Watch out for the turbines at Nissan. They tend to go up in flames!! lol (good venue, well done)

[japtuner]

, theres a few of us work there from the club, we get to laugh everyday at it, oh the shame for the top bosses there
hope to see some of you's there

[Caroline MacDonald]

Yep, my son works on the line there, so told me all about it!! (wind turbine) I wonder if Nissan are feeling the pinch lately, as they are allowing dog shows to be held at the same venue now?? Wonder what they charge for that?? Evening Chronicle running a story tonight (Tuesday) about the launch of the new car(s). Good exposure for the North East, with the announcement of up to 1,000 new jobs. Well done Nissan. =D> =D> =D>

[japtuner]

The sports and social has always been there and been able to hire for events, mostly gets used for wedding partys, engagments that kind of thing(the pub bit) and theres always sports stuff going on, I think people are just becoming more aware of the fact that you can hire it

[japtuner]

the address for it is Washington road, Sunderland, tyne & Wear SR5 3NS

as we've had quite a few people from further afield than we thought wanting to come and didnt know where it was

[JJ]

I will put the battery on charge and weather permitting will be there. If so, fancy meeting up for a bite of lunch before hand?

Dont you get fed at home tony ???

[tubby_tony]

If you ever tasted my cooking mate you would lok for excuses to eat out also

Seriously though, just thought it would give an opportunity for a get together and maybe influence some others to turn up. After all, we all know Gayle is very fond of her sunday roast at the pub so that should temp (order ) Graeme out for the meet. Reminds me, I must drop Stu an e-mail to find out what he is up to with his car, and besides it will give you an opportunity to tell me all about your new mods JJ.

sounds like a good one! tubby tony and JJ if you are out for some food first let me know where and when

[tubby_tony]

This is looking promising weather wise. I am working on my car on Saturday but should be back together in the afternoon ready for Sunday. For lunch there is actually a pub that is suppose to do good food right near the entrance to Nissan works at the old aircraft museum. Cant recall what it is called but will find out.

[JJ]

Time, place and location tony .... and we'll be laughing cheif organiser !

I can't commit 100% yet... though I'm 95% there.. even if the MR2 drops dead on me.. I've got the trusty honda to wheel me about !
