Farnborough locals meet idea

[jamesybear]

Hi all,

After the thread in the spotted section with numerous locals popping up, feel its time to get a
meet thread on the go!

Seen a suggestion for April so far, just out the nastier weather season! A good shout, anybody else who has any ideas on another time/ get a date, time and location set down... Let the ball roll.

All welcome of course!

James

I'll try and make it but I get like 1 weekend off a month
Need to head somewhere where there's a bit of parking as it seems there are quite a few of us in the area.

 

[jamesybear]

Evenings during the week any good for people or would a weekend be optimal? Indeed need a decent venue sorted too, maybe somewhere that requires a nice drive to enjoy!

 

[SparkyB]

Im up for this im free most evenings and im off all weekends

 

[peanuthead]

I would be up for this if I'm free. Ideally a weekend

 

[dalealtham1]

im in farnbrough so up for this just set a date and time n ill be there ;-)

 

[pete_182_87]

I suggested a weekend originally as it's the usual time people have off.. I work shift hours so I'm free at all sorts of times I know a month in advance or more what I'm working so if someone suggests a date I can look into it if you guys fancy meeting up sooner? Could just have a meal or something around Fboro, maybe Hungry Horse? Talk Clio's, Fboro gate massive etc?

 

[Tiababy]

If we end up at the Gloucester hungry horse that'll be the shortest drive ever for me. It would actually be quicker to walk it
I do shifts as well but know a few weeks in advance. Can do most evenings barring the week I do nights so I'm pretty flexible too.

Can always meet up at farnborough gate and then go onto the A331 for a run a junction up and head to harvester in camberly (kings head) so you get a small drive?

 

[TobyRB182]

I'm new to the forum and in the military. Currently based in bordon, Hampshire. Would be up for some meets, sooner the better!

 

[jamesybear]

Good shout for food somewhere! Aviod the farnborough gate massive i think haha i jest, but yeah something like the hungry horse or harvester would be a good choice i think!

 

[pete_182_87]

I'll be at that Fboro Hungry Horse Saturday night... gotta put on some pounds somehow Hopefully also by then I'll have my nice shiny new decatted RS192 on the car

So shall we set a date then chaps? I'm gunna say provisionally Saturday 1st March, 6pm, The Quays in Mytchett (GU16 6DS)

Purely provisional... any and all suggestions / ideas welcome

lol we dont have to go in there just meet there?

 

[SparkyB]

Perfect ! Haha

 

[pete_182_87]

ok... I was just thinking somewhere we can fit the cars and have a quick drink if we're waiting on people. Other options could be The Swan near the Tech College... or the Thatched Cottage near the Sixth Form? Got any ex girlfriends lurking in either of them Sparky?!

 

[RMDavis]

I'm up for this guys. I'm in Basingstoke too, but don't mind a trip down the M3!

 

[SparkyB]

Nope just the quays haha

 

[dalealtham1]

[dalealtham1]

[RMDavis]

Id be up for a meet up and what have you! Sure I can get Mr Dunn out with his Trophy too.

I can also try and bring along a mate with his trophy, and another with a 182! Mini convoy from Basingstoke!?

 

[jamesybear]

Sounds good, the more the better!

 

[debussetti]

Maybe = No iirc

Any longer than 1 week in advance and it's not worth planning for in my world.

 

[billabong1992]

Im fairly local whats the plan?

 

[pete_182_87]

Im fairly local whats the plan?

Meeting Saturday 1st March 6pm. No further plans made yet but we were discussing maybe driving somewhere close by..ish

I'd suggest we all meet at either the Thatched Cottage (GU14 8NU) or in the large front area of Kingsmead car park (the one opposite the bus stops... think it's Kingsmead)?

 

[SparkyB]

Sounds good to me ill be there ! Hoepfully rocking a decat to

 

[pete_182_87]

Sounds good to me ill be there ! Hopefully rocking a decat to

I got mine fitted today... very entertaining

 

[SparkyB]

What kind ? Mine will be a miltek

 

[pete_182_87]

What kind ? Mine will be a miltek

Mines an RS192. I'm not into lots of noise and it's not massively noisy. I got the decat at no extra cost so it was a no brainer when considering whether to leave it out and have a normal sounding exhaust or put it on and create some giggle factor

 

[SparkyB]

Guta love the giggle factor hopefully mine will make my car even noisier....the neighbours arent moaning enough

 

[JohnR27]

I'll try sort my Saturday that I can finish early and come find you. Nice and local :clap:
