SebringRS Posted January 3, 2011 Report Posted January 3, 2011 This always seems to crop up, but nothing sticks So lets try a different strategy Name a place thats central that: 1) Have food facilities and drinks 2) central enough to include surrounding areas, such as Birmingham, Coventry etc. 3) and lastly a date like, e.g. every 2nd sunday of the month, that we can stick to so people know when it is. Let the voting begin
mexman123 Posted January 5, 2011 Report Posted January 5, 2011 Every 2nd Sunday is good.....Have to work on Saturdays
SebringRS Posted January 5, 2011 Author Report Posted January 5, 2011 Sounds good to me, I work Saturday's too
mk2-mad-ad Posted January 5, 2011 Report Posted January 5, 2011 if you could make it within 30 mins of stoke-on-trent that would ace id defo be up for it as nothing ever happens up this way its poo
SebringRS Posted January 5, 2011 Author Report Posted January 5, 2011 Birmingham is about 50 mins from Stoke-on-trent Could have it back at the usual pub, Toby Cavery by the NEC??
mrcheese Posted January 6, 2011 Report Posted January 6, 2011 I'd be up for this, though as usual you can't please everyone all of the time when it comes to distances, so i think the best thing is to have the meet somewhere like nec or that area as it opens up the oppurtunity for more people as its more central, and is easily acssesible from the motorway
RossMK2 Posted January 7, 2011 Report Posted January 7, 2011 The toby carvery place sounds good place to me It was there before so i think the only way of sorting a new meet is putting it there again i only got to one there and it was a great place for parking etc So toby cavery by nec every second sunday sounds great to me
SebringRS Posted January 7, 2011 Author Report Posted January 7, 2011 Ok, Toby Carvery every second sunday of the month Starting from March????
SebringRS Posted January 8, 2011 Author Report Posted January 8, 2011 Sorted, 1st West Midlands Meet: 13th March @ Toby Carvery by NEC Time: Hows 11am-1pm?? (maybe a little later??) So we can sample some of the pubs grub if we feel like it
RossMK2 Posted January 8, 2011 Report Posted January 8, 2011 Timewise i think slightly later but its whats best for everyone matters Try PM'ing some other midlanders this link and see what they think
PAUL MANN Posted January 8, 2011 Report Posted January 8, 2011 a little later would help,poss 2pm after lunch then a relaxing afternoon
SebringRS Posted January 9, 2011 Author Report Posted January 9, 2011 Sounds alright to me 2pm-4pm?? give people time to get there, have a nose round then clear off when there ready to go
SebringRS Posted January 9, 2011 Author Report Posted January 9, 2011 Anyone think making it a Retro car meet, would be a good idea?? Just to pick numbers up a bit dont mind if you don't, but was gunna put it on Retro Rides forum too, as i know theres a fair few on there from round this area Can still put it on, but just as a all Ford meet only But i do like a variety
mexman123 Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 Nahh, leave it for a bit...see how many OSF'ders post on here to say they are up for it first... This will be my first meet since acquiring my car 7 years ago.... Cant wait....
SebringRS Posted January 11, 2011 Author Report Posted January 11, 2011 Got a few people to PM that havent posted on here yet, so that'll bump the numbers up a little more
Justmark Posted January 12, 2011 Report Posted January 12, 2011 i will attend in a fresh built mk1 escort my brother in a fresh built mk3 capri and my mate in a mk3 capri (if we can finish it in time) old skool fords only for us if you open it up to all types of retro cars some may hijack the meet and spoil it i think we need a good regular meet for old fords in the midlands we have enough cars just need to all get together i have spotted 3 new built escorts round my way that i will try and get in touch with as well
SebringRS Posted January 12, 2011 Author Report Posted January 12, 2011 Awesome, will keep it only Ford for now Keep us updated on the numbers you can get from your area mate
