MK Meet Sunday 4th/11th/18th May 2003 - Now you can vote!

[MattyWoo]

Right after the sucess of the last one i think we should hold another MK one in a few weeks so i propose the 4th may. Its after pay day etc. which should be cushti for most people. let me know whether this is cool or i should just shut up and bugger off :lol:
cheers
Matt

[joeczucha]

18th would be a lot better mate coz its my girlfriends birthday on the 4th and she would just plain kill me... J 8)

[Slatter]

sounds good to me

hopefully my car will be set up by then, well it better be !

Bring the gf along, we dont bite lol
unless asked :roll:

[wisewood]

i should be able to make it mate

[mikeoxford]

well, ill be the first name on the list :twisted:

would hope my motor is something like then

and ill have something worth smiling about and saying yeah this is my baby :)




as an asside - i was trying to sort summat for brum around that time. but thats cool.

what my real dream is that, everyone who attends MK will send an extra 45 mins to travel to brum, all the people in brum who are never ar$ed or dont like travelling, its on their doorstep, and hopefully sheffield people etc will send 50 mins coming down, everyones happy, and we can get MAXIMUM numbers together.

ANYWAY

i can wait another month for the brum meet :)

[mikeoxford]

i dont know wether to organise the brum one, as im put of by wether people would travel

[nova---chris]

well personally.

As longs the brum meet aint no where near merry hill / the esses or any local street racing curcuit id turn up. (evening)

If its gonna be full of baseball cap wearing handbrake turning donuts then ill give it a miss.
really not my scene.


But any well organised meet up is very much welcomed in brum.

[Anton]

3 days after my birthday :D should be good with me :D

[MattyWoo]

It seems after speaking to a few peoples that the 18th is a better date as some people arent free on the 4th. so which is better for everyone???

[Anton]

i prefer the 4th.

Put a vote on matty :D

[Jim]

4th is better for me :wink: :P

Just kidding.

I've already spoken to you Matt, 18th is good for me.

It would be nice if we had a better turnout than the last one, who knows perhaps Novaload members might actually turn up in there so called Novas this time, naming no names, *cough* Wisewood *cough* :roll:

I shall look into finding a location with food & drink facilities. I'll stick a map up as soon as I find somewhere more suitable.

Jim

[Anton]

I can do the 18th, and as its matts 18th it should be a laugh.

(I'm 17 days older than you :D )

[wisewood]

who knows perhaps Novaload members might actually turn up in there so called Novas this time, naming no names, *cough* Wisewood *cough* :roll:


well i wont be in a Saab this time, thats a start aint it :lol:
probably be in the clio unless i manage to borrow someone elses more comfortable car again :D You wouldnt wanna see my nova mate, its grown roots in the back garden at the moment.

The 4th is better for me... the 18th is exactly 5 days before i get paid so i can guarentee i will have NO MONEY on teh 18th of the month to spend 20 or 30 quid on a day out.

So - if its the 4th, yes i will be there.
but if its the 18th i probably wont be.

[RobIsGrt18]

urmm....i'll possibly be able to do either, pending on work :)

[joeczucha]

Yep 18th would be better but i can probably make the 4th too for an hour or two... up to you lads! J

[joeczucha]

Ah fuck it have it on the 4th coz if we end up moving it it will end up being on the 11th when i'm working! J

[Nova-Boy]

I have only ever been to one car meet before and that was a beetle bash about 10 years ago. I wouldn't mind showing up to see whats what. I cant come on the 4th cos i am racing that bank holiday monday. Any more info on where it at etc etc?

[Tilly]

Cant do the 18th of on holiday the next day so will be doing any last minute preps.

There is hopefully a meet in Bristol on the 20th April if anyones intrested? See EVENTS forum

[wisewood]

i am gonna try and get to the bristol one... meet some of the people i aint met yet but not sure. funds permitting.

[mikeoxford]

i no you wouldnt stop it just for me! :lol:

but i cant do between the 16th and 19th of may (so the 18ths out for me :()

and i cant do 23 - 26th of may either :(

so probly the 11th is the best for most people anyway juding by replies?

as for birmingham meet.

it will be like a MK meet, purely novaload people or associates, and purely with an enthusiastic intrest, not no donut cr@p

[Nova-Boy]

I know i am about to sound like a real tit but what does MK stand for and whats it about?? :oops:

[wisewood]

MK = milton keynes.
the most common venue for novaload meets.


you turn up in yer car and meet loads of other people from the site - good day out normally.

[Benjoyce]

i'll be there this time, car's on the raod and havin a few little bits done to it. what ever date is good for me.

[Nova-Boy]

Well its just a shame that MK is about a million mile from me! Too far for one day i would have thought. I might wait till theres that Nova weekend in the other topic people are plotting about!

[Benjoyce]

its not too far amte, where in cumbria are you? i used to live there, vvvv.hilly!! its proberly only 3 hours or so from you

[Nova-Boy]

I live in Barrow-in-Furness Right on the edge of knowhere. 3 hours sounds like your in a very fast car or something!! Anyway, there and back is nearly the whole day!

Not to mention the cost of petroleum spirit needed to power my road going internal combustion engined auto machine!

[Benjoyce]

fair point. i used to live near penrith in a little village called bolton. used to get car sick all the tiem coz of the hills

then moved to beautiful essex where the birds are common and the roads are always jammed!

[wisewood]

oh come on i travel two hours each way to MK - an extra hour or two aint so bad... i would do it.

even if you only do it once mate it'll be worth it - both times i been its been great.

[Benjoyce]

its probely no further than someone travelling from kent or the corner of essex(anton) it'll prob take me 2 hours or so.

[Nova-Boy]

Give me the details then. I will have to weigh it up. How much does it cost to get in, do people have things for sale etc etc.

[wisewood]

its not an official thing mate - its just a load of us meeting up somewhere and mk is as good a place as any.

[MattyWoo]

Its prolly gonna be the 11th now from what i've heard from others who haven't voted yet.

[Anton]

ben you wanna convoy?

[Benjoyce]

yer why not, i can meet you where ever is conveniant for you. i'll have to try and get on here as often as poss when i start my new job if they haven't got the net.

[mikeoxford]

ill organise the convoy heading south if anyone wants to meet?

usually we meet at the watford gap services

a few of us convoy straight from our hom etown of bimringham

[Benjoyce]

watfords just ove the border for me, well sort of.

[wisewood]

[Anton]

probably braintree i reckon :D

[Benjoyce]

ok then, we'll sort it nearer the date.

[Jim]

the most common venue for novaload meets.

First off, Milton Keynes is not the most common place for meeting up, I prefer the term "popular", it just so happened that a few of us that live here started to meet up on the first of every month. We then decided to post the meetings on NL, and theres been pretty succesful meets since. The most succesful being a few years ago when Redline turned up. Bit gutted they only gave us 2 pages and were over 6 months late with the feature, but anyway.


I know i am about to sound like a real tit but what does MK stand for and whats it about?? :oops:

Milton Keynes is fairly central in England (don't start those of you that usually bi1ch about this as I come from Manchester, and I've driven all over England and MK is fairly central. I just happen to live in MK now). The M1 and A5 passes straight through Milton Keynes.

Milton Keynes itself is probably one of the easiest places to get around (providing you have a sense of co-ordination and know the alphabet and can count to 10). The main roads in Milton Keynes are 60mph so you don't have to worry about driving like Miss daisy in a place unfamiliar to you.

The location is yet to be decided. I will look around Milton Keynes over the next couple of weeks for a suitable location. There was one place that was ideal, but unfortunatley the warmer weather brings out the locals and tourists to that location, so it gets very busy. I found another location that was clear of the public and also provided a few people with an opportunity to show what there cars can do. However, some people complained that this location was not near enough to food and drink outlets, so the numbers dwindled. I shall try and find the perfect location, but you might just have to make do with second best.

So there you have it. Any more questions, comments, etc?

I shall get back to you all on the location as soon as I can.

Jim

[Ric 16v]

sorry to butt in here but why can't there be any meets up north some where like blackpool, I'd love to come to the mk meet but it's just too far for me to travel I'm not being selfish or anything but i'd have to stop in a hotel overnight which is just soooooooooo out ov the question, so would there be any chance of a meet up north somewhere ?

Erm... Sorry mate but there was a meet in sheffield the weekend just gone is that not far enough north for you??? :x

[Jim]

:roll: Everytime we organise a meet theres always one.

There can be meets up north and there are. As I say everytime we organise a meet down here, it's where we live, it's us thats organising it, so why shouldn't it be in MK?

Tilly, we use to have our monthly meetings at the shopping centre, but it gets very busy. I shall check out to see how busy it gets the week before hand. If theres plenty of spaces then we'll consider holding the meeting there, but only if you buy the organisers presents :D

Sounds good to me, i wouldn't mind a present :D
Don't forget that most of the parking in the centre of Mk is now pay and display which is a complete bastard!! i'm sure we can sort summit out tho.

[mikeoxford]

isnt it pay and display up there?

and when we went in last time for a maccys at exscape, there werent even two spaces together for me and rob let alone 20+

[Breeny]

lol you have to know all the hidey places! Its the Uk's most expensive shopping centre so be warned! (But i still spend all day there lol)

[Tilly]

i'll window shop then lol

[Will]

im there! :D i will search for locations on saturday

[Neil.]

ill meet at watford gap service station, prob travel down with olly, andy and chris(red devil, if his car is finished) what the date looking like so far as ill need to book time off,

[MattyWoo]

Its lookin like the 11th at the moment mate, it seems to be the date that everyone can do, I can't really do the 18th as its my 18th birthday so really should do summit with my mum and a few people can't do the 4th so the 11th seems the best option.
