Christmas Meet chat thread

[THE_Liam]

I don't wanna be going over 400miles just to have a drink with you guys :/ if its that far its unlikely I will come

It's not gonna be that far from you wherever it is, Leeds isn't that far from you and we're not having it in Leeds, much as I'd love that.

We're working on something that suits everyone as well as possible

Im meaning 200+ miles up and 200 back pugfest was around that I can get around 460 miles to a tank! So if I'm doing more then that its gonna cost me a stupid amount ! £75 too fill it up

I know how you feel! 520 mile round trip to FCS at 32mpg

It's the price we pay for living out of the way of the overpopulated, overpriced south and south east. It's totally worth it.

Northern Ireland meet please

Suits me, got family there, and Belfast in terms of driving miles is only actually 80 miles for me, rest of it is ferry

I don't go often to be fair, and when I do I fly. I only get the ferry if I'm going to Mayo, then I drive from Dun Laoghaire. Belfast is a place everyone should see at least once, in the company of locals. Then you can see how much shite the UK media talks about what it's like there, and see how it really is. Inspiring and horribly unfair in equal measures.

Couldn't have said it better myself. My old Mans girlfriend lives in NI and I go there a fair bit (not been for s few years sadly) I must say its one of the friendliest places in the UK and never felt out of place, unlike London etc.

Exactly. I'm only half Irish, but always feel more comfortable and happier in Belfast or Dublin than London. Maybe because my English half is Yorkshire, and we never feel comfortable in London, and because Irish people are very proud of their roots and that came from my Irish side, but English people aren't quite as fervent about it so I never got the equivalent from the English side...

Whereabouts do you stay? I've family in Short Strand.

[Pebbles167]

They most certainly are proud of their roots!

I stay somewhere not too far from Stormont, I'll find out for definite where. Spent a fair bit of time in Carrickfergus too

[Poodle]

I need this to be in Southampton this year, sorry Sian, but the decisions already been made. Me and a mate both agree its a good idea, so thats that really. It's not that I can't afford it, more that i'm f*cking selfish tbh, such is life eh.

Thats fine by me lol only 118 miles to Southampton !

[Midnightclub]

[Pebbles167]

Can't do Southampton. Allergies.

[THE_Liam]

Look guys, its gonna be somewhere that's sensible for everyone within reason, a best compromise. It won't be on the south coast because that's too far for people from Yorkshire for example. Likewise, it won't be Norwich because that's too far for people from the west country. However, people from Yorkshire or the west country will always have to travel further, because we live away from where the majority of members live. The priorities are price, motorway links and average travelling distance.

[Pebbles167]

Everyone is just pulling your chain Liam, were just making jokes whist bored . I mean of course its not like I cant go to Southampton because I'm allergic. I cant go because I'm banned.

[silverzx]

Somewhere near Castle Combe should be fine.

[Pebbles167]

Lol, may as well tie it in with the Wiltshire meet then.

This is why I said Gloucester or Cheltenham no one listens to me though lol

Who says no-one listens to you? A decision hasn't been made yet, and were listening to everyone. The whole point of this is a compromise, and more than anything were listening to who's coming to be honest.

Hmmm true! I'm not fussed as long as its under a 400 mile trip lol

Why of course! How else would one stare down ones nose derisively at peasants in French vehicles?
