Northwest Meetings (Just an Idea)

vinnythepainter · 3rd July 2011, 08:21

Hi all,
I'm new here and been fumbling around the site for quite a while,

Looking at the places or locations for any meets mentioned in the earlier posts.

I'd be more than happy to attend any meets within a 20-mile radius, say the first or last Sunday of the month. So on the: “North West Members Locations” lets all have a look at the map and see if there is any where we could meet up.

I’m all for putting a pin in the middle of the map and finding some where near that area, then maybe the following month move out from the centre of the map and keep moving it round like that.
(In a clock or anti-clock wise direction)

Whichever way you want, lol

I have just had a look at the map and “I lost count” but there are about 60 or 70 members between Preston and Stoke going North to South and Colwyn Bay to just the other side of Manchester going West to East. I know there are more members outside the aera I mentioned
(so don't lynch me)

Or if there is something going on near you where we could meet up and have a chat about our cars, once you got bored of that (hahahaha) you could have a look at whatever is on offer @ the event.

That way we should all get a meeting near us sooner or later.

What do the other members think about this
“Can we make it happen”?

It’s just an idea !!!

Hi All,

I'd be happy to offer my workshop as a meeting place, also happy to put a couple of cars up on the ramp if anyone wants to have a good look underneath?

This is a good idea, and Darwen is kind of central I guess as it's not too far from Bolton, Manchester or Preston.
