well me and Rob (Rob's Lexx) have been talking and was on about meeting up as he is from leicester aswell as me. but we both also said be nice to have another midlands meet as last 1 was raining and now the weather is getting better. Also alot of us are doing more things to are cars and more people are asking questions how people done stuff, so would be ideal time, so can nick each others idea's lol, as the show season is nearly here. I have not thought about places we could go to meet up. But i thought the pub last time was nice and had that area we could all park up next to each other. but was also thinkin we could do a big photo shoot aswell.
What does every 1 else think

only problem with an evening is for some of us that wont work with the distance we have to travel, i finish work at 5.30 buy the time i have argued with traffic to get there it would be about half 7 - 8 pm then the drive back down south.
not saying its not a good point i do agree an evening would be great. maybe we could combine it make a day doing it
mid afternoon/evening at the weekend ......
just a thought

yea, whichever suits most matey.
i remember a meet at plank and leggit late one friday evening (think kazi wen to that and some other si don't recall now) and that was a wicked evening. but an afternoon and evening meet would be a good laugh - could get the pub involved so maybe they can cordon an area of the car park off and have our cars laid out in a show like arrangement for people to look at?? we did that before with Ultrajap and it was a great event and got loads of interest.....
just summit different and may make people travel from further afield to attend??
