wez_p Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 last night of the illuminations, good excuse for a North West meet? (and ofcourse anyone who would travel from any further) i've heard about a North West meet of the MG Rover club & the local CruiseBlackpool club who are also trying to arrange a meet for that night could be some nippy little tomcats & turbo'd bubbles about for the journeys there and back there's plenty of car parks, pubs, McDonalds drive thru's etc nearby where we could meet, eat & drink etc couple of maps below to show where we are & where we could meet: Map1 shows how to get to Blackpool for those who don't know (aim for the red X) Map2 shows how to get to the meet location from the end of the M55 (follow the green line until you get to the little Supra logo which is a retail park where there is a massive Morrisons car park right next door to McDonalds) the illuminations entrance is just a bit further down the road (shown on the map as colourful lights near the sea ) currently aiming for a 7pm meet, unless anyone objects?

wez_p Posted October 21, 2005 Author Share Posted October 21, 2005 you bloody snobs! the folks i've met to date who are members of the club are actually quite sound & it's very focused on car modification (mainly Ford stuff with the local experts Motorsport Developments beinga specialist) - they actually did a charity event a couple of months ago (a bikini car wash!) anyways, it's our own meet if we prefer & there's plenty of places & the light are usually on till about 11.30 on a Sunday ( http://www.blackpooltourism.com/?OBH=270 ) does 8pm sound like a suitable time? i'll have a think about where would be a good place to meet if people want to say whether they will be wanting to get some food or anything, e.g. a location near a pub, McDonalds, etc? sim, are you really coming from Sussex?! 1, n00b 2, Garetheves (Gaz) 3, tobyg 4, sim 5, wez_p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna try and get the missus to come along as well for a meal so if anyone else is up for a meal then this is something we can look into. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/calendar.php?do=getinfo&ea=attend&e=224 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
