Leicester-area meet - 10th July 2005

Post by Sidewinder »

**UPDATED**

Okay...it's been some time since we've had one of these, so a quick PM with Rowland, and we've come up with:

Date: Sunday 10th July 2005
Time: 1pm
Location: Hobby Horse pub carpark in Syston. The Hobby Horse has quite a decent-sized carpark, and has accomodated us in the past. It's also on camera for when we disappear inside for drinkies.

Multimap link: www.multimap.com/map/browse.cgi?lat=52. ... 000&icon=x

It's on the A46 - about eight miles from the M1 off junction 21a for those coming from the south - you can't miss it, really.

Any takers?

Ah...okay! I must admit I didn't check for other events. #-o

How about a week later (but same time, etc)?

Cool mate, so the 3rd of July.

Weather should be good and hopefully the turnout will be as big as the last 1! (way back in January last year!)

July the 10th? :D

We've waited long enough for this, so another couple of weeks won't hurt!

Excellent! The more the merrier! Always good to have a Mk1 present, too.

There are quite a lot of MR2 owners in the Leicester area from what I've read on these boards so far...they just don't read the 'Events' section much! :)

You sorted for the 10th, Rowland?

Anyone else up for this? We've had a pretty good turn out in the past (even for a mini-meet) with people coming from all-over the country as it's very easy to get to from the M1 - especially if you're coming from the south.

Nige, can i suggest that you edit the title to include the date and edit your first post on this thread too, might make it easier for people.

Come on guys and girls, not long to go now, was about 30 cars last time so lets make it even better this time!!
