We have tried to arrange several meets in the time that I have been a member of this forum - and to my knowledge none have happened.

So - here's your chance to have input into when the next meet is arranged for. A quick discussion this evening lead to most people saying that a Sunday was best all round.

Please vote. You don't need to post which one you've voted for. Whichever wins, will be the next meet date.

Inevitably there will be no date that EVERYONE can make, so if you can't come on the date that is eventually picked - sorry, and see you at the next one!

All users of FOC welcome.

VOTING CLOSES: Sunday September 13th @ 9pm

    I'm easy (no comment) so stick my vote anywhere which is popular :D

    as far away as reasonable, gives people lots of time to 1. get their cars, 2. make sure nothing in the diary, and 3. a Sunday so not much happens those days and most people will have the day off work

    I could do pretty much any Sunday, and would LOVE to go to a proper meet. Is anyone really good at photography that could go around taking pictures of all our cars??

  • Quote

    good idea, be great for some good pics, otherwise go with whoever has best camera, ive got a 8.1 megapixel one

  • Quote

    I could do any of those at the moment - I guess it'll come down to where the meet is for me as being right down on the south coast it could be quite a drive if we go for mid-country.

    Would love to see everyones cars tho and I am sure you would all love to meet me after the amount of posts I have made! LOL

    Paul - the venue that was chosen for today's aborted meet seems to be suitable for this one - I know it's a really long way for you, but it's pretty central to everyone...

    Where is the Venue?

    Where is the Venue?

    I already did - that's another reason why all the dates are Sundays...I figured this might be a day off for most people.

    I've no idea when I'll get my car, but it's not going to be before November, so I've voted the last date in Nov, to make sure I get my car by then.

    A meet would be interesting, if only to get some great pics of all the cars lined up together! :lol:

    Well yes. The estimated date is the start of Nov, so it can slip 3 weeks and I'll still have the car on time... just :P .
