Where would you guys like to have your meets?

[Gaz86]

as above really, as I've said I'm not going to be able to make most of them due to family commitments but lets see what interest there is.

[stumpy]

well any where really,, as long as if people are willing to travel down uop and across!!!!!!! i also have family commitments,too kids and the mrs works most sundays but i will try to attend any meets!

[boyracerv1]

well, ive travelled as far as newcastle under lyme last weekend for a meet which was rained off in the end.

i have my family aswell, but my wife normally comes with me and the best thing is a family meet at somewhere with a wacky warehouse or something where we can bring the kids.
If someone has ample space at their property then a fix it day would be ideal as some dont like one aspect of a car such as engine or electrics.

one thing i have noticed is people with the same car do like to group themselves off, even i have done. so if poeple came out and realised theres more than one model vx at a meet it would give them ideas when they want to change their car.

as i put in my thread, im at a family meet tomorrow and if anyone is evesham way and sees us let us know.

[Benn]

Replied to watch.

from what I can see on the WM register the majority of active guys are quite central to the region so around stafford/cannock would be ideal.

I'll travel anywhere within reason so long as Kay doesn't take the car that day, I've even done a RR day up with the NW lads.

Anywhere Steve! isnt

[Nemesis]

Telford.

No wait... um.... The Darlston at Stone is quite popular for most WM people and I dont mind the drive

Alternatively Harvey runs a monthly meet at Alfreton on the A38

now i know i may be being picky but all those places are 30+ miles for me

why not try actually in birmingham?

That might be alright for some but not others.

Not being funny but Stone is probably 30+ from me but I've been there half a dozen times because it's a good location for members from Stoke/Stafford

There's nothing wrong with a road trip if it makes life easier for others

[Benn]

Gaz where's Bean on this?

[boyracerv1]

dont get me wrong, i did over a hundred miles round trip last weekend for a meet, its just that it would be nice to have one close once in a while, like do telford, stoke, birmingham, maybe bromsgrove, kiddy.

basically vary the locations

[Gaz86]

The region is HUGE I totally understand what Rob is saying about distance as the Maypole is pretty out of the way, the M6 is the saving grace for us further south in the region and I don't mind hopping on it and travelling.

Ben - hows it looking for next weekend?

Benn - haven't heard from Bean

[Nemesis]

Gaz - Yes. 100%

[Benn]

Benn - haven't heard from Bean

See if you can get his input? He is RC too. (not ment as a dig at you)

[venom]

what about one and two halfs just off jt2 M5 good food big car park and friendly.

[boyracerv1]

so let me get this right, most of you are top end of birmingham, stoke and that sort of way?

can you imagine how we are on vvoc the west mids goes down as far as gloucester and as far up as newcastke under lyme!

[Gaz86]

I'm Sutton coldfield, I border east midlands literally, regardless of where the meets are arranged I'm travelling a good amount, also j2 M5 is a bit far for the litchfield staffs and telford lads I mean it's gonna be nearly an hour drive.

[Gaz86]

Red is people who have listed their location, blue is where the regulars hold their meets

[boyracerv1]

looking at that it looks like burntwood is most central, but what is there to do there?

thats actually quite small this is our west mids region and its members
vvoc members locations - Google Maps

Welcome to MIG, most of the older guys from the region were driven away, hence why we have no meets and no one in the region anymore also I don't care too much for VVOC or some of its members.

I agree there's not much at Burntwood but Cannock is much nicer.

[Nemesis]

I reckon if you actually worked that out with maths then Cannock would be the fairest place for a meet

It's worth noting though that Harvey's east midlands meet already has a good turnout if we could sort a combined meet.

i'll agree that some of the members are right knobs, but the lads who i meet up with most months are a good lot and will help anyone out

cannock seems like a good compromise for everyone, i ve never been there so dont know whats up there

[venom]

what about the OK american dinner on A5 in Cannock it,s more central. easy to get to off M6 . just a thought.

[BlackIce]

The problem with Cannock is its chav central, if they see some decent tastefully modded vauxhalls rock up at OK Diner, you'd have 2 dozen ripspeed fiestas and the like up from the MaccyD's down the road in no time being retards

That's Lichfield actually, Burntwood is about where the 'n' in Burntwood is. Some nice pubs in Lichfield and some nice restaurants too. Some Beetle clubs have meets at a pub just round the corner from me and it's quite ideally suited; big car park, good food, pretty cheap.

Very expensive so I hear, and as said, Cannock is chav-central. Wouldn't be aversed to trying it out, personally.

Just bear in mind, that this was the last time we tried a meet a bit further south: Meet May 30th 2010

lmao
