[ritch_w]

if you let us know how/where/when i'm sure one of us will chauffer you about!!

[Kenneth]

if you let us know how/where/when i'm sure one of us will chauffer you about!!

Thanks :thumbsup:

Will keep you posted

[Big Ian]

" :thumbsup: Nice one Kenneth, hope you can make it :happy: "


just a wee note:
we are not going as a "club stand" to above event's only going along for a meet/natter :thumbsup:

7th Aug
Ritch if you know of a good meet point between Glasgow and you, can you post it up?
ive been thinking maybe Beith (area) for the folk going from Glasgow end?..also i'm away from Monday 25th till the following Tuesday (8 day's)

as for the 28th Aug, we can talk on the 7th :thumbsup:

[Kenneth]

Ok, its 99% settled now as I have a very probable "business meeting" in Scottland which I am trying to arrange for eithier the 7th or the 8th.

Don't know anything about how to get around Scottland though... lol
A contact number might be a good idea so someone can rescue me when I arrive.

Will likely have 1 or 2 friends with me though, so be warned.

If someone could give me what time I should try be there, that would be useful too :)

/edit
lol, im a bit overwhelemed with all the stuff I am doing on my first trip outta NZ... so am keen to have as much direction as possible

[Kenneth]

Will definatly (unless I die or something... not a lot I can do about that) be there on the 7th.

I plan on being there reasonably early but this depends on transport arrangements. I suspect that I will be traveling Easyjet or something and will be traveling with 1 other, possibly 2.

Ritchie has made me aware of 2 airports in Glasgow, I don't suppose I will be sure which I am arriving at until I am getting the tickets (unless there is some other way to know... easyjet just lists Glasgow once)

Any contact numbers would be nice, especially of anyone willing to chauffer us about :thumbsup:

Look forward to meeting you and having a gabble and possibly a :chugchug:

[Legnum Lad VR4]

so whos ging to this

just 4 of us

i mean on the 28th :D lol

[ritch_w]

So is this all thats going on sunday?

& Kenneth from NZ!!!!

Anyone else? Louis? Shooter? H7? Dunley? anyone else in scotland???

I'm going away for a few days (back on Sat 6th) so will be offline.
Lets arrange a meeting point in Beith? Axeboy - any suitable places to meet that you can think of????

[Axeboy]

Ive sold my house, im now in Bridge of Weir.

We could meet up at the cafe place halfway between beith and dalry... its a tad expensive, but a possible starting point.

Good call!! :thumbsup:

Its called "Graze"
directions - head from Beith towards Dalry, about 1.5 miles out of Beith, there are a couple of houses on either side of the road just before an "S" bend.
Graze is on the right just after you exit the "S" bend. (it used to be a petrol station a few years ago!)

I suppose a meeting time will depend on Kenneths flights and someone picking him up :thumbsup:

[Kenneth]

What time is the show? Been looking at flights and may not be able to get to Scotland till later in the day.

Still have not got anyones contact details, so have no idea how to meet up or where to go???

time online is brief at the moment as am on mega slow computer that is most frustrating to use.

07776042462 is my UK mobile phone number

[Big Ian]

:thumbsup: ELLO..........i'm back :drummer:
Kenneth: can you give a time you'll be at the Airport? i'm not sure about the show time.....but don't worry to much about that :rolleyes4 ?...as your coming here on work/buisness to? i'm sure some of us would still make the time to say hello (atleast /yes )
i can get you from Glasgow airport no prob's :thumbsup:...if you can put-up with GLS comfort's? (don't think my wife and kid's are going now anyway)
just stick up a time and maybe a flight number. and i'll also try help you with some off your traveling to your B&B/Lodging's (if you have anywhere sorted yet)

[Roadrunner]

Anyone else? Louis? Shooter? H7? anyone else in scotland???

Can't make it, I'm afraid, golfing in Galashiels (local golf society outing). Have fun without me ;) sounds like a great day :)

[Louis]

HI Folks,
I go to this (Eglington Park car show) every year (work permiting) so all going well I will see you there somewhere, cheers Louis

[strangebat]

BU&&ER, sorry been a bit distracted recently and just found this :embarasse . I had callander in the diary anyway but will see what I can do for this sunday. think I might be working though :sad3: :sad3: :sad3:

[Kenneth]

Sorry guys, bad news :(

I can't make sunday... To get to Scotland on sunday would require 2 flights with probhibitave costs. I was not counting on thestag party being a stag weekend and finishing midday sunday.

Gutted to miss the sunday meet and show.

If anyone wants to meet on monday or tuesday I would be keen on meeting up.

This is my itinerary for Scotland
Arrive: Monday 7:50am Prestwic Glasgow
Depart: Wednesday 10th August 8:15am

[Louis]

Hi Folks,
I'm just back from the Eglington Park (Kilwinning) car show, I hadn't been on line for a few days so didn't know who was going, but I didn't meet anyone, I did see a burgundy / wine coloured VR4 leaving as I was coming back to the car park, who were you??. I was the trigger Legnum.
The show was quite good, I always meet a lot of people I know from rod and custom scene, goos to catch up.
Anyhoo, car of the show for me was a Vauxhall Viva, a real ratrod, black an rusty, just how I prefer them, some nice shiney stuff too, So sorry I missed you whoever you are, a couple of pics below (from phone, excuse quality), cheers Louis

[ritch_w]

i was working in newcastle :embarasse

[Big Ian]

b. if my mate gets out tof hospital this week i'll need visit him at his house (he managed to blow himself up, along with his shed, half his 6ft fence, a tree and melted his neighbours uPVC cladding - 40ft away!!!)

will be driving a pug 406 diesel lowered on 17's with loud sounds

[Big Ian]

:thumbsup: i'll be there with my family in my own car.... :embarasse not a VR4 though, also my mate is following me with his Galant estate..... :inquisiti still not a VR4!.... Louis might be there and he has a Legnum VR4 /yes and strangebat may make it along and he also has a Legnum VR4 :drummer: so it's kinda 50/50 if you'll see a VR4 :rolleyes4 (but you will see a saloon GLS and a 2ltr Estate sport)

Gates open at 10pm for visitor's and ive heard they have put up the gate money! £5 a head and £2 for under 12's.
remember this is a 2 day show, but the saturday is "DEAD" as they run a tour for the owner's to take their car's on (round Loch Lomond, etc)
