M4 corridor meet @ Swindon (idea shelved for the mo)
« on: July 06, 2012, 11:55:00 AM »
RIGHT.......
following on from funkydoodycools post re a North London meet........

My Proposal....

Venue:- SWINDON - Designer Outlet (satisfies the ladies urge  ;) )
                            Its not that far from London (1.5-2hrs), and about half distance
                            from the 'Bristol boys', so they can come.

Date/s:-                Can't be mid to late August cos wud clash with Smart Times.
                            Has to be on the weekend.. for 'normal' peops...and an early
                            meet time say 9 - 9.30am ? as can get very busy mid morning.
                            I'm thinking of a Sunday...they open 10am - 5pm on Sundays.
                            Sunday 22nd July, or Sunday 29th July, or Sunday 5th August.

'Tubes' to/from the venue ? I'm sure that can arranged between those who decide to go.

Excellent idea. I changed the title G to make it look less restrictive on who can attend :)
Swindon is pretty accessible to the Midlands people too......

I will check my calendar when i am home.

Looking forward to it...

Aaaaah come on people....

Once again a simple meet up is organised that can accomodate many of you, and
also cater for your other 'halves' (!), and what response have you given to it ?

          Apart from Funky Not one PM or enquiry...! !
           the response has been Absolutely jack ! !

          Just what is the problem with everyone ? ?


As it stands, it was just going to be me n Funky, on the 22nd July.
And if that is going to be it, then the pair of us might just as well pick a
Saturday and go share a coffee in the company of 'real' Smart people....
and pop into S2smarts and 'mix it' with ForTwo and Roadster owners
rather than go to Swindon !

Well, it has only been three days...

Work and prebooked arrangements on those days so it's a no go from us. Sorry.

Apologies Fox and everyone else....  :-\
panicing a bit as I was aware that the 22nd (or the 29th) isn't far off.

OK...idea shelved (along with so many other previous meet-up suggestions)..
