4parajon Posted September 28, 2006 Report Posted September 28, 2006 Obviously this is open to anyone who wants to come but the regular lads at the meet have been talking about this for a while now, here are some dates, so let's have some feedback on who can/cannot make it. The suggested area is the Lake District, I'm sure most of us have been there and know some good roads but it might be worth leaving the route planning up to someone who lives there or has been there very recently, if for no other reason than roadworks and speed camera location's.....not that we will be speeding....obviously. 15/10/06 22/10/06 29/10/06 12/11/06 State your name and your preferred dates
Admin Mk2Jo Posted September 28, 2006 Admin Report Posted September 28, 2006 Ooh, if only we lived more local
4parajon Posted September 28, 2006 Author Report Posted September 28, 2006 That's no excuse Jo, you could make a weekend of it in the Lakes
ZetecVan 2.0 Posted September 28, 2006 Report Posted September 28, 2006 I reckon I could make any of the october dates, but not November the Fifth.. Small children, firewords and bonfires are a priority.

capritech Posted September 29, 2006 Report Posted September 29, 2006 How about a meet at Pennington flash where Andy270 used to hold the northern meet and have it on a weekend and see if Retroford mag would come up and cover it.Posted it on Manchester site and a few are up for it!
Dick Dastardley Posted September 29, 2006 Report Posted September 29, 2006 I should be able to make the October dates DD
ZetecVan 2.0 Posted September 29, 2006 Report Posted September 29, 2006 How about a meet at Pennington flash Where's that? EDIT: Just Googled it. I've been to Leigh, so I should be able to find it.
Slik 50 Posted September 30, 2006 Report Posted September 30, 2006 The lakes would be an awsome day out. I will be able to make any date and would be up for it. Same old though, Is it strictly "old skool", and would i push anyones nose out if I turned up in the sierra? Would it be just a normall turn up at car park type meet or could we make it more of a day out and do something like potholeing, steam train rides, aqurium, small BBQ, OSF Pub lunch, ride out on the lake on a steam ferry? I know funds may be tight for most of us and fuelling a trip to the lakes would be a task in its self but it seems a shame if only ten or so cars turn up not to through in a little bit of entertainment to make the day more enjoyable and a bit of a laff! If your intrested I can look into things going on and prices if you wish!
ZetecVan 2.0 Posted September 30, 2006 Report Posted September 30, 2006 Years ago when the anglia owners club arranged a trip to the lakes we went to the Cars of the Stars museum in Keswick and then to the boat museum by lake Windemere. Had pub lunch somewhere, drove around for a bit, then came back...!
antz Posted September 30, 2006 Report Posted September 30, 2006 a trip to the lakes we went to the Cars of the Stars museum in Keswick thats a fabulous place!!!!
Slik 50 Posted September 30, 2006 Report Posted September 30, 2006 Well lets do it Sounds like a top day out to me
mk1mexico Posted September 30, 2006 Report Posted September 30, 2006 Iv never been, although his collection was on EBAY last week starting at £400,000
4parajon Posted October 1, 2006 Author Report Posted October 1, 2006 Iv never been, although his collection was on EBAY last week starting at £400,000 Does that mean it's not worth going then Malcolm Wilson's place is up there as well is'nt it??? I think he does tours but I think you have to book in first
mk1mexico Posted October 1, 2006 Report Posted October 1, 2006 malcolm wilsons is a bit further up a little too far i think. Havent heard anything else about the museum i shall keep an ear open
Dick Dastardley Posted October 5, 2006 Report Posted October 5, 2006 Anyone know if this lakes trip is going to happen and when? Hopefully the end of October would be good
4parajon Posted October 7, 2006 Author Report Posted October 7, 2006 Right c'mon you lot this has been up long enough, there's dates on the first post, if your up for this, post the dates you can make so we can get this thing organized.....or we'll be doing it xmas at this rate!!
Slik 50 Posted October 7, 2006 Report Posted October 7, 2006 15/10/06 22/10/06 29/10/06 12/11/06 All good for me if no one minds the sierra
