FOC MEETS: JANUARY 17TH AND 31ST 2010

Featured Replies

Of course, entirely scientific!!! I wondered what all the hype was about the Mountune pack, now i know by just hearing it!!

This meet and the last paves a nice path to further meets. Watford Gap and surrounding areas seems like a very good spot, not too far away from anyone (obviously not everyone!)

I will be on the case to arrange another quite soon...........

Excellent, I'd be up for another meet - hopefully with some more people next time.

You'll need to let me know well in advance though as I need to save up for a few weeks to afford the coffee! :lol:

The business lounge was made for us classy people!! The trip wasn't bad at all to be honest, i was expecting it to be a right chore but it was only an hour and a half, i can manage that every so often! I will have a think about the next meet and shall post something up in the near future. Hopefully now we've actually got a couple under our belt it will be a little more popular next time! :D

Looks like a good afternoon was had :D

Glad you all enjoyed it....I just spent the afternoon detailing. Fun, but not quite as fun as meeting some other members I should think. I'm defninitely up for a meet when I get my license!

it was cleaned 2 weeks ago get a bit lazy in the winter. jonny did not show lol

Jonny was a no show unfortuately, no idea why. It was still very good though! The Matiz wanted in on the action, phwoar i don't think it would be accepted, way too cool for us!

Rest assured I will spend tomorrow evening beating myself with a belt with some nails in, butt naked covered in detol whilst reciting psalms from hot / okay / fashion weekly for women type magazines for added torture.

No excuses (well except for the work related one) I will book a month off (almost) for the next meet to ensure I don't miss another.

Apologies once again! Good effort tho chaps nice piccies. Meets are gathering momentum now!! :)

No worries Miles :) It is good they are gathering momentum, hopefully for the next one there will be a few more familiar faces!

Good to see another meet take place.

Finding it hard to organise one north of the border, should have a bug meet up in the summer sort of mid way ;)

Sounds like a plan my friend! It would be very good to do something and get the Scots involves, they're quite a few of you!!

Sorry I missed the meet guys I really wanted to be at this one. Hangover was massive, wasn't up for driving till at least 6pm :(

All this goes to show that we can do meets though, so this is good....

Maybe we should do another at end of Feb?

Shame the parking was a bit tight this time, maybe we should look for other locations?

Anyway, the whole point of these meets was to establish a list of people who will actually attend, so here we go:

DanGull

Jonny87

Coysht

S Spec

AndrewL

MichealP

Going forward then. The above 6 need to agree a new meet date and location.

I have no idea of possable dates yet, but a new location should be central and close to the M1... any ideas people?

Anywhere around/near Watford Gap services is fine with me, seems like a good location.

I think the only reason parking was so tight this time was that there was an accident just past the services so people were giving up and coming into the services, but if there are any pubs around there then i'm up for that.

there is another place to meet 2 actually 1 is at the A5 junc about a mile up at the truckstop cafe etc open 24hrs cheaper food and drink http://www.transportcafe.co.uk/night_owl_rugby.html.and the other 1 i was going t suggest is closed until 16:00 hrs on sunday..

^^^looks promising. I love the soundtrack on that truckstop site, do they play that music inside the truckstop? do all the truckers dance to it? This I have got to see! :lol::lol::lol::lol:

If there is another one I'll try my hardest to attend... these meets look like a good time.

Id love to come to a meet but always too far away from me and always seem to be on a sunday and im always working lol!

Wish I had gone now and added to the collection of Dressed Up Titaniums . . . . .

(PS Saving up for the Mountune kit now too - lol)

I hope that one day a meet is conveniently timed to fall on a day when I'm driving between London and Leeds so I don't have to go miles out of my way for it!

Yay! I'm glad the second meet was a success too chaps, I have to apologise for my lack of communication re: the meet. Had a pretty rubbish couple of weeks, family drama's etc that I won't get into, but I had to take a step back from the forum to sort some stuff out.

How weird is the new layout by the way, thought I'd logged onto the wrong site!! Was I gone that long!?
