Probably because we had a meet quite recently but that's nothing to stop us having another one.

There's quite a few of us in Darlo (Me, Lecky_Pete, Darlo_Nick (funnily enough) and DennisK (although Dennis has a fairly large amount of coop trouble at the moment)) and Panic and Pag are not far away either.

I'd be up for a meet, especially as I missed the last get together.

Re: Darlington..... - 03/11/2006 05:46

Lets have one then

Paul
I think you've owned your coop long enough now and need to sell it to me?

Jo
By any chance is your mum called Jean?

Dennis
Sorry

Re: Darlington..... - 16/11/2006 15:11

should be fine here too but carparks are starting to get full wherever you go in and around town now. Best I can suggest is prob somewhere around Mac Dees at Morton park right in a corner somewhere

Just spotted this thread.

No need to be sorry mate. I pick the blue bitch back up from Motormech this Monday - complete with new Pace FMIC & rad, new front disks & pads, new thermostat...

...oh, and a new engine and minus a kidney

As for dates, depends if the meet is during the day or evening. I can make the 25th if its during the day and the 26th if its during the evening. All my other weekends are pretty much unbooked.

Morton Park at Maccy D's would be a scream as we can point and laugh at the rest of the Nova's and Paxo's. Another alternative is Teesside Park on a Wednesday night as its supposedly quite busy there on that night with the (badly) modified car locals.

P.S. If any of you are out in town next Saturday night, be on the lookout for a load of lads wearing very peculiar outfits.

Re: Darlington..... - 20/11/2006 18:06

Ok, What about Teesside Park this Wednesday night at 7.30?

Yes / No ???!!!!

Re: Darlington..... - 20/11/2006 18:11

I wish i was in Darlo during the week, Teeside Park on a Wednesday would be a right laugh!
Posted By: Anonymous

Re: Darlington..... - 20/11/2006 18:28

On the wrong shift this week for Teeside park, but Sat or Sun afternoon at Morton Park would be ok for me.

Maybe last chance for you all to see my poorly bonnet (for sale if yours is worse!!) as getting Vince to spray my new one & fit my side skirts (LE type).

Also, why dont we do morton Park on Saturday too?!!!! What time is best for everyone??!!

Re: Darlington..... - 21/11/2006 01:04

for wed it would be even funnier if we meet before teesside park somewhere and then a whole load of coupes enter tesside park together hahah the paxos and novas will be gutted haha!

Re: Darlington..... - 21/11/2006 05:22

I would be up for this Wednesday evening or next. We could meet up at Morton Park first and convoy in.

We could make it a semi regular thing. Say every month or six weeks or so. In my old owners club we used to have a meet pretty much every Sunday.

Re: Darlington..... - 21/11/2006 23:25

Please don't take this the wrong way but I was expecting this to be more of a meet up for a pint and maybe a bite to eat. We all know that the saxos and novas are only toys for little people to play with.

Re: Darlington..... - 21/11/2006 23:45

We can still do that too, but I thought tomorrow night was just going to be a bit of an impromptu gathering of whoever can make it at such short notice. I'm only planning on staying for around an hour or so.

Re: Darlington..... - 22/11/2006 00:02

Re: Darlington..... - 22/11/2006 00:45

LOL @ Panic. I won't be able to do the midweek meet as need to be curled up with my pipe and slippers once it gets dark on a schoolnight but will see what people fancy doing on Saturday.

Re: Darlington..... - 22/11/2006 02:01

Type in the postcode DL1 4PJ into Multimap and it will show you the location of Morton Park. When you come off the B6280 at the roundabout, take the right at the next roundabout and right again at the next. This will take you into the McDonalds car park where you will no doubt see the usual motley collection of chavs, Nova's and Paxo's.

I can't make this Saturday night as I'll be out in town celebrating my birthday (which is tomorrow!).

I actually popped by Morton Park around 19:30 on the off chance as my gf needed to get to a cash point. No Coupe's there, but i didn't really expect any at such a short notice.

Re: Darlington..... - 24/11/2006 05:45

Is anyone going to turn up Sat or Sun, did anything happen Wed?

Like the idea of lunch & a drive out but think it's too short a notice now, better in Spring?

Am working until 3 over w/end so if we could meet after 4????

Hope Wishy & Solas had a descent meet.

Doesn't bode well for Darlo as a coupe hotspot!

Re: Darlington..... - 27/11/2006 00:37

Nope - you're right - we're not renowned for our meets up North I met up with Solas and Wishy earlier this year and had a good drive and lunch in vgood weather Why don't some of the Darlo coopsters come down for the SYorks meet on the 9th?
