Well the first New Forest meet took place on a lovely day in December 2008, so the 29th November will be not only our Christmas event, but our first birthday celebration too. :slayer:

We are starting our day at the Green Dragon at Brook (that is the place marked on the event location map) at approx 10am and moving off for our tour of the forest (kindly organised by Mark and Kirsty aka Yellowluigi) at 10:30.

We will stop for a scenic photo shoot (of the cars!) and we will finish up at the Alice Lisle pub where we have a table booked provisionally for 12:30 for 15-20 people.

We regularly get over 10 cars and around 20-25 owners. Many of us have come to every meet and others just come when it suits them.

This is the first time we have visited the Alice Lisle, near Ringwood, but it comes highly recommended :yum: If you can't meet for the whole event, but would like to join us for lunch and a chat, you are very welcome.

It would be lovely to see an Arbarth, a byDiesel and a 500c amongst our numbers and we have yet to clap eyes on a Crossover Black, Cha Cha Blue, Silver (can't remember the proper name!), Punk Grey or New Orleans blue - infact it would be brilliant to try and get one of each colour this time round.

Please let us know if you can join us and post a quick note to tell us what colour your 500 is and don't forget to sign in at the top!

Looking forward to see you there

Looking forward to meeting you all

Calypso Orange 500

Should be a great day.

Bright Yellow 500

Can we come for the crusie if we have a fiat but its not a 500?!

Tracy,
Are we still on for 29th Nov? Not clear from the thread...

Anyway, I'm in - dependent on dates...

Mel in Mod Blue (alas, now scratched!)

of course, we have had a smart car and an MX5 in the past!

yes Mel, it does say it in the header for the event, but I will add it into the body too.

"scratched", what happened?

Ahhh drat. Can't make that date. Sorry guys you'll have to wait till the next one to see a byDiesel!

Some idiot in 4x4 Vauxhall almost squashed my husband while he tried to retrieve parking token from the floor (my daughter dropped it ). Luckily hubby not the worse for wear but alas, door scratched... TBH, rather have chipped 500 than squashed hubby

Really looking forward to NFM4!

Heidi, are you bringing your toddler? I might bring mine if you do... and hubby if he can bear us

in financial terms a squashed husband is probably worth more than a scratched car!! but that's a bit harsh isn't it

glad everyone is OK

me on my own (no toddler Mel - hoping to leave him at home with hubby this time so I can have a more enjoyable lunch)

Funk White 500

I just found out today that I get a Christmas bonus at my new job! So count me in!

My son has a swimming lesson at 10.30am on a sunday which I have to take him to, so I may only make it for the lunch - would that still be okay?

Hmmm,

Still no supposed to be driving in the dark at the moment (if ever) so I may have to be a plum & miss this one (again)

Im thinking of coming down again once Ive looked at accomodation and my finances... if so I'll be in a BN white 500... the only colour that matters

you're right, we do need to know so we can keep the number of white cars down :devil:

Let me see what I can do, I really wanna come down in my car, I may have to make a last minute decision though.

Another mighty BNW here too :slayer: sequence for photo... BNW, other, BNW, other, BNW, other... repeat as required :devil:

:idea: Do you want me to see if I can plan a run out and back maybe to the stone or maybe not...

great biggles, looking forward to seeing your decals (if you know what I mean)

so far we have more colours than BNW - how long will it last I wonder??

Hi Guys just read the Social Club thread & noted Mark & Kirsty had already offered to plan a route for the drive so not wanting to tread to toes I will leave it to them.

Look forward to seeing you all soon, will have word with Andy at work see if he can make it with his BNW to keep the colour numbers in the right bias :devil:
