywhere that anyone else thinks of??

Midlands is cool as no traffic jams like Dublin to deal with !!

yeah midlands would be good, there's some sweet roads and spots to park up near a lake out near mullingar...

Stranraer or Cairnryan

I suppose it will really depend on how many people from each area are interested & will actually turn up, there's no point in having it in Dublin for example if no one from that end of the country is going to turn up, Just my 2 cents

Thats why it would be best to have it in the Midlands as everyone will have to put in an effort and travel to get to it !!!!

I wouldn't be willing to drive all the way down to cork from cavan, but yeah, I'd do the midlands provided I'm free from work

from the spelling alone i'm guessing they're in Wales

Wherever suits me. Hopefully ill have the car fully functional soon enough.

I reckon wherever the location is though we need more than just good roads and spots for a couple of photos as we'll probably be looking at a couple of hours driving just to get there.

Wonder if there's anything interesting happing in the midlands over the next couple of months that could be a distraction?

I would go to anywhere around the Midlands or east coast!

First couple of weeks in August...?

Ahh ya obviously this thread is to set up a location and have a few ideas for where to go. And dates etc.

Is it the 'Hodson Bay' Hotel in Athlone (on the lake) that you're thinking of ? Athlone is EVEN MORE central than Mullingar

And I know it's a trampish holiday spot but somewhere like Courttown (Wexford) is coastal and between Dublin & Cork. Might make for nice pictures too.

Stayed there recently with the family, not too bad and has a huge car park. If they got notice could block off an area!!!

Lol, I just looked at the map of IReland and saw there first haha. Anywhere suits me.

I'd second that. It's just one big car park

What kind of date range are we looking at? Reason I ask is, if it's reasonably far away it might motivate me to get the 75 up and running for it.

I'm not sure Bob whatever suits ye all??

Have car will travel

preferably before mid august?

child #2 is due 22nd august, so I'd like to go out for a meet before the due date if possible

mullingar yep sounds good to me

adam

So Mullingar seems to be popular Damien, you set a date now !!

Emm August I suppose I need to give work enough time to get it off. And I'll leave it open to more suggestions man. No need to be s
