MrMurray20If anybody would like a meet in the Nottingham or Leicester area in April I would be up for that. As I dont live there I dont really know any good areas for meets but im sure somebody does.
Well I had an idea but I didnt mention it because my sense of direction is shocking. Thats fine when im driving alone but a lot of pressure when you are followed by a group of Fiats. I also understand that Chesterfield is WAY too far north but here me out. I suggest meeting in Chesterfield at the B&Q car park. Its at the end of the A57 (I think its the A57) which is just off the M1. Its a very large car park with plenty of room. From there we convoy down Chatsworth road to, well Chatsworth House. Im pretty sure you can park there and just pay to go in to the house. We then drive through Bakewell,Matlock and Matlock Bath and finally into Belper. From Belper its not that far to go around Derby on the bypass and back to the M1. Its just an idea at the moment so see what you guys think.I'll do one in Chesterfield.

Well mine was just a suggestion for now obviously. And I dont know if the "tour of the UK" was directed at me but I dont call a short drive around the peaks exactly a tour. I can recall that I wasnt the only one to say that simply parking up in a car park was boring. Im sure Dom can sort something out he is a savant when it comes to navigation and all that. I could always wait to Stanford but its a long way off.
The tour comment was done very tongue in cheek, the peak district is a lovely part of the world and I've visited it a few times. I live in Buckinghamshire so will be coming north. I'm not sure where Dragon man lives but if its south of the start and close to the finish it would make picking him up/dropping him off easier for me. :thumbup: that is of course if he wants to get in something as modern as a 500 .
Well I hope you guys have a great time at the meet today. I know Dom said he is sorting something out. But I was wondering if people would be up for another meet this month or if April would be better. Personally I was thinking about Sunday the 30th of March. And I was thinking about having the meet at Donnigton as I mentioned. I didnt want to just start a post and tread on peoples toes. There is a meeting in early April in Yorkshire which Dom is attending so I dont want to exclude him from the next MI meet. Anyway guys let me know and have a good time today.
Ive just noticed that the Yorkshire meet is not till the 20th of April. So maybe Sunday th 6th of April would be better?
As our fearless leader would it be possible for you to start a post with a poll please? It might also be best to hold a poll to ask where people want to meet. Is it possible to do a large poll with multiple choices of dates and places?Might be worth putting a poll up of possible dates in the MI section.
Once you have, I shall PM the 140 people now on the list to let them know...!

PM sent....well I think it sentI'm not so sure about "fearless" or "leader"...
...but am more than happy to put up a poll. Can I be a veritable PITA and ask you, though, first, for a list of dates and places, please. Probably best if you PM me....
PM sent....well I think it sent
