I think Lincolshire will be a bit far for a lot of people, especially people from the sarf....

If it's going to be for all, then it needs to be more midlands, like it was the first time, in Tamworth. I think that Tamworth is a great location for a meet (it is only an hour away for me) cos it's more central to the country so most people can get to it without too much hassle. It also incorporates people like Pete who live in north Yorkshire, and also anyone who lives in the north west like liverpool and the like.

I'm well up for a meet tho soon.......

Right - a fair few regional meetings in the ABS but the one I attend is 2nd wednesday of every month at the Angel Inn at Larling - Norfolk (just 3 miles from snetterton on the A11)

Anyone on here is welcome to pay us a visit - no pressure to join the club it's always been a mixed bag social event

Is that still an accident blackspot, Ian?

Used to be when I lived in Narfick.

I might be able to trundle down to Lincoln, as it's only an hour or so from me - won't bring our lass cos she hates going over the Humber Bridge!!!

Shame Hulls at the otherside though! Hate that place! Had a great day today (ABS meet). Was nice to put faces to people on the forum. Very impressed with Pedros car, shame i didn get chance to speak to ya, but il be visiting your sprayer sometime soon! Nice to drive home with sorted cruise control aswell!

Know what you're saying about Hull mate - terrible place! Undecided



I shan't take our lass and kid next time!
I was all for going in TGI's for a drink and a chat, but all I got was "I'm hungry!" from the pair of them........

Enjoyable time though - nice to put faces to names and see some decent motors too!

Anyone fancy doing a summer meet at Callow Top, near Ashbourne, Derbyshire.  http://www.callowtop.co.uk/

I can't do anything before summer now as I will be recuperating from my butchery in Grimsby Hospital.

It's a really nice campsite and Dovedale (one of the most beautiful parts of the country) is just down the road from there.

a lincolnshire meet would be good for me . as i would like to meet aand get to know other carlton owners .

Since owning my carlton , i have seen more here in grantham than ever before and i have had alot of compliments about my carlton because of the condition it is in .Plus i`d like some advice as i`m thinking of spending alot of money having her looking and running like new . So that i can keep her on the road for another five years or more .
