This region still going?

Andy K · 19-08-2003, 23:02

Doesn't look like it.

I think I know why though

SimonP · 19-08-2003, 23:04

Well looking back the region meets seam to die not long after a few members stood up and in loud voices said MIG is $h!te and slagged off Admin and then told them to go and join VXLSC.

And that was at a popular meet too

Might be completly unconnected.

SimonP · 19-08-2003, 23:18

Hahahahah

I know what you're getting at.

Andy K · 19-08-2003, 23:21

i think you had left the region by then

SimonP · 19-08-2003, 23:24

I know. But I can imagine the statement to be believable though!

if we havent got a western region no more, where do i go for meets now??????

21-08-2003, 14:06

You could become the co-ordinator and get them up and running

calibre · 21-08-2003, 15:02

ummmmm ummmmmmmmm ummmmmmmm, i dont think id be any good to be honest (if u were talkin to me)

and thats thruthfully, and i dont think anyone knows me to say what im like. (so that could mean i couldnt be trusted)

What does a regional co-ordinator have to do exactly because most of u seem to be at every show and i dont think i could have the time off work and money to do all of em.

How many meets did you goto before ?

calibre · 21-08-2003, 21:42

none

half the time i forgot and half the time the engine was dead, but now its all well and good again i wanna start coming to meets.

no-one seems to turn up for meets, maybe wrong location, day, time.

u could be it andy???? or simonP???? hes from western region originally isnt he???

Andy K · 21-08-2003, 22:37

I don't think it's the co ordinators fault no one turns up.

But maybe they should arange a date for a meet while it's still summer and advertise it on the net and see who turns up.

It's a shame as you see lots of other regions putting posts up about meets.

SimonP · 21-08-2003, 22:43

Well, I've been yapping to Tom and I'm thinking of taking over as co-ordinator. I used to be the SW co-ordinator a few years back and frequently got 20 cars plus at the meets.

Might try and get something else going.

Western region is kind of in a strange place. No real big cities in the catchment area. It's also close to Bristol which borders the SW region where everyone meets at Taunton. The Midlands lot meet in Brum, so doesn't leave much space.

It's not the most active of regions. Not too sure how many members are in it and where they all live.

calibre · 21-08-2003, 22:48

when????, end of this month?? sunday 31st august or saturday 30th???? as long as my car is ready (which it should be by next weekend) then i will turn up. maybe the cross keys instead of the other place???

I wasnt blaming anyone on the co-ordinators, im just saying that maybe the place, time isnt right for them, nothing anyoe can do but i would be nice to here from other members to hear what they want from this region.

I want to meet new ppl who have a same interest as me and have a laugh, speaking to ppl on computer is ok but it would be nice to actually speak face to face as i get on ok with some ppl from here and would like to meet up with them

SimonP · 21-08-2003, 22:52

Yeah, next weekend sounds good. How about a Meet in Worcester.

calibre · 21-08-2003, 22:52

there are loads of vauxhalls round here, just need a day of some of us to go out see any VXs and stop em and tell em about it, how about it Andy, Simon???? Wouldnt mind meeting u 2, and loads of others and u can see my baby and i definately wanna see both ur motors in the flesh.

calibre · 21-08-2003, 22:54

Worcester???? UMMMMMMMM if i did id probably pop to PMC and FFWD, maybe somewhere a bit closer to home????

SimonP · 21-08-2003, 22:59

PMC is not far from Worcester. Maybe 10 miles. It's kinda central to the region.

Up to you. Have it in Glouc.

Can get AndyK, TomStickland, Cavlad, BigBadBob, you, me. My mate James with the Calibre replica.

Andy K · 21-08-2003, 23:03

Tom Strickland at a meet. Only if you sedate him first

Who is bigbadBob ?

calibre · 21-08-2003, 23:05

cool, all i gotta do is get the back part welded up, and put it in for MOT and hope it passes, got a new spoiler for it, proper calibre one, paid £15 for it, just had £300 spent on it and i gotta get it taxed as well. I hope it would be a laugh, just hope it passes and it will be ok, if not, im gonna kill myself!! If we cant get a meet up then u could pop down mine and say hello if u wanted.

SimonP · 21-08-2003, 23:06

LOL! I need to borrow some of his tools, so I'll drag him along. Unless he's gone biking,

Bigbadbob = Rob with the Cav GSi 4x4 Silver, low as hell, Pentalines. Very quick.

calibre · 21-08-2003, 23:08

Ive met Tom, Pete and phil coz they helped with the engine conversion. As long as the car has MOT id be up for meeting, maybe glos would be easier, what about Kenni as well Si????

SimonP · 21-08-2003, 23:09

Kenni won't cause he'll be working.
