Hi guys Anyone up for a meet in Northampton or Milton Keynes area, end of this month or beginning of next. Thought maybe a Sunday, and then make it a regular monthly meet, could maybe alternate venues each month, if we find a family pub theres no excuse you can bring the family. There doesn't seem to be much going on in this neck of the woods, so would be good to meet a few of you, for a chat etc. Any suggestions welcome re venue or dates Mick

Mick
Lets give this a try-as I said, we had MK meets last year but they dwindled off due to lack of attendance and Johns been on at me about sorting something more regular. Olney would be good but venue's difficult. John and I talked about one of the boozers at Stoke Bruerne. Am more than up for this and should have apologised for last weekend but a very dodgy alarm problem leaves the car unlocking itself or immobiliser cutting in unexpectedly. ------------- Gentlemen I may not have a brain but I do have an idea Past; E39 540T/E46 328CI/ E39 535/ E39 520/ E36 M3/ E36 318iS jet black Mtech/ E46 320d/ E36 318iS diamond black/ E36 318iS blue Mtech kit |

John No probs last weekend, I have the same problem with my alarm, took to locking it with key for a while. Stoke Bruerne is ok but can get very busy, tried to get in there a few Sundays ago and it was packed. There is the Greyhound at Milton Malsor, the car park there is quite big, open to suggestions on this, as we said before maybe alternate venue so travelling is varied for everyone, and it would be good to try to have a regular monthly meet, I don't mind travelling a bit further a field if needed.

Doh! Forgot about that, what about the week before or the week after? 17th or the 31st, then make it the same weekend every month. I'm going to have a look round for a venue, this week so need a rough idea of numbers. Who's interested?

From Rugby? I'd say come down M1, off at J14, turn right and someone might be able to meet you at the park n ride just off the M1 and lead you in?
I can come down that way if it helps. ------------- Gentlemen I may not have a brain but I do have an idea Past; E39 540T/E46 328CI/ E39 535/ E39 520/ E36 M3/ E36 318iS jet black Mtech/ E46 320d/ E36 318iS diamond black/ E36 318iS blue Mtech kit |
