It's that time again, Cabby's will be leaving the winter nests and there is an appetite for a meet.

Sunday's tend to work best so we've opted for 1 April 2012. Kick off is usually around 1pm, allowing time to shake off the hangover.

Given it'll probably be raining, suggest we go for a free multi-storey car park we won't fill up and we can find a quietish corner in.

This thread is simply to suggest venues.

Pete - There was a meet in St Andrews last year where only Jake, gnrsoul and I turned up and it was not pleasant outside, even though the sky was blue so can we stick to Multi-storeys please.

Not seen or heard much from Neil, Paul's still on here occasionally. Give one of them a shout and see if they're up for it.

I'll be drawing this thread to a close on Wednesday if anyone has any other suggestions.

We'll be good for the next meet after this one to go outdoors. If not, we'll have tested an indoor venue :wink:

Hi

The VAG guys have indoor meets at the fountain bridge cinema car park, and just sneak into the cinema to validate the parking ticket

Inverkeithing is winning at the moment:

1) Something will undoubtedly go wrong with the Fountain Park idea - i.e. 15 Zoners queueing to get tickets validated at the cinema when all films are in progress.....
2) Being beside two shopping centres, it'd be a fair assumption that the Livingston car parks will be busy
3) The park and ride is quiet at weekends and busy during the week.

Last day before I get this locked up and create another thread to publish the venue, date and time.
