Local meets (Birmingham area)?

Post by Bob » 03 May 2006 10:57 pm

New to this. In simple terms are there any local meets in the Birmingham area in the near future?

Going though the forum it seems a large number of V3M'ers are around here and with decent weather and light nights etc what about it?

Any feed back and ideas welcome.

Thanks.

Bob.

Unlucky!

I was there a couple of years ago opposite the dog track and I absolutely hated the place!

Living in Bearwood at the moment, so I'll be tempted down for anything you want to suggest!

Birmingham Meet ?

Its not that bad. Well you may be right!

Don't know realy. I'm easy on the location. One or two of you have done this thing before so where have you meet in the past?

I would be happy for a run up to Derby for that matter. Like I said its all new to me.

Oh for crying out loud Mick!

You know, as in, your grammar is awful, you're an eejit!

This is turning into the single most annoying thing in the world!

B,ham meet?

Post by Bob » 05 May 2006 11:37 pm

Its not going well is it. To be told twice that where I live is crap is not what I'm after :evil:

So lets try again shall we.

We are all like minded idiots are we not. We all love the 300 Volvo. You all still with me yeh.

So what about a meet in the B'Ham or surrounding area. Feedback and ideas please :)

Thanks again.

I was thinking one of the evenings now its stays light. Just need a location. Willing to travel over your general direction. Fresh air would be nice!

Its up to you or whoever. Any ideas?

Well if you're thinking evenings there's an allegedly belting chinese gaff not far from mine, about 5 mins from the M5 Jct 2, not far from the hagley road/ wolverhampton road crossroads. we've not had an official V3M night out yet, I think it would be a laugh! Anyone up for it?
Of course the more obvious Brum night out would really have to be a balti though!

Thats the sort of thing. However if I'm being honest funds are always tight this way.

Great idea though. Need more input.

Might even agree on somthing before the Summers over. Another bonus!

Bob.
