Good man Dave, you've just elected yourself as organiser

Name the time and the place and I'll be there (as long as its not the w/end of Oct the 13th or 20th).

We didn't get any reaction from the proposed meet in the UK so it looks like people would prefer to stay closer to home. If thats the case, we might as well sort something out so any suggestions for a venue would be welcome.

Ciaran

looks like it alright, the only problem is finding what people want to do and get some where...
so all suggestions are welcome and it'll have to be either late october or early november.

I'd definately be up for the meet in the midlands are we going to make it an overnight one just so we can quench our thrist either way I'll be up for it , So come on Guys lets try and make this one a bit bigger than the five who turned up in the pale


Keville

I rpobably won't be available cause i'm boring, don't really drink, don't get many "going out" passes and generally am a lazy b**tard but I hear kilkenny is a pretty good spot.

Go on out of that Shane, you can have a few 7-ups and tell the missus we'll look after you

Kilkenny sounds like a good option, I'd be up for staying overnight and having a few pints.

Ciaran

Kilford Arms hotel is alright, nice decent size car park out the back as well and only accross the road from langtons, which is meant to be decent enough!

I'd be up for a night out in Kilkenny - I'm probably one of the elder lemmons (42'ish) - and like Shane not much for the drink, but I'd manage a couple of pints in good company, and I'd love to see the other cars (Shane you'd be safe with me - my miss's will vouch for that).

So you can count me in.

Cheers

FTO ownership knows no boundries when its comes to age so you'll be in good company JD

As regards dates, how does either October the 4th or the 25th suit people?
Lets get some numbers together over the next week and book somewhere for those interested in staying over. I can't say I'm overly familiar with the midlands as a whole (don't get out of the pale much )
so can some of you guys come up with some ideas for something to do for the afternoon?

Ciaran

CJ,
I'd be up for late Oct / early November. If it's an overnighter then I will probably convince the better half to accompany. Hopefully it will be a warmer affair than Modello !!
KC

Its starting to look like there'll be a nice few cars at this meet yipeeeeee can't wait for the session [sorry i meant to see all those lovely fto's(and the session he-he!)]

Keville

i'm ok for most dates

The 25th October would be best for me
JD

i can't make the 25th, a friend of mine is moving to tiberius so i've to make an appearance at a going away do.

How does November the 1st suit everybody?

Ciaran

yeah it'd suit me alright!
(does this put you back in contention for organising it Ciaran??)

I'm happy to organise as long as some of you midlands lads come up with something to do for the day

Ciaran

ah i'll give a hand alright, it's not fair on you to organise everything all the time. i'll have a look at some stuff to do in kilkenny today

Dave wrote:ah i'll give a hand alright, it's not fair on you to organise everything all the time. i'll have a look at some stuff to do in kilkenny today

I'd come down for the afternoon alright.....

CJ wrote:How does November the 1st suit everybody?

Yessss suits me fine it's a weekend i'm not working as yet but if they tell me after to day to come in it will be a big noooo to them, as regards things to do near kilkenny, there is a cart track in kiltorcan (spell?) which is about 20-25 min from kilkenny city as regards other things i'm not sure, i know there is paintballing somewhere around bu as to where that is i'm not sure.

Nov 1 sounds good to me. Dave will you have the leather installed and on view by then ?
KC

hopefully, i was to meet him this weekend but i was away, but it should be finished by then!

OK, if we want to push forward with this meet, we'll have to book someone fairly soon, I called the Kilford Arms in Kilkenny and they're fully booked for Nov 1st, I have a listing of a few places but we need to get an idea of how many people will be staying the night. So far, the following people have shown interest in coming along, can you let me know if you will be staying overnight or not:

CJ
Dave
Kace
Daz
Keville
JD
Ron Byrne
Shane (no excuses )

Dave, could you follow up on the paintballing\karting idea for the afternoon, if you need help, let me know.
