Midlands Meet - Rav?

[Ollie_bwoii]

So the first Midlands meet this year will be at the Toby Carvery in Coventry? Is that right?

[ImysE30]

I doubt 20-30 cars will turn up tbh, there is the hardcore meet attenders of about 5-6 and then it just varies.

Maybe have a limit to the number of cars or summat

I would think so Ollie, it's a location that the regulars know well

Just need to confirm a date Rav

Pretty sure there was well over 20 cars at both the Toby Carvery meets I went to last Year - with a few more who came and went in addition to those who hung around.

Hope you're going to attend in something other than that Ricer imy ??

[Rav335uk]

Ok, seen enough now.

Lets have some dates on here, and I mean from you lot.
And i'll post up and meet date then.

[Ollie_bwoii]

Best day of the week for me is a Sunday.

Hopefully will be in a E30 if it's after March, just don't know which one yet

Rav - How about first Sunday in April, 4th? Plenty of notice

i thought it was a shocking place far too small, everone has their dinner there on a sunday so car park gets rammed..

sorry lads wont be going if there again...

[Rav335uk]

All input is welcome.

First meet we had there was fine - loads of space - I think the last one just happened to be a busy one for the sunday lunch brigade.

Another alternative is the Harvester at the Bassetts Pole roundabout on the A38 between Tamworth and Sutton Coldfield - a few of us met there at the way to one of the meets and there was another BMW meet ( mainly E36's ) on already that we didn't know about - If the pub is "meet friendly" it could be a good alternative venue and is dead easy to get to.

Just thought as well - for east mids Zoners a dead easy location for everyone to get to would be Tamworth services on the M42 - not much scenery but tons of parking

As for dates I'm not fussed - Sundays generally I like to laze about and do nothing but Saturdays could also be an option - might get some people out of being dragged round the shops ??

the pole will be meet friendly the bikers have been meeting on a tuesday night for years and never looked like stopping it even with all the accidents

[Rav335uk]

Yes, but is that the right link for the place??

[ImysE30]

It's this one Rav

http://www.harvester.co.uk/find-a-harve ... -pole.html

Looks good

[Rav335uk]

Did you use my link at all, IT'S THE SAME ONE!!!!!!

[ImysE30]

Did you use my link at all, IT'S THE SAME ONE!!!!!!

Errmmmm.... not quite

You linked to about 20 in the area, my link was direct to the correct pub

[Rav335uk]

No it's not.It shows you the Bassetts pole one too

[ImysE30]

C'mon man admit it, my link was better

So what you reckon then, i reckon it could work, it's closer as well

[The_Diddler]

others were commenting about the size of the car park at the Toby Carvery, his one's way smaller

[Ollie_bwoii]

Ever heard of making do with where ever you can park? Its not limited to just the bays.

That put's an end to this idea then

[Rav335uk]

Toby it is then

[The_Diddler]

Whats the point of parking all over the place, everybody wants to park together, otherwise it becomes very disjointed with cars parked here and there.

We need to get one place sorted and stick too it, none of this messing around, its just going around in circles, make a decision and stick too it, if zoners want to come they will, if it carries on like this it will be April and nothing will get sorted.

You dont see the southern boys fu*king about, its at Guildford in the same place, thats the venue, live with that or dont go, simple.

Its not rocket science

[Ollie_bwoii]

No I meant what if 2 cars parked in the bays, and then one in front of them?

Does that make sense?

[ImysE30]

Do not mess with The_Diddler

I've always said the Toby is a good location

[The_Diddler]

Have been here quite alot for food etc, its only 5 miles from my house. Car park is always quite full, not much room for double parking/across bays etc.

it'll just annoy the Pub, plus you just know some "stiff" using the pub will end up scraping their french turd down somebodies mint E30

[ImysE30]

Soooooooooooooo........

Sunday 4th April at the Toby, 2pm

[Rav335uk]

Keep the dates comming lads

[Ollie_bwoii]

What month where you thinking Rav? March?

[ImysE30]

I'm gonna be away until 7th March so i can do any Sunday after that

14 or 21 to bring it forward a bit

[The_Diddler]

I'll have to attend in the Skoda again

[Ollie_bwoii]

Buy another E30 diddly?

[ImysE30]

When's it's going to be ready?

I could be attending in the ricer

[The_Diddler]

Buy another E30 diddly?

I would, however the good woman would chop my balls off

[Ollie_bwoii]

Will your "Alpina" more door be ready if the meet was April?
