I'm down your way and Evel and I thought it might be a good idea to have a meet

Short notice I know but if you can make it we'd love to meet you

I'm bringing me camera as well so you might find yourself on a picture thread

We'll be here

Shall we say 7:00pm

Hope to meet a few more AOers

    Only 10 minutes drive for me, count on 2 from here (me and son). Are we eating, sounds a good plan to me, I'll have to miss my tea to get there for 7!

Four counts as a great meet in an area with no Rep well done guys and don't forget it's short notice as well

Re: Lets have a Midlands meet

Missed out on this one guys, could do with a poke to remind me when you do another.

An idea that occured to me was that if people are drawn by:-
a) a group of Alfas
b) being able to chat and look at each others Alfas, then
c) how about having a meet a some where like a KFC, Pizza Hut, BK or Mc D's. 'cos if ya missed yer teatime munchies, ya can grab what ya want and mooch n munch around the cars at hte same time (weather permitting of course)

Some fast food hotspots on mine and evels doorstep (in the almost middle of the west midlands) with good m'way access are:- KFC & Pizza hut just off M6 J9 wednesbury, KFC just off M6 J10 by the Village hotel and BK at the junction of The Black Country route and Keyway just over the road from Guests Alfa.

Nice thinking Mr Berlina , was thinking of approaching Guests to see if we could get a little meet there then we could have a look at all the new shiney alfas . I'll keep you posted

Re: Lets have a Midlands meet

I did call in there a few months back with my little girl when i had 30 mins to kill , they were quite happy to let us sit in all the cars . I do know one of the mechanics there as well(Picked his brains a few timesplus he's an alfa nut) so if he was up for it maybe i can get him there for a bit of Q&A
