[Spirit]

Anyone else see Derek's little comment ?

"I see us south yorkshire/north midlanders can arrange a regular meet !! but you southern/northerners only seem to talk about it ?? ah well !!! "

You gonna sit back and take that ? LOL

Right, let's get too it and arrange a southern meet. I reckon Swindon sounds a good start and I have made a list of a few people who are in a reasonable distance for this. The list is not comprehensive so sorry if I missed you, just get your name and location down here.

Spirit979 - Plymouth
Richieelliott - Cornwall
Brind - Pompey
Jaysback - Swindon
Simon - Wiltshire
Bonsai Boy - Berks
Paul - Berks
ITMatt - Twickenham
Supaflea Guy - Bristol
Stevie.c - Bracknell
ReggieK - Bracknell
Legnum Boy & Banjo - Herts INSERT INTO post VALUES (too far ??)
Landy - Powys INSERT INTO post VALUES (too far ??)

It's 2 hrs for me, but I am sure we have enough here to make this a decent event, and we could even arrange somewhere slightly more interesting than Ikea

So, who's up for it ?

[SGHOM]

It's only been posted for 16 mins before your reply mate - and I agree there is nothing wrong with Ikea....on a Sunday.....in January......in the rain....oh, what am I saying, it's sh1t ! LOL I thought we could go more upmarket and meet at B+Q or something so we can play with the drills and pretend to be secret agents.....lol

[Nick Mann]

At the risk of having a boot in both camps, I could make Swindon. Lets see if the north midlanders lynch me now today!

[Spirit]

You are more than welcome Nick

[enigma]

So far Pete the only response you have is from a 'north midlander' Hmmmm says something about the Southern Softie Shandy Drinkers :lolz:

[Spirit]

You may be right but I doubt it - it's just that it's Sunday and they are either still in bed or leading a normal life I guess....not like us "must post" freaks LOL !

[zedy1]

theres not many people round my end i suppose ill have to join up with dave, kieran, and derek or maybe just have a meet behind my house theres still three vr4s

[venomboy]

In years gone by I would be there no probs, but six month old, means trips limited to 1 bottles worth before she gets really cranky, plus wife sleeping off effects of MY birthday bash, so just me, baby, teletubbies and this old computer for company.

ps anyone near Leeds?

[Brind]

They sell Lava lamps in Asda at the moment, reduced in price too.. my mum bought one.

I'm busy as hell at the moment but depending on where and when I'll see what I can do.

[SGHOM]

& to prove us 'northeners' have what it takes !! If you arrange a meet in Swindon, I might pop down !!!! :cool1:

gotta go now..........IKEA awaits !

[venomboy]

sorry brind I'm a bit confused, what was that last post in reference to?
or was it just a stream of conciousness?
VB
ok, I've just reread it and it's beginning to make some sense, maybe it's just me.

[Brind]

Sorry I took too long to send, and you hadn't said anything at the time so I was talking in general about Swindon.

[venomboy]

Thanks, Oh the fun and confusion engendered by post lag!

[Spirit]

Derek you would be welcome anytime mate - Mark, you will be there - you know you will !

[enigma]

Hell if Derek can make it.....then so can I! so thats 3 northerners and one southerner

hehehehehehehehe!

[Spirit]

C'mon guys, these chaps are putting you to shame....sure it will be sorted once they come online INSERT INTO post VALUES (he hopes)

[Brind]

Buggeroff you two to IKEA :$ :$

[adam_shaw]

I'm a southerner, and proud of it. I've even been known to drink a shandy!

Swindon is OK for me, sundays are better than saturdays generally speaking. But if a date is set, if I'm around I'll be up for it.

BTW, at the moment I am well south of the lot of you, working in Tel-Aviv for the next two weeks, 17 degrees, dinner by the med, _really_ safe public transport

Anyhoo, there you go, lets see if anyone else throws their hand up.

Adam

Thanks Adam - I agree a Sunday would probably be best too. Have fun in Tel-Aviv
