General: - North West meet with other clubs

shimon340 · Nov 8th, 2007, 02:22

Hello

Following discussion of a potential meet of North West members in

http://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showth...328#post315328

I'm copying an invite I posted there for Northern members to a volvo300mania meet in the peak district which is still in the planning stages but will be one of the following Sundays.

9th, 16th, 23rd,30th or 6th of January.

People mentioned trying a first North West VOC meet and this should be a nice day out in the peaks.

The Volvo 480 club Europe and C30 World clubs are also invited as are turbo bricks.

Would be great to see you there and put some faces to posts/ cars!

I'll update this post once dates are sorted

all volvos welcome of course!!

Sounds like a great idea for a meet.

The Peak District is Britain's oldest, largest and busiest National Park. It is sometimes known as "The Lungs of Britain" since its catchment area covers most most of Britain's major cities (i.e. Liverpool, Manchester, Sheffield and Birmingham). It covers most of Northern Derbyshire and part of Staffordhire.

LOL No!!
Anywhere North of Birmingham is the 'North' to me, be it West or East!!

Mind you, when I lived on the south coast, anywhere north of the Thames was the 'North', and anywhere west of the A3 was bandit country!!

Anywhere south of Gretna is England and that`s south to me. Peak district is a beautiful area which is well worth the visit.
