Hi all,
I would like to arrange a regular get together for members in and around the midlands. I realise the area is quite large and could have locational problems, but I am open to suggestions. Anyone interested please reply here or e.mail me with your comments. Thanks
Mark

Where in the midlands are you ?

Hi Ed,

Thanks for replying, I am in Derby, where are you?
Mark

I have just started building and live in South Derbyshire, (Donisthorpe). I would be interested to meet other local builders.

Hi Peter,

Thanks for your reply, I hope we can get a few more folks interested from around the area, do you know of any other builders around you who may be interested, if so let them know. If we can get to say half a dozen, I'll try and sort a midpoint venue and date

Sorry, don't know of any. Hopefully they will see this and post. Maybe there is a list available from the OC.

Hi guys

I have an NG TA which I purchased off ebay over a year ago. She was rather sick but I'm gradually nursing her back to good health.

I live in Newborough, just outside Burton on Trent. I don't visit the website that often, but I will keep an eye on this thread. So far the midlands doesn't seem to stretch that far!

John

The numbers are building slowly.

Hi Peter,

That's what I wanted to see, keep em coming folks!!

Mark

Hi Mark. I've a NG Ascot? I'm currently building. I live in Newhall (South Derbyshire) I'm not a member at the moment, mainly becouse of the percieved lack of any local group or contacts etc.
I would certainly be interested in meeting like minded local people. (I might even join the club) RayB

Ray - join us! You won't regret it. The magazine (quaterly or more and thereabouts) has lots of articles about members builds and adventures - so lots of tips + tricks for building and encouragement to get finished and driving.
The forum here is also a great way to exchange news and ideas and source parts via other members.
I'm down in Hampshire so unlikely to make a midlands meet but hope to see you at some of the shows or next year on the London to Brigthon run and i promise to make the club national rally next year - unless my TA has her way again!
Go on - join...
Dave

Hi Ray, good to here from you, I totally agree with Dave , you have to join. I hope to have a venue sorted pretty soon for a meet in mid September. Watch this space as they say.
all the best
Mark

What happened to the idea of a local meet. Has apathy reared it's ugly head?

Hi all,

What would folks prefer a midweek or weekend meeting?
Let's have some suggestions please.
Mark

Hi Mark I've found with other clubs I've been a member of weekday evenings is favourite

I am flexible as my job doesn't recognise weekends. I believe that a weekday would be better so as not to interfere with family stuff too much.

Hi all
How about next Wednesday, 7th March, @7.00pm in the Boot Inn at Repton, nr Burton on Trent. Everyone welcome.
Mark

See you there

I'll be there

I'll be the one with the empty glass awaiting a refil then!!

Hi Mark.

As I don't know the pub, is there a lounge and a bar or is there just one room.

Is this your local. If so if I ask for you at the bar would they know you. Maybe you should have something NG related on a table so that we can all see.

Thanks

Pete

Hi Peter, (and anyone else who wants to come)

If you call me I will give you directions as best as I can. My numbers are on the NG website. Look forward to seeing you all.
Mark

Are we having another meeting next month Mark. Hopefully I will stay for another beer this time.
I notice from the Changin Gear that there is a new member in Repton.
Maybe worth a call??

Please let me know

Pete

Yes, 7.00 pm Wed April 4th, The Boot Inn, Repton, I also notice in the latest club mag a new member that lives in Repton, if you read this please come along we'd love to meet you. And without saying all are welcome.
