Went up to Bluewater for a meet with a couple of people from here in the sarf east.

I turned up first and found this:

T'is a silk violet(?) more door. Look familar to anyone??

Anyways, after a small wait of around the half hour mark, Jeff16v turned up, and I will admit I got quite excited at seeing another nova that I wasn't already familiar with.

Then a car park space became available and managed to get mine and Jeff's nova right next to the unknown more door...

After about an hour after announcing he was on his way (and getting lost on the way lol) Dave turned up in his GTE:

It is a shame that a couple of others couldn't make it, but due to illness and running issues they weren't there.

However on the next one, there will be at least mine and a leaf green loon hanging around. And now I know where is a half decent (ish) place to park, then we can use it a bit more often :thumb:

TeddyThom
11-03-12, 08:18 PM
By the sounds of things, I guess I shall be getting another date booked up lol.

What I shall also do is grab a half decent picture of the car park and some idiot proof directions, then we all know where to meet up, and not have the small palava we did last time haha

Will be good to meet up with some new faces!

Steve
11-03-12, 09:38 PM
Sounds good mate, hopefully if the nova stays working i'll bring it along. It was fine after I spoke to you then started playing up again at work hence me leaving early lol

Seems ok now but ive got a few service items to get for it tomorrow

Im off there if it is!

When I picked up the Nova TD my lift, which was my sister and her friend spent an excruciating half day or so there... So I assume it's pretty good lol

Yeah bluewater is alright. Cinema is fcuking immense. Highly recommended.

On another note. Anyone suggest a relatively mutual date and time for another meet? I'll keep it in the corner do everyone can see as opposed to the regionals. I found that in the car park we used last time to not be that bad for space so I'll stick to that one. Once we've got a majority on the date then I'll chuck up a new thread with a map and some idiot proof directions.
