Title: Essex/London meet in April
Post by: missymckay on March 12, 2014, 08:25:27 pm
Seeing as they are quite a few on here from the Essex/London area I thought i'd try and organise a meet. I'm thinking of Sunday 27th April meeting say mid morning/lunch time somewhere near Lakeside.

Let me know if anyone fancies it, location ideas and also if you want to meet somewhere there is food as I can book a table if needed :)

Sounds good used to meet at Lakeside with our little meets from R32oc, so if you don't mind me joining i'd pop along

Post by: missymckay on March 12, 2014, 08:55:02 pm
The more the merrier :) just need to decide whereabouts to meet up. Maybe one of the car parks at lakeside?

Sounds good to me, all I can think of is nandos in the retail park or one of the quieter car parks/levels in lakeside it self ten have a wonder to the boardwalk. Or there's the Dog and Partridge in North Stifford or the Harvester, the trouble with them is its Sunday roast dinner day so could be busy or lack parking.

R32OC used to go Frankie and Benny's in the retail park but it's not all that in there.

Just a suggestion, what about lakeside services ??
Title: Re: Essex/London meet in April
Post by: Nodz on March 17, 2014, 09:38:48 am
Could do as out the way, the bit by KFC and Frankie and Benny's is usually dead as nothing's in that part, plus if anyone's hungry no one will have to pay the extortionate services prices

As the weathers getting better and theres alot of dubbers all over essex and London might be worth sticking something together and getting it on Instagram and facebook the only problem is it may interest ricers and wheelspinning junkys.

I think the dispersal order is usually from April/May to October ish. Anyway we're only meeting to eat chicken lol ;)

I was down Lakeside Saturday night, it looked like there was a Ford meet going on at Tesco. Lots of police around tho and a couple in unmarked cars so no racing going on
Title: Re: Essex/London meet in April
Post by: Nodz on March 24, 2014, 08:57:17 pm
We should be fine as its Sunday morning meet not fri/sat night with us in tesco or Maccy d's.
I always avoid going near lakeside on a Friday or Saturday night or if I have to go I go in the other halfs car as I cant be bothered with attention from the plod or muppets tryin to race me.
