poohbear Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 I decided to make another topic as the other one seems to have been abandoned. Is the meet still going ahead on the SUNDAY 31ST MAY 2009? What about the place? It's going to be difficult to get everyone to one place so why don't we have 2? We could have them on seperate weekends and then people could choose the one they wanted to go to or the one that is nearest to them. People who are especially keen could go to both!? I'm from Northampton so obviously that is good for me, maybe we could meet at Silverstone or something? Or Leicester area? Suggestions people?!

Plus i mentioned in the last topic that maybe people might be interested in a mini meet at South Mimms SS, then the people who are going to the main meet further up north could travel in convoy from there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichellefromEssex Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 Me for the mini meet at south mimms definately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonny87 Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 Nice one Michelle. Maybe we can all start making a list of People that are going to either or both, but maybe we need to confirm the other location first... Im not bothered where it is tho as long as the location is good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poohbear Posted April 5, 2009 Author Share Posted April 5, 2009 Ok, I will email Silverstone tomorrow, would people be happy with that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonny87 Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 thats good for me. why do you need to email them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAR897 Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 I'm good with the date, as I should have Marty (name of my car) by then! As for the location, Donnington seemed a favorite amongst users, as it is pretty central. As I said before maybe a Poll should be created by an Admin and the votes counted at a given time - The most popular meeting place wins!? Either way, I'm defo up for meeting all you lovely people and your equally lovely cars! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonny87 Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 maybe a poll would be for the best... Anyone know how to start a poll, coz i dont know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAR897 Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 I think the form limits it to be done only by Admins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonny87 Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 what would the poll options be? Just Donnington and Silverstone, or other places too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAR897 Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 They are the only two I can think of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poohbear Posted April 5, 2009 Author Share Posted April 5, 2009 Yes, a poll would be good. Can anyone start one? Purleeeasseeee? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonny87 Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 apparantly only mods or admins can start a poll so i may send a pm to one, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonny87 Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 its coz nobody knows how to do them, if i knew then i would do one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nipz Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 its coz nobody knows how to do them, if i knew then i would do one There are options which come with IP. Board which seam to have been taken out where Post Options are to make the Poll. Also there are normally options to upload attachments etc which seam to have been taken out. I only know this because i run a website which uses IP. Board as well. So the only reason no body knows how is because the options have been taken away :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonny87 Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 just noticed that it is possible to make a poll in the general forum, but not the model specific forums. A bit odd. We may have to post the poll in a general forum and point people to it from here... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonny87 Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Sorry guys, just realised that the poll is infact already up and running over in the general boards. under general ford discussion. see http://www.fordownersclub.com/forums/index...?showtopic=4699 vote away folks!

JAR897 Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 No track I don't think... They are preping the track now so very unlikely. Would cost a bomb too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
