Yes Paul. @antowens is a good go-getter as far as organising meets, but he also used to have an ideal business works location too, somewhere where members could meet and work on their cars, inside a warehouse if needed.

Unfortunately that facility has now been withdrawn and so I wonder if anyone else has an alternative indoor environment for when the weather is unkind ? Otherwise I fear that we are back to meeting in pub carparks or the likes unless you know differently ?

As a result, these meetings will tend to be more of a social "chat and look" arrangement than anything else until the "Summer" comes along and so might well attract fewer visitors.

Just my viewpoint, not anyone elses mate

Would love for it to be different though

I could maybe organise a date where gets the exclusive use of the ramp hire place for day.

obvisously would have to speak to owner and arrange prices and stuff.
but maybe one for future.

its got 3 ramps so it could be worth every chipping in if enough work needed doing.

Could always see about the ingelton round 2 meet?

juat read ya response critch sounds a good idea that mate

That sounds like an option worth exploring Critch

. He might not be prepared to do the job for less than commercial rates though and so for you to book it at £10 per hour for 3 ramps for say 4 hours, might seem a bit "expensive" at what would be £120 for maybe half a dozen members on a Sunday, but maybe not, I guess it would be down to what they wanted to do

Granted though, you can bet the landlord would be likely to have a different view altogether as to what was a viable "deal" as far as we might be concerned

BUT the idea certainly has to be worth exploring and pricing fella !
