CANCELLED

 

 

PLEASE READ THE LAST POST!

 

 

 

 

 

Start off where we first said for a day out then a little drive and finish the day off somewhere else, this way hopefully more ppl will come, either to the day or to the evening one!

 

Date....... Sunday August 12th

 

Places,

 

Right to start off we'll go with the first venue of The Chafford Hundred pub, say 11ish, then after a spot of lunch and a few :duffer: :duffer: move on to Brighton as the winner of the location poll, hoping to get there for about 4 ish the a spot of dinner maybe a few more :duffer: :duffer: and finish the day up about 8ish or when you lot bugger off

I know there is about 100 miles between Thurrock and Brighton but for me it's a 400 mile round trip from home to Thurrock then to Brighton and then back home again

 

Now we need def numbers simply because i will obviously be around the whole day and i really dont want to be sitting on my own all day.if you can come to one or both then great if you cant then well you cant, And if theres no / not enough interest then i'll cancel it.

 

I need DEF numbers please ppl, i'll try and sort out some personalized stuff as well but i can/will only do this if ppl want it and ppl put there names down.

 

get yer names down below.

This Thread has been up for 3 weeks now and there have been 2 replys? WTF is going on, Everyone wanted a summer party, so i put up a poll for locations which ppl voted on, then a date was set at the winning location and nil interest?

 

there is only 18 days left till this event, and so far there is 1 person for the Brighton run and 1 for the Chafford Hundrad run, As i said in the first post if there is not enough interest then i will just cancel the event! As i said i dont intend to sit in a car park will only 1 other member.

 

rant over!

if my car is well, most defo be there. at the mo its very very ill.

coming back from hols that weekend (12th) if i dont get held up travelling back i'll be along at Brighton...i'm guessing you're gonna be parked up the Maderia drive by Concord Bar / Marina etc?

where is Chafford Hundred ?

Neil

 

Not trying to put a downer on this but the show I have organised is on the 11th.

 

If people want to party and have a few :duffer::duffer::duffer:then they can come on this and camp over.

 

Would be up for something like this at another time however.

 

Darrell

 

PS I also had problems with peolple putting there names down.

Tell me abouth it, ppl wanted a summer party for the Se and they have had one organised, but as i said in my first post if there is not enough interest then i will just scrap it!

 

:headvswal :headvswal :headvswal

 

 

dont want too because i've been looking forward to it but i'm not prepared to sit around with just 1 or 2 other memebrs, i have and i'm sure everyone else has better things to do with there time!

where is Chafford Hundred ?

 

Just by lakeside, in Grays

 

Been a few meets there not a bad size car park and good for the M25 for the trip down to Brighton ;)

 

Neil

Man i want to come!i cant remember exactly how to get to Lakeside though :( Can i have a post code or could we meet at like Stansted Airport at the little Park outside it that every1 always seems to have meets at!Thats where we used to do all the Vectra Meets i used to be apart of :D I will defo Come!If i get the Postcode of course :D

Count me in!

Also am off to USC tomoz if anybody wants to join me!With a few mates of mine in the Super Scoobies :D

Well due to the complete lack of interest this has been cancelled. i have also recieved a PM for copper and he's cancelled his meet on Sat too, again due to the complete lack of interest. I cant beleiver that 2 Big meets have been cacelled because there was combined interest of about 7 pple over the 2 event FFS it dosent matter what is planned it seams you lot cant be bothered to do anything, looks like the weather would have been cracking as well! to say iom disapointed is a massive understatement! I booked the weekend off of work for these events, do any of you realise how hard it is for some like me who run's a pub to get a Friday and Saturday night off of work! it's almost unheard of!

 

 

i really do not know why ppl bother to arrange stuff, even Daves meet at the cherry tree today..... he was by him self! 1 person to a meet!!!!

His name is Chris by the way ;) Not Dave

my Bad, was really tired when i wrote that last night!

I'm a shift worker and often work weekends but I was coming to this as am off that day. I must admit this section does seem to be the worst of the lot to get something organised and getting people to turn up. O well.

Mate not really sure it is entirely the members fault here!

 

1. You can't really organise a poll on where to meet, get a result from a poll and then ignore the poll and chose another venue completely!

 

2. You don't organise a big meeting in the middle of the holiday season, when a lot of peoples finances and attention will be concentrated on their holidays!

 

Reorganise this for the middle to the end of september and I think it will be popular, we have had in excess of 30 cars at Brighton meetings before!

Topless

 

1. the meet is at the poll winning location!

 

2. I asked about date and ppl ummmm and ahhed then alot of ppl said the begining of August, which it is.

 

3. this has thread has been up for over a month, your was post number 17 seven of the post were mine.

 

i rest my case.

Buddy throwing your teddies out of the pram, ain't going to solve it, and isn't going to encourage people to come out to meet you!

 

The date is the main problem for this meet change the date and maybe people can get their hols out of the way and focus on turning up!

I stepped down from Neils post because of this reason, people in the south east do not want to meet up any more. I tried MANY meets that pretty much all failed execpt one, and even then we only got five cars.

 

Changing the date of this will only have the same result in my opinion. Neil has dont a fine job and the date chosen IMHO has had no baring on how many are gonne turn up, people just cant be bothered any more. Shame but thats the truth of it.

I've said it before i think the southeast section is too large and that is the problem because its a such a large area there is always going to be a fair bit of travelling for someone. It needs splitting up into sections

I'm a shift worker and often work weekends but I was coming to this as am off that day. I must admit this section does seem to be the worst of the lot to get something organised and getting people to turn up. O well.

 

So are we going to have a local meet of some sort instead.

 

I am now available as well.

 

How about we go over to darksides pub ?

 

Just a suggestion to show our REO that we still love him.

 

Come on guys lets have some names.

 

1. Darrell and Karen

Come on over to the pub, parking is a nightmare here as well dont have our own car park, just a freebie across the road, so you can imagine that it get full quickly with all the shop workers really early.

 

let me have a think and see who interested and try and sort out something cenral to everyone.

 

Neil

When is the pub meet and can i have a postcode and if its at the weekend you can have me there as company :D hehe

 

Keep your chin up lads meets will happen!Patience My dear XD

Post code for my place is PE13 1BL, but as i said i have no carpark, althought there is a nice pub called the Chequers in sutton on the Isle, I think there is also a Pub at the Barhill Exit on the M11, but not too sure of car parks and stuff. The alturnative is the Chaffod Hundrad pub, loads of parking and the car park is not normally busy, we've had a few meets there.
