OK I hope this isnt the wrong section to post this but I didnt want to keep it to one area. I also hope any REO dosent mind me doing this.....

 

I have had a chat with Spongey and we thought we could possibly arrange a day outing for anyone interested in or around hearts beds or bucks. Just Sunday really as an alternative for those that like me have booked the weekend off for Billing. (although I have an hospital appointment on saturday). I must say at this point "Thanks to Steve" :bow: for the polite and concise notice of the cancellation of Billing. Its such a shame as it was looking like it was going to be great. :cry:

 

Anyway if anyone has any local ideas for a days meet on Sunday 15th July then please post them up here. Obviously it would be nice to gauge some interest on this idea and see if it would be worth organising?

I thought that Grafham waters would make a fairly decent place. It has two very large car parks both hosting a cafeteria and both have nice nature walks and splendid views of the waters. It might prove a bit boring but its open space so you can have a fag and a coffee with some grub and it will give us time to chat and take a closer look at each others cars. rather than just turn up have a pint and fook off. :D

 

Please feel free to suggest something.

 

Vini :cool:

Agreed as going by the replys on the cancellation post some people have allready made plans, flights, boats, weekends booked off work so trying to make some light out of the bad news really.

 

The only other place I can think of is Milton keynes Xscape, Its very easy to get to from J14 and is signposted every turn you take. Huge car parks and the actual Xscape has bowling, cinema, food (fast and sit down) pubs and of course the dry ski course.

 

Have a good meet outside while the weather permits then inside for either a meal or a old vs young bowling match :rofl:

Ok, this might sound daft but does this mean that billing has been cancelled????

I havent been able to pay my subscriptions yet :cry: so i've not heard anythig about it!

There is a bike show on in my village.

 

http://www.freewebs.com/greatoffleybikeshow/

 

It is usually a great weekend but is mainly based on the saturday. There are live bands, foodstalls beer etc.

 

Have a look at the show information in my sig as there is a link to a map etc. on how to get here.

 

Just another alternative for people. Granted they aren't cars but they are the next best thing.

I can see that statement going down really well with those who have booked flights and hotels????

Well the rain seems to have stopped at this end of the world now, any chance it could be back on if it stays dry and sunny?

I have just been on the site and it says this weekends events are still on but its very wet??????

maybe not but its not like any one could have foreseen this happening, is there not soemthing we can do to compensate in some way, they can still come over meet up wioth guys and have a good time.

 

I wasnt bein g stroppy, its just the rain and flooding has affected a lot of people around where i live and unfortunately apart from pray to the big guy to resolve it, there is little that can be don e!

Sarah, some of us know you are from an area that was badly hit and we all feel sorry for those affected.

However the point being made in this thread is that maybe the decision to cancel was flawed or at the very least premature.

It appears that the decision was made by a few people on the Zclub committee. The site owners of Billing DID NOT CANCEL the event.

I have just enquired this morning to the office at Billing to ask if I could come and camp this weekend and was told it would be OK but busy due to car club events!!. LOL :rofl:

 

so maybe we could have a " Bootleg Billing" event ourselves???????? on Sunday??
