Isle of Wight meet, another 'feeler'

[cheezemonkhai]

maybe we could organise a good deal from red funnel ferries if there is a large number of people coming??

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA *drops dead*

This is red funnel that charge

[pixi]

I can't remember what time everyone turned up last time but I'm guessing Jason had a pretty early start. I think the ferry got in about 11 ish which is a pretty good time for hanging out etc before a pub lunch

[pixi]

I've just been reading the old thread from last time anyway, everyone got the 09.30 from southampton which got them at East Cowes at 10.30. The return journey was 20.30. I also read that Jason left for this ferry at 06.30 :eek:

The timetables may change between now and January but I think this gave everyone enough time to be over here.

[cheezemonkhai]

So are we starting a list of who is going to be there then?

[pixi]

If you insist

1) Pixi - not sure about Mr P at this point

BTW, I am testing out pubs for lunch at the moment. I went to a 'dining pub of the year' yesterday and quite frankly I have had better food and service from Brewers Fayre Onwards and upwards tho'

[20VLIL]

Fighting Cocks Pixi????...nice big car park

[pixi]

:eek: I hope not!

Nah, that's too central. We need somewhere on the 'circuit' Maybe we should stick with the Spyglass? Or there's a place on the beach in Shanklin I could check out. The Longshoreman I think.

[20VLIL]

Ok....I'll go back to sleep then

[cheezemonkhai]

Shanklin place is very nice if it's the one i'm thinking ofm, but then so is the spyglass.

oh and to the list:

1) Pixi (plus possible other)

2) Cheezemonkhai (plus possible other, assuming i am in UK at the time)

[cheezemonkhai]

Hmm well this one died a death then

[pixi]

Will told me I wasn't even supposed to start this thread until the WSM meet was over :P I'm sure it will gather more interest later in the year. If not, I will have the pub all to myself

[cheezemonkhai]

WSM why would you want to go there when you have the beautiful isle of sh*te to visit and can be ripped off by red funnel

[pixi]

Exactly!

Although I have been to WSM and it's not my cup of tea

[Emily-Elizabeth]

If this meets takes off, I will be there.

[20VLIL]

And I'll still be there...in my new phat Superb!!!

[Terry G]

Work permitting, I'll come along (any excuse for a jaunt back to the wight isle).

What is the White Mouse like these days (it always used to be quite good) and would be handy from a 'circuit' point of view (takes me back to my younger, more foolish days of racing my mates along the military road in my Seat Ibiza:O )

[cheezemonkhai]

Military road, yes thats fun, especially in an A3 SLine :o:o

The Wight Mouse has had a complete refurb and the food is ok. We went to the Fighting cocks last week and the place was heaving with flies so that's a definet no no.

wherever we stopped for lunch (and witnessed jason eating a burger with K&F) was brilliant.

I'll be along to this meet next year, its way too tempting to bring a car from work but spose really i should bring 12volts to a skoda meet!! she should be back on road then.

That was the OpenTV - Home inn on Ventnor beach. I was down there today and it was boiling, everyone jumped into the sea

And yes! you have to bring 12 volts.

EDIT, I don't know what happened there:confused: . Type in spyglass dot com and you should get to the web page.

[Guest Fabia 12v]

And yes! you have to bring 12 volts.

Scared of what i may bring from work upsetting the 'high performance skodas' :confused:

[pixi]

Lol, just thought it would be good to have the original line up except I will have my vrs this time

So, what choices would you have from work then?

Well working for Land Rover/Aston Martin/Jaguar....

[ncarring]

I didn't realise you'd had one before, but I've never been to the IoW so I'd love to come along.

There is a nice DB7 over here I've spotted a few times lately. I don't suppose.....
