Hello everybody. Thankyou to you all for showing an interest. Have now decided to go ahead and start to make some proper plans, get my arse into gear and do it. Don't know if its gonna be any good or not and please bear in mind that i have never done this before so i don't know what is expected of me,but gonna try anyway. obviously it won't be too big as it is only a local thing , but am hoping word of mouth will spread. so check back in a day or 2 and i should have something a bit more concrete for you all.
Thanks all again. Any Q's just message me as i check in a couple of times a day.

Leed's aint that far for me, if the dates are good and money's good I might have a pop down. Will keep checking back, if you can get me a postcode that will help me workout which B&Q your heading to or whereever the meet takes place.

Talking Leeds meet.

How does sunday the 15TH of march sound to everyone, this is not cast in stone but is more like a starting block to see how many people would be available. Thinking 18.30 for the time.( After the shops have closed) The place is really easy to get to, and it also has a burger king( woo whoo)
Anyway , the postcode is LS11 0BD. Just off j1 of the m621.
Hope to get some feedback from you all soon.
Cheers...John T aka, Bubba.

You also have the fact that the m621 is a motorway - slight problem for mopeds, they aren't allowed!

6:30pm seems a bit late in the day for a meet seeing as how its still getting dark at 5:30 ish - not trying to upset anyone but maybe a bit earlier would be good so we can have a good nosey at everyones cars?

Steve - just because I'm round like a burger does not mean I enjoy them! However I would take BK over KFC any day!

Yeh, surely theres another way to the B&Q other than the motorway anyway...?

Seconded - 6:30 sounds a bit too late. Itll be just about dark and we cant see each others volvos then!

Im not meaning because you're round like a burger Andrew! Im just reminding you of last time! The look on your face whilst eating that burger in KFC was hillarious!! Thats why I say "you'll love the sound of KFC" (sarcastic!)

I'm working all day in the Midlands that day so it's not ideal but if others can make it, don't re-arrange on my behalf. I can always come to the next one...

Ok so sunday 18.30 might not be good for most, How about meeting, same place, sunday,1400. Then there is a bit more daylight. I can put back what i was doing ( sunday roast ,Mmmm,) and have a burger instead. Hope this suits better, if not i will try again...
Still hope to see you all there.
