Shouldent that be hudders KEV?
arrogte/uddersfld Oops - fink you right Coln me ol mate, but wots the difference - yer all foreigners to me anycase. Sometimes I cant get me north&south aroun sum ov the places u liv - no wot I mean, aawite :)
Next week anyone?
Steve,
Im organising another meeting in Huddersfield on 5th June. Do come. Have a look at the Yorkshire thread to pick up the details. I can send you a map, if I havent done so already. (The same offer applies to any other people attending.)
Jeremy
July....?
Think it was discussed but cant remember the outcome.
The next FRA regional social will be at Brewsters, near Lincoln, at 8pm on Saturday 3rd July.
The one after that will be in Huddersfield on Saturday 4th September at 7.30pm
Ive been a bit busy with Newark to remind everybody of the next social in Lincoln - but please post here if you are considering a night out on Sat 3rd July.
As Jeremy has said, its Brewsters at south side of Lincoln. Directions above (21st April).
Weather permitting - theres an area suitable for Robot Demos (secure fenced patch at end of industrial estate, just 200yds from Brewsters)
Kev.
Ill be there.
Arthur
Should be there, probably have little omicron with me.
No report kevin?,been nursing a very poorly robot since the so called friendly at Newark,so couldnt attend social see you at huddersfield?
Ill put one up instead then... suppose its my job now.
Attended by (in no particular order): Kev, Arthur, Mrs Arthur (sorry, didnt catch her name), Tim from Stinger, Neil and myself.
Just a general yack really, main points were:
a/ That if Kev were to get the position of Secretary on the FRA board (which he has), hell need someone to do his job as regional rep. Jeremy has said hed rather continue in his regional deputy role, Neil said he couldnt do the job as hes going away to Uni at the end of the summer, so I said Id do it.
b/ Expressions of concern as to whether Mentorn will get litigous over the World Championships.
c/ My demonstration of how to breathe life into a seemingly dead A-reg Polo :)
Think the verdict was no social at the start of August due to the WCs (Im busy that week anyway), so the next one is over in Huddersfield at the start of September.
There was an FRA committee meeting last weekend, Kev and myself attended from our region - Ive lost track of what Im allowed to pass on from this meeting, and what not, so I will await the final version of the minutes to be published by Kev, to avoid putting my foot in it.
BTW - Hope The Wall gets well soon!
Thanks Steve-all better now.
Just got off the phone to Kev. Trevor Wright (Velocirippa/Mighty Mouse bloke) has offered to take over as our area rep. Ive always said I dont mind if someone else wants to do the job, so Im happy for Trevor to take over this role (saves me a job! :proud:).
Ill be going to the Yorks social this Saturday (see Yorkshire thread) if anyone from over the Lincolnshire side of things wants to car-share, give me a yell.
Email on the profile is off, so use stephenwoolsey@yahoo.co.uk or give me a ring.
Are we doing Lincoln on the second of October then?
hope so, as we have 2 belgians and 1 dutchman coming for the weekend.
Kevin, you still out there?
Thats half the reason I asked.
Is anybody out there....? Anyone who wishes to talk to us...? :)
Email Trevor Wright on trevor.e.wright@ntlworld.com
Already have, ccd Kev too, cause I think it was him fixed the date.
ok guys. Apologies for being so quiet lately. No justification - just been a bit busy at work / home etc.
YES of course well have a Lincoln Social on Sat 2nd Oct. Hopefully by then, well have voted Trev oficially as the regional rep. I need to sort details with him, but hes agreed to come up our way in the past.
Lets say 8.00 start at Brewsters - thats south of lincoln off the A46 where the dual carriagway turns left (if going north). Better direction in my post above on 21st April.
Cheers,
Kev.
Cmon Kev, no excuse to be slack, you know youre not allowed a robot and a life :)
The address for Brewsters is:
Gateway Park, Newark Rd, Lincoln, Lincolnshire LN5 8PE - The postcode seems to cover the whole road though.
Map is here: http://www.multimap.com/map/browse.cgi?client=public&db=pc&lang=&addr1=&client =public&addr2=&advanced=&addr3=&pc=LN58PE&quicksea rch=LN5%2B8PE&cidr_client=nonehttp://www.multimap.com/map/browse.c...ddr1=&client=p ublic&addr2=&advanced=&addr3=&pc=LN58PE&quicksearc h=LN5+8PE&cidr_client=none
As you get off the A46/A1434 roundabout (the one at the corner where the Lincoln Bypass becomes the Newark road, I think theres a Jet petrol station on one side of it), take the A1434.
Brewsters is on the right hand side as you go down the A1434, turn in the road before McDonalds. No need to worry about parking as theres loads of spaces.
Steve,
That is not the correct postcode, my work postcode is LN6 9UH and that is 100 yards away from the pub.
Arthur.
BTW.
The maps (Streetmap, Multimap, Mapquest etc.) are way out of date, there is now a dual carriagway all the way from the A1-A46 junction to the A46-A1434 junction which is where the pub is situated.
i might be able to attend the next social in october so i look forward to catching up with you kev.
Kev
Cant make the 2nd of October, we will be fighting in Edinburgh.
Can we put it back a week?
Cheers
Trev
me too ive only made 1 social this year due to clashing with events they are well dated but always seem to clash any chance to run them in the gaps between events .......... please!!! .....pete
hey up swany why arnt you going to edinborough?????????
shhhhhhh dont tell him were going !!!
I dont make a habit of butting in on other regions but Jonno, its the Edinburgh Hoteliers Association you shouldnt tell.......just in case he is going.
Sssssshhhhhh :)
Ok guys and gals. Since Trev is now the official Area Rep - its only correct that he has choice of meeting date.
This means we will delay by 1 week to let them get home from Edinborough.
The next East Midds social will therefore start 8.00pm on Sat 9th Oct.
Venue remains Brewsters pub/restaurant (right next door to McDonalds at South Hykham) - about 5 miles south of Lincoln centre.
Thanks Steve for the address link - but its LN6 9UH in Brewsters leaflet.
Kev.
Sorry about the confusion, yellow pages listed the wrong postcode... Ignore that post.
Sorry, we believe we cant make that day.
Next time better luck.
Mario - Im not doing Edinborough and Arthur said you were at his place that weekend.
I may be able to share an hour at that cider place nearby :)
I could be there about 9.00. Anybody want to make it an extra ordinary FRA social on Sat 2nd ?
Arthur - I cant rember the name of the pub - or even how to describe where it is. Can you help ?
now the date has been changed IL BE THERE!!! ................pete
Not this month for me.
Looks like I wont be making any future socials as I now work Saturdays overnight.
I have been missing for a while but I would lke to go to the next one.
Sam, the next local meet is in Feb. See new East Mids thread by Trev.
I have arranged another social for Saturday 2nd april 7.30pm, anyone welcome to attend.
Please e-mail to confirm so that I can reserve enough area of seating. If anyone wishes to join us for a meal we are sitting down at 7pm but seats must be booked before Saturday, so drop me a line and I can arrange it.
Directions for the evening are on the thread for the East Midlands new venue
