Title: Derbyshire/Notts Meet - 19th May
Post by: GTsport on April 12, 2013, 04:05:58 pm
Hi Folks,

just trying to see what interest there would be in doing a Derbyshire meet now the weather is sort of picking up! As there doesnt seem to be many going on in this region

I'm thinking along the lines of once a month on a Sunday, maybe incorporate some food or a drink somewhere.

Places where i've been to meets or heard of previously


* East Midland Designer outlet - off the A38 / Junction 28 M1
* Kingsway Retail Park - Derby
* Meteor Centre - Derby
* Giltbrook Retail Park (Ikea) - Kimberley, Notts
* Hurt Arms - Ambergate, DE56


These are a few idea's but any input would be much appreciated.

And as a starting point i'd suggest either Sunday 28th April or Sunday 5th May and then try and make it either every first or last Sunday of the month


Let me know if you're interested and if you have any good places to suggest!

 :happy2:



Date & Venue decided

Sunday 19th May @ 4pm

Eaton Farm
Wilsthorpe Road
Long Eaton
NG10 4AW

Interested.

+1. Derby sounds good to me. There are a couple more on here who may come. Mike when he gets his car back and I think Luka is from Derby too.

Just spoke to Mike and he says +1 for Giltbrook but also to throw another couple of places in the mix.

Bartlewood Lodge (mike is a carvery whore) and Eaton Farm at Long Eaton. Bit more choice for food there.

So 4 (including me) interested so far then which is good  :smiley:

Eaton farm is winning with 2 votes!

I reckon date wise go for the 5th May as it gives us an extra weeks notice

Title: Re: Derbyshire/Notts Meet
Post by: Jaywoo-GTI on April 29, 2013, 04:10:47 pm

Title: Re: Derbyshire/Notts Meet
Post by: GTsport on April 29, 2013, 09:28:36 pm
Shall we put this back then folks until we can can get a few more people?

This is what I suggest:

Sunday 19th May @ 4pm

Eaton Farm
Wilsthorpe Road
Long Eaton
NG10 4AW


I think because I've not really committed to a place, time and location - with plenty of notice (Basically made a waster of it!), its made it difficult for people to plan!


Let me know if this sounds ok and i'll update the 1st page

Sorry lads, won't be able to mate this. Didn't realise quite how far away I was from you, 100 mile roundtrip is a little too much for a meet! :sad1:

Hope plenty turn up! :happy2:
