Should be a good meet as there seems to be a few people from Northeast, there just hiding away ;-)

Tonto · 11:th-Jan-2016, 16:51:29

No haha I mean, to be honest I want everyone to come and turn up as I've not met anyone yet in person. Yes we are trying to organise a club stand for PVS!!

My first meet I ever organised was 3 cars - think the biggest I had was 30ish - its hard work but great when you see a region grow

It's prob going to be Feb now before I can do a meet - Saturday's are good or even a Sunday.

Tonto · 11:th-Jan-2016, 17:05:31

Well I'm off the week beginning 15th of Feb so that would be best for me!

there's Scotch Corner or Teeside Park - spoke to my mate who used to be RO for AOC for North East and he said they are both good places.

Right best place I can find is near Darlington just off A1.

I used to go there along time ago when I was part of Vauxhall sports car club.

The Dog Inn
Cross Lane Ends
Heighington
Darlington
DL2 2TX

What you think?

**sheppy1** · 13:th-Jan-2016, 22:36:10

110 miles each way from my house!!! hope the drive there is nice! HAHA

Tonto · 13:th-Jan-2016, 23:01:04

Sounds like a plan to me! So next up why time is best for everyone? 12.00 so we can grab lunch and a pint (shandy).

Balls the wife's working that weekend so I won't be making the 51/2hr trip sorry guys would of been good to meet/see you all.

Northampton is annoying all the sodding roundabouts on the way in and I did live there for 2yrs.

**Hev** · 14:th-Jan-2016, 14:43:43

Yeah 12 is good. You putting it on Facebook page?

Who's going so far:-

1. Tonto
2. Hev & Stu

Also just to forewarn my 7 year old little petrolhead/chatterbox will be coming too
