North East Meet 17/03/07

[Turner]

Right, see if theres any interest in a meet.

Best two locations are either going to be Durham Retail Park like weve been to before or one of the car parks at Seaham.

I'm thinking around about dinner time.

Im not fussed either way as to where its at, possibly Seaham could be better as i doubt the car parks will be busy like Durham Retail Park.

[Adam_CTR]

im out that night night for our lasses birthday but i should be ok for a meet at around lunch time

[Lee_Boy]

a wont be there geeza will be getting car washed n waxed for nemm cruise n will also be still over limit for drivin at dinner time fri night is lads night lol

[harp]

time

[Stoner_Wardy]

this weekend? possibly depending on the numbers :)

[aguycalleddb]

I'll have a look along, might even wash my car :)

[Fox]

Let me know the time and I should be able to make it :) No promises though :P depends if I get these brakes sorted, need to strip the whole lot down as I am sure I have a sticking caliper.

[Keith Fusco]

Seaham sounds good to me. There's always plenty of space there. I'll be up for it!

[aguycalleddb]

which car park in seaham :dontknow:

[Keith Fusco]

Any, really. The one near the top of the cliff's is usually the best, as it's big, and there's two parts to it.

It's the one where you can buy ice cream, and stuff too. Near the manor hall, or whatever it's called.

[aguycalleddb]

I should be able to make it but my CV boot has popped :(

its in vaux on Thursday so should be fixed, need to get my 17's off and hope they dont notice the new springs :look:

[king kong]

car aint gona be finished :(

[Turner]

what time is going to be best for people, between 12 & 1 or something like that?

[Keith Fusco]

I think about 12pm, or so'll be good.

[Fox]

I should be able to make it but my CV boot has popped :(

its in vaux on Thursday so should be fixed, need to get my 17's off and hope they dont notice the new springs :look:

I've been in 4 times with Eibachs and they ain't noticed a thing :P

[shekabon]

oh if its bout 12ish then il def go thought this would be at night :doublethumbs:

[aguycalleddb]

about 12 should be fine :)

thanks Fox, they didn't say anything but I'm still taking my wheels off, I don't want some vaux monkey scratching them :lol:

[Adam_CTR]

yeah between 12 and 1 should be good

[Keith Fusco]

So this Saturday at Seaham between 12pm, and 1pm?

[aguycalleddb]

Yer sounds good 8)

who going then?

[Keith Fusco]

Me, me, me.

[shekabon]

ill be goin is the car park gonna be the 1 at the very end where its right next to the cliff

[Keith Fusco]

Yeah, I'd say that one's probably the best one, as there's more space. Could have a game of fuzeball too?

[shekabon]

lol i think the scenery theres the best 1 iswell

[aguycalleddb]

:yippe:

ice cream ;)

[Rob]

if i send sum1 a picture, they can take it with them then im technically there :P

[Keith Fusco]

I'll have the picture! <3

[bigkeith]

sorry folks i wont be attending this one, still cant drive after my ankle injury (severe sprain) nearly a fortnight ago. GUTTED

[aguycalleddb]

my Cs fixed :D
just need to clean it, i'll probably head over about 12

[Keith Fusco]

I'll be there for 12. Washed the car on Sunday, and it's still very clean, so hopefully I won't need to wash it again, unless it pours down!

[aguycalleddb]

lol mine just needs a quick clean and repaint the drivers caliper

off to order a cupra r splitter tomorrow :D

[Keith Fusco]

I might give mine a quick wipe down. Depends on the weather.

I'm still undecided wether to keep the Corsa, and splash out on it, or not buy anything, and sell it on soon. I think I'll go for the keeping option though.

[aguycalleddb]

Keep it for now and splash out on something bigger when your insurance drops :thumbs:

[kits evil twin]

i come go but am at work til 1

[Keith Fusco]

Keep it for now and splash out on something bigger when your insurance drops :thumbs:

I was contemplating that. The insurance for the 1.9 twintop would be £1,750 when I come to renew, and that's it covered for £20,000, so if I claim, I'd get that back. I think I might keep it until it's down to about £1,000 for the 1.9. By then, there'll probably be another new car out by then lol.

Like the Alfa Romeo Spider. Sort of like the look of that. Saw an advert for it the other day.

[Keith Fusco]

i come go but am at work til 1

I'm sure we'll be there for a few hours, or so, so you'll still make it in time.

[aguycalleddb]

yer good plan ;)

Dan we will be there for a while :)

[Keith Fusco]

yer good plan ;)

:yummy:

[shekabon]

was wanderin cud i follow sum1 there i dont know the way there :woops:

[Fox]

Been years since I have been up that way to Shek, just follow the A19 till you get to the Seaton Lane (B1404) Turn off, head down there and you will get to seaham 2 miles down the road, thats the easiest way I would say from yours.

[Keith Fusco]

Got the postcode for the docks, if that's any use? SR7 7NZ.

Could always trade numbers, and text/call, if you get lost in Seaham.

[Bigbaz89]

Where exactly in Seaham is it, sea front? Docks, Dorden? etc etc

[Turner]

Where exactly in Seaham is it, sea front? Docks, Dorden? etc etc

In one of the big car parks, which i would class as the Sea Front.

[Keith Fusco]

If you're coming from the Pool, and take the Seaham turn-off for Dalton Park, and go right. You'll go along that road with all of the roundabouts, and factories. Keep going, until you reach the docks, then continue along that road.

There'll be some bungalows on the left of the main road, when there's some chicane things to give way. keep going, until you go around this big road with a bank. When you're around there, the car park's pretty much on the right. You'll see a big grassy area with a little building, and it's that car park.

[Adam_CTR]

i will try my best to be there, just found out that im getting my house mext week tho so ive got a thousand and one things to do this weekend

[Turner]
