Emily PM'd me yesterday asking when we are having a meet again.

Well i was thinking a main one in December (people come up with ideas) possibly Trafford Center Manchester (parking Free) must be aware a friend had a mitsubishi FTO meet and aparently were moved away, or Liverpool Docks(Depending on parking fees).

Or just a pub/resaurant for meal, drinks and a chat :!:

Due to this being a busy time for many people and fuel costs, road conditions, if this isn't possible a mini meet for local members maybe an idea.

This could happen before/after Sheffield depending on peoples views.

Danny

Surely if you have it before the Sheffield meet, it will put people going to that one.

I think the Sheffield meet is much more important to attend, even though it seems there has been little interest in it on the forums.

It would be a better idea to get more people to attend that one to support the people that run this site, Jody and Sue.

We could always meet before that event for a chat etc and then have drinks and food after.

Just a suggestion though ;)

All being well i shall be going to Sheffield, as long as my driving ban has been lifted before then (Please note not a revoked licence) i can't drive my car legally until the DVLA send out a new V5 so i can tax the car, then apply again for my number plate transfer.

As myself and Danny have offered, i can accommodate 4people and i think Danny 1, for attending sheffield, which should help for local people to save on fuel costs, all club together for fuel then the rest of the money which would have been spent on fuel and tax +VAT, goes to Jody and sues charity STEPS and Jerry's chosen charity Macmillan cancer relief.

I was just wondering if the locals and others wanted another meet in the north west before/after and sheffield.

Such as Emily, James (Jimbo) ,Andy C2, Jerry and other wishing to have one.

Danny
02-11-2005, 06:59 AM
We should be able to take 2 passenger's if they are local as i wouldn't take the lad all that way, he would get bored ;)

musicaldesigner
04-11-2005, 09:30 AM
Well it will have to be saturday/sunday or a friday afternoon for the main meet, unless we arrange for this to be a mini meet for a couple of hours or so. meal/drinks.

All members are welcome even non locals, so come on peeps give me an idea who is interested.

I may even get some C2 t-shirts from citroen for prize who has the cleanest car after the drive and best christmas decorated car. time will be allowed to prepare.

As well as a presentation of champagne/flowers for Emily as congratulation on passing her driving test :!:

roll up roll up need to start arranging if people are interested. if attendees need my number please PM danny and ask for it as i maynot be able to be online for a week or two.

Not from where we were at the time!

BTW I wouldn't recommend Trafford Centre in Dec. Small matter of Christmas shopping tends to make it too busy... ;)

musicaldesigner
04-11-2005, 10:43 AM
Trafford center very true Jerry.

Danny
04-11-2005, 10:44 AM
Yes, agree with Jerry, somewhere away from the big towns/cities to avoid too much traffic! :)

musicaldesigner
04-11-2005, 10:49 AM
Yes, agree with Jerry, somewhere away from the big towns/cities to avoid too much traffic! :)

Shall have a rethink :!: somewhere out in the country. pub/restaurant.

i'll get the map out tonight. you are all welcome to throw up some ideas.

Danny

Somewhere Central would be a good idea, might allow a few new members to attend, we are not fussed...within reason ;)

Excuse my ignorance..... but when is the Sheffield Meet? I haven't been on here for a while and was just catching up and saw this... I would like to attend the Sheffield Meet as well... I live in Sheffield :)

Danny
07-11-2005, 07:43 PM
It's November 26th and it is a charity event too, Sue (the boss's wife) is doing a bungee jump for 2 charities and all members are welcome to take part or just watch if you wish, We may then have drinks and lunch etc ;)

Olly
07-11-2005, 08:01 PM
OK thats cool with me... I'll most deffinetly be one of the people that will be watching as im not good with heights. Hopefully by then I may have new VTS... well fingers crossed.

Where abouts in Sheffield is the Meet?

Danny

please go to: http://www.boundarycommittee.org.uk/your-area/north-west.cfm

which shows a picure of the north west boundary, then try to arrange a venue.

Considering weather conditions we do not want to be too far from the M6 and being the time of year as jerry and danny have suggested and all agreed, we want the meet to be away from busy city's.

I suggest possibly meet up at a service station and go for a drive then onto to a pub for a meal.

If people want to, we could go to the secret bunker at hack green which was suggested at the last meet in cheshire.
http://www.hackgreen.co.uk which may be of interest to some attendees. however this wouldn't be possible until January.

The sheffield meet is the most important meet coming up, so i don't wish to put people off that so if we can arrange a north west meet it shall be in December or in the new year.

If club members in the north west wish to meet up for a mini meet at any time, this can be arranged. PM me to ask for mobile number to arrange.

pete :D :lol:

Danny
17-11-2005, 09:39 AM
Hi Peter, hope things are good while you have been offline?

I am sorry to say, but due to a few problems at home at the minute, i'm not sure i'll be making any meets at all between now and the new year.

I will keep you posted should anything change though.

Danny.

Jeremy_VTR
17-11-2005, 08:04 PM

I'm around mate if you're organising something? You did the last one really well.

Danny

Nothing too serious I hope. Best of luck with it.

Danny
18-11-2005, 05:55 AM
Thanks Jerry :wink:

musicaldesigner
21-11-2005, 11:53 AM
Well i think we shall have to wait until the new year for an official meet, like our last cheshire meet, with christmas and new year coming up, members having to spend time christmas shopping and with family/friends.

However if any members wish to meet up for a drink/meal im sure this can be arranged if we work something out between ourselves.

I am available Monday-Thursday after 3pm, Friday's after 1:30pm and most weekends.

This weekend i am really annoyed that i can't attend sheffield on Saturday :twisted: :twisted: :evil: :evil:

So if you want to have a mini meet please PM me or telephone my mobile those who have it to arrange something :!:

PinkEmily

reebok stadium is just off the m62 and you can easily access the jjb from the m6 both are signposted nicely incase you cant see the big building you are heading for :D

musicaldesigner
02-12-2005, 09:55 AM
Who is available January 7th/8th, 14th/15th as possibly the first meet of the year.

I would have said January 1st, but i suppose many people will either be with family or nursing a hangover :lol:

Give me the best dates you are available and we shall take it from there regarding venue times etc.

Those of you who have my number are welcome to call to discuss and if local a mini meet at the pub etc.

musicaldesigner
08-12-2005, 11:22 AM
No updates as of yet, i want to see who and how many should be available to organise a date, then shall organise and finalise venue.

So please everyone give me idea on availability and venue suggestions.

Bearing in mind after christmas/new year celebrations not somewhere too expensive :!:

It has been suggested before (Hack green secret bunker) or Bowling which had good response.

Delamere forest re-attempt anyone LOL :lol: or Bickerton Hills(walking)/Beeston (castle)

Day in Llandudno (Dual carriage way No Motorway) :lol: :D

Den

Old Trafford?? (god that made me cringe!) or the better stadium in Manchester, The City of Manchester Stadium, hehe.

Anyone else got any suggestions?

Den
09-12-2005, 09:46 PM

PinkEmily
09-12-2005, 10:15 PM

musicaldesigner
12-12-2005, 11:06 AM
I shall be starting a list of attendees and names in Bold for definates as with the last meet, once i know availability so then can arrange date and venue.

Emily you could meet me in Crewe then meet with rest of attendees once we have the main meet up area finalised depending on Venue.

Stoke has a Freeport outlet i think as well as Festival park, Crewe now has a Bowling Venue,
Bowling seemed to have a good response,as stated before if people are interested, Hack green secret bunker re-opens in January.


please keep suggestions coming.
Jimbobeats-Anytime
Musicaldesigner -anytime

I think we should set up a poll:

We shall organise a pub lunch/evening meal whichever is best with regards to time for home.

Jimbo
23-12-2005, 06:22 PM
Count me in still, free every weekend.

Lets follow the BIG signs to Delamere Forest this time round, lol, as Emily said to me, haha.

Jeremy_VTR
23-12-2005, 06:27 PM
Big signs are best. And also remembering the difference between NORTH and SOUTH. Basically M6 J19, turn West towards Chester on A556 and it's about 10 miles or so, just after the A49 crossroads (where there's a Shell petrol station with loos, and a good pub just down the road too...)

Den
23-12-2005, 06:29 PM
how many of us are there gonna be then? im free all day sat 14th or sun 15th after 14:00

Jimbo
23-12-2005, 06:32 PM
Think 7 of us so far have said yes from my counting, 5 C2's and 2 C4's.

If Danny and Rachel are coming then it will be 8 from a rough count atm.

PinkEmily

PinkEmily
23-12-2005, 07:10 PM
well i think either the 14th or 15th maybe? most people seem to be able to go then

Den
23-12-2005, 07:17 PM
i think thats an excellent idea emily....wonder who suggested that before?:P

PinkEmily
23-12-2005, 07:20 PM

musicaldesigner
23-12-2005, 08:49 PM
Hi people just read my text from Emily telling me to get online,so here i am, wow 7-8 people is a jump in a week.

Delamere Forest is the main venue so far. Went for a drive with my fathers mate this afternoon after taking him out for his christmas lunch, We found the forest and its £2 for the car park.(all day)

Who has heard of the Mouldworth motor museum? this is a few miles from the forest. however it doesn't re-open until february which is a downer unless people can hold on for another couple of weeks.

If you all can't wait and still wish to make the Saturday 14th January a final date at the forest for a few hours of meets greets and a walk around the forest Then off for a pub lunch for a warm, this can be arranged!

Please let me know for definates if you are coming and if possible a contact telephone number via PM. for arrangements and organisational purposes.

Remember this is the same format as the cheshire meet a peacefull, NO loud stereo's/ engine revving etc. event.

Lets make this a brilliant and smooth running event. i shall keep checking in when i can over the next couple of weeks. will be back on the 9th regular cos im back in work then LOL

So who is the other C4 please let me know.

Well im off for some shut eye, been drinking all evening.

I hope you all have a lovely happy and safe christmas.

Take care everybody!

23-12-2005, 09:05 PM

Jimbo
23-12-2005, 09:58 PM
Thanks Pete!

So we have 8 people now who have said they will come, possible 9 as my mums Pluriel may make the meet, thats if its still walking wounded from its trip to Citroen in the new year, lol.

Everyone is welcome, lets try and beat the record for the most cars at a C2 Club meet.

Den
24-12-2005, 02:30 AM

C4VTR
31-12-2005, 01:41 PM
wouldn't it be easiest to meet at the car park near the station?

kingpleb
31-12-2005, 02:13 PM
Its ok you'll be there in spirit :)

Im hoping ill have the Alloys done and ready to go on our C2 and maybe use it but it still has a dent in the drivers side rear quarter from where a fire engine caught it :(

Not yet as far as i know.

C4VTR
31-12-2005, 07:42 PM
wouldn't it be easiest to meet at the forestry commision car park near the station, i think it's the actual visitors centre

kingpleb
31-12-2005, 07:50 PM
Not been there too much on my own usually only on group organised walks and stuff and slept in the mini bus from hangovers at like 8am but im sure i can get there if we want to make it there and anyone following me can keep up with me thats cool ;)

Jeremy_VTR
31-12-2005, 08:37 PM
So what's the date and time then?

PinkEmily
31-12-2005, 09:02 PM
ok the date is the 14th january, the time is still yet to be arranged, but if you have a specific time u would like to go let me know. Im going to go have a look tomorrow for where we should meet. but the visitors car park sounds the easiest at this moment in time

kingpleb
01-01-2006, 01:28 PM
I have 3 wheels still to paint for our C2 but not sure if ill be able to come in it or not, plus its a bit slow ;) but should bea good laugh and from the maps ive looked at the visitor centre is easy to get to.

PinkEmily
01-01-2006, 03:25 PM
ok well i went to delamere today and i think the easiest place to meet is the visitors centre as there are so many other car parks there it gets quite confusing.
It was extremely busy today, probably because of it being new years day and it being 3 o'clock when i went. so sooner we get there on the day teh less stressful it will be lol.

01-01-2006, 03:44 PM

Ouch, thats a lot of mileage, think mine might go over the 7000 mile mark at the meet or coming back from it :(

Yeah it should be a good day, just like the last meet, this time actually getting there, lol.

Brilliant be great to see you again Danny and Rachel, have a safe journey.

I now have the route covered, shall be at the forest around 10:15-10:30.

What i should have done was turn right at end of that road then first left. Straight on to forest.

I shall have bluetooth on so can talk whilst driving if any ofyou guys/gals need to contact me.

Well 12 cars including 2 C4's and a Pluriel and a possbile Fiat Coupe, should be a great meet, as good as the last one.

Hope all members attending are looking forward to it, lets all have a good day.

I've been told that car crime has been a problem in that car park, so please make sure you don't leave any valuables on display etc.

See you all tomorrow!

Where are we going for lunch?

Here's The Blue Cap, where we had lunch last time. (http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CW8+2DN&spn=0.005,0.02&hl=en)

Click "To here" then type in "Delamere Forest Vale Royal" for the route from the forest. (The map you get isn't quite the right start point but it's close enough).

I'm not saying we have to go there, it's just a suggestion.

We could go there unless we find something better/different on our journey.

Food wasn't too bad either! :)
