North East Meet -another attempt!

[GTWaites]

Since a Wednesday night wasn't good for people, would anybody be up for a meet again on Tuesday, same time -same place (OK Diner, A19 Southbound, Hartlepool at 7)?

If not, when and where would be the best place to happen? I agree with the comments lately on how the North East section is quiet - so let's make a meet happen!

Theres no outside lighting at ok diner they not working having meets and getting people interested is becoming harder and harder its hard to please everyone some people cant make them due to work or other things some cant do weekends either so its trying to find a happy medium. We have had some good meets in the past its just a shame they are few and far between cos when they do happen they are usually good.

[GTWaites]

As you say, it's a shame they do only happen rarely. I've only been to one - there was only the five of us, but it was pretty good.

[dan4291]

I'd be up for that. Shame about no outside lighting (must be some if we park close to the building!) but would still be good to meet some local Briskodians.

[GTWaites]

If it came to it, The Windmill is just at the junction prior. Is a larger car park and (hopefully) has car park lighting that works.

It's a shame about the OK Diner, I'd be interested to see what the food is like!

[dan4291]

Same here, was looking at the menu a few days ago, sounds great!

[Gambo]

Just to give you a heads up there's a meet at the Windmill for Sunday lunch on 3rd November (something a little different) and will be plenty of VAG owners along. So it might be a chance of you who want to have a meet to go along and participate? 

 

It's not a Briskoda meet, but a local forums bi-monthly meet. 

[dan4291]

That's the VAGCars meet isn't it. That'll be good to go to.

[GTWaites]

The VAGCars meet is usually pretty big, but very few Skodas turn up.

It would be nice just to have a Skodas only meet, but I'll still be turning up on the 3rd

[Gambo]

Well I would turn up but I'm not meant to be in the North East until later in the month and being in Swindon would be a bit of a trek just for that. 

 

When I lived up there I went to a few VAGcars meets at the OK dinner and food was good, milkshakes are worthy of a try, although that was a few years ago.

im game

Just to give you all the heads up...the food at the windmill has gone right down the pan , its crap , save your money

[GTWaites]

If it comes to it, we could head to the VagCars meet, then head to the OK Diner? Drove past again tonight, no lights again so it wouldn't be good to meet on a night. Plus the weather's supposed to be naff again tomorrow.

[dan4291]

I think the VAGCars meet would be better then. Definitely want to visit the OK Diner one day!

[tommccabevRS]

I'll be heading to the vagcars meet... Got my dates mixed up as well my car is going on the rolling road at motorscope in Northallerton on Sunday. It's my dads Subaru forum that is hosting the day, should be a good one if anyone wants to meet up there.

Dan, I might head there after the VAGCars meet!

I would also be interested in a north east meet, A place not far from me called Dalton park is ok for Sunday afternoon meets plenty of car parking spaces and a maccy dee's close by with a few coffee shops as well. Easy accesses for anyone needing to go north bound or south bound as well with been next to the A19.

[GTWaites]

Dalton Park's not a bad shout- nice Starbucks there!

[butler2.8i]

There`s been a few Jap car meets on the marina using the car park opposite Blockbusters

[JamieFabia6Y]

I would be up for this! Would be my first time at a meet so would be good to meet new people

Jamie.

[Tatt]

I am all for a meet at Dalton park or even the mariner at Hartlepool, It would be good to get out and meet new faces I was at a meet last week for the primera owners club still like to keep in touch with some old friends from there fighting to keep the old gt's on the road.

[GTWaites]

Hartlepool Mariana's not a bad shout either, as that retail park is getting a bit empty now. Navigation Point would be ideal for photo shoots as well on a good day

[Tatt]

After we get xmas and new year out the way we should have a go at getting a date for one and see who braves the cold.

[skodanorman]

Anything happening before Christmas? I'm  in the area for a few days?

[GTWaites]

Not sure mate. Weather's not that good at the minute!
