Anyone fancy a meet, South mimms service station at the weekend?

[unfortunately_french]

As above really, haven't been to any meets yet and was just seeing if anyone wanted to do one this weekend.

 

[one in a million]

how far is that from orpington? theres alot of people posting threads about meeting up this weekend, sounds like i be doing alot of miles at this rate lol

 

[unfortunately_french]

I'm not sure mate, it's right where the A1 joins to the m25. If you do a postcode search on the services at south mimms and then see how far it is from you..

 

[Jekyll]

i can do sunday if people are up for it

 

[unfortunately_french]

Ok well sunday might be the best day to do it coz of people not working and stuff, Can meet you on the A10 jekyll if you wana cruise down together.

 

[one in a million]

49 miles for me, not too sad

Yeah mate I'm cool with that. Pick a location and I'll meet you there. Pm your number if you want if it's easier

 

[unfortunately_french]

Well i get on the a10 just before the enfield junction of the m25 so we could meet up at the travelodge that's right by that massive newspaper printing place just before the junction? PM you my number in a bit.

Hmm no time confirmed yet so....personally i was thinking evening like 5 or 6pm something like that, don't know if anyone else agrees?

 

[Joe R26]

I might pop up.

 

[Tombola]

Following from Boxhill thread Id be happy to come along to this although Im working nights so will only be able to come down during the day.

 

[unfortunately_french]

Well I'm not sure what time we should do it with two people that both want to come at different times, seeing as you sound a bit more definite than littlegh we'll arrange it for a bit earlier in the day. So aslong as everyone agrees, shall we say 3PM on sunday 27th at South Mimms Service Station? And i'm also hoping that we can get more than 4 cars attending lol.

 

[Joe R26]

Sounds good to me.

 

[unfortunately_french]

Ok then well i'll update the list so far -

SOUTH MIMMS SERVICE STATION 27/03/11 AT 3PM -
1.) Unfortunately_french
2.) Dr Jekyll
3.) One in a million
4.) Motofal
5.) JRS182
6.) Littlegh (depending on time)

So that's 6 if everyone shows up, surely there's some more people in this sort of area...

 

[GeorgeH]

I finish work at 2:15 usually so can make it for 3/4pm ish anyway. Sounds good. Can't find the services, is it on the same side as the premier inn? Anybody got a post code?

 

[Joe R26]

I think its this one EN6 3PN, thats the place I've been looking at anyway lol.

 

[Tombola]

3pm is OK but I start work at 6 so will probably have to leave around 4:45. Its about an hour from me.

 

[GeorgeH]

I think its this one EN6 3PN, thats the place I've been looking at anyway lol.

Lol cheers, that will do.

 

[unfortunately_french]

Ok well in fact that sounds like 6 pretty solid yes's for Sunday at 3pm then, I've done a search on the BP petrol station that is within South mimms service station and it's EN6 3QQ so just sat nav to that and you'll see the services you can't miss it.

I also found this to back up the post code i've got for it lol -

Ok well i don't think it's gonna be a late one mate, just a case of meet n greet, bit of chat and look around each others cars, maybe go for a little blast and then back to the car park again for a bit/photos if anyone wants to do some.

Haha if only, ok well do try and pop down, would be good to see those recaros in the flesh!

 

[Jekyll]

I'm game for 3pm. Gives me time to have a lay-in and maybe a little polish up (on the Clio, you dirty buggers!)

Unfortunately French - Not sure how far/long it takes from the travel lodge so you want to meet up 2:15-2:30 then cruise down there?

Id say 2:30 will give us plentyyyy of time mate, its like a 15 minute drive maximum from the travelodge so yeah 2:30 sounds good and then atleast 2 of us will be there slightly early.

Correct mate, just chuck a left off the a10 into there and i'll be in the car park at 2:30. Yup i guess i'm the host so should be there first, i'm just hoping my 182 isn't the worst of the bunch as haven't really done much to it since owning it i'm hoping to get some inspiration after looking at other people's cars.

 

[Jekyll]

haha, you'll be fine mate! lets just hope the weather stays nice too
