Yeh? Well I go to uni in Canterbury... I'll keep an eye out for you! \:D/

I know what you mean though, there aren't many of us around. Having said that, I've seen 4 mk2s in the last couple of days (including a standard red one outside Herne Bay, and a tasty heavily modified black one going along Stone Street)... but no mk1s! Where are they all?! I feel so lonely... :(

Aah well! I did notice a coupe of mk2s there last year, the black one I saw looked pretty similar to one that I think was owned by a Japanese guy at uni. Don't know if he's still around though. Maybe there'll be some fresh new mr2 faces this year! I've only got one year to go... :shock:
Nice one for graduating though. Must feel good! :thumleft:

Ahh, I went to that fake Uni called Christchurch, but that was 3years ago now :)

As I said, I live in Ramsgate so if you want a mini-meet up at some point around Canterbury way, perhaps meet up just outside the City and go for a drive?

I'm in the process of organising an event that will start at Ashford and end at Lydd on Sea, going through a load of countryside (Looking at November due to other events through Sept and Oct taking place).

I am currently concentrating on the France daytrip for 27th Sept, we have 13 names down for that so if you want to come along, PM me for more details.

There is also a North West Kent meet up in October but a date is yet to be decided but will be either first or second Sunday of the month. So there are plenty of things happening, you just need to make sure you keep your eyes and ears open :)

Why not join in TonyLeFrog's Kent runs... 60-100miles of twisties and then a pint and grub in Dungeness.

Can be pretty frantic at times, but its an awesome way to spend a Sunday afternoon. :thumleft:
