[suprasteve]

Guys, sounds cool is this a private thing or can new members like myself come along , would like to meet all the 'old timers' (snigger, snigger)

[Martin F]

It's open to all members old and new, that's one of the reasons why we try to hold it fairly central (Rugby to be exact).

More details to follow.

Chris, what beer does the hotel have?

Drinkable.................just ask Baz http://www.mkivsupra.co.uk/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[Chris Rocks]

err...

on tap I think Stella/Fosters

load of bottle beers too

i`ll find out and post it up.

-c-

[Cuthbert]

I personally only drink bitter (cask ale preferably). Bottled ales would be sufficient though http://www.mkivsupra.co.uk/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[Chris Rocks]

I shall ask....lol

I`m just annoyed there`s no Guinness on tap http://www.mkivsupra.co.uk/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

-c-

[Cuthbert]

Funnily enough I tried that *extra cold Guinness* or whatever it's called the other week, & I have to say it hit the spot just like ale does. I really can't stand lager (read - pop) of any kind.

[Chris Rocks]

might have to get Darrell to put a keg of Guinness on http://www.mkivsupra.co.uk/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

Off the subject of alcohol, is anybody going to be popping into Thor this time? i know a few were thinking of it for the summer meet but he was fully booked, would be good to get a group booking or summet if they do that kind of thing.

[baz]

there seams to be a rumour that i may have a drink problem when it comes to msoc meets!!!!!!!!!


i'll have to lay this rumour to rest at the xmas party and not drink!!!!!!!!!












like hell!!!!!!!!!!!! http://www.mkivsupra.co.uk/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/buttrock.gif bring on the stella!!!!!!!!!

Re: Thor

We are hoping to offer something in the morning, if we can't get in at Thor then we may visit a Go-Kart track or something http://www.mkivsupra.co.uk/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

Will try and sort out some times closer to the event, so those that only want to turn up for the afternoon can meet us direct at the hotel.

[Remo]

what's thor?

[Martin F]

http://www.thor-racing.co.uk/

They have one of the better dyno facilities in the country and are only a stones throw away from where we are holding the meet.

[Remo]

so what sort of price are we looking at for this party? Roomwise and ticket wise i mean.

[~Rob~]

Remo, the summer meet was a fiver for the BBQ and if you wanted to stay over at the hotel there was a special rate available. think it was about ?35 for the hotel room but dont quote me. Im sure Chris will pop up some prices soon enough!

[Martin F]

Chris is away at the moment, but should get some prices when he's back.

We are looking at something like a carvery this time with the obligatory turkey (other choices including veggie as well), more details to follow.

Have one question to ask so will put a poll up in the off-topic section in a minute.

Just wondering if there were any developments on the subject of Thor or a morning activity? if not im going to book myself in a Thor, i may as well pop in while im in the area!

[Chris Rocks]

in all honesty there probably isn`t going to be time to organise a sizeable meet at Thor.

I`d imagine a few people might head over prior to the meet, but the majority of people I`d guess would be turning up at the Hotel between 11-12...

on a sat you`re looking at about 30-40 mins to get from Thor > Hillmorton Manor Hotel.


-c-

[Chris Rocks]

I`ll probably be over at Thor tomorrow, I`ll ask pete how many people he could accomodate from say 9-12 and we can get some names of people interested.

cheers

[suprarob]

I,m up for a morning at Thor
I,d like a power run and a few things checked out

[Chris Rocks]

ok i`ll start another thread concerning a pre-meet at Thor in the morning.

Would have went, but I have a BIG birthday on the 5th and too much organising to do etc, Good luck hope its a grand night! http://www.mkivsupra.co.uk/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[Chris Rocks]

just to let people know there are only a few rooms left if you`re planning on staying over I`d book something asap.

there is an IBIS further down the road should all the rooms at the Hillmorton Manor Hotel be booked up.

Shame Chief, would be nice to meet you. But I guess it's a fair trek over here (even more so than my journey)

[j333ssa]

Hey Guys

I'm local to Rugby (I live in Warwick) so I'll be sure to meet you there for a lunch and chat. I drive a low mileage 96 White MKIV (had it for about 3 years) and have lurked on owners groups boards for a while now.

Hillmorton Hotel is pretty much next to where my ex worked so I'll have no problem finding it etc. Im up for attending a lunch and getting to know you people (especially if your local). I see a few Supra round these parts but never got the chance to talk.

If anyone wants to join up prior in Warwick and gumball it to Thor (I had my car derestricted and Scorpion Exhaust fitted there) be sure to mail me: info@jezworld.com.

Hope to see you there. I'll be in this:

[Barney]

Jez?

Glad you can make it, look forward to meeting you http://www.mkivsupra.co.uk/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/buttrock.gif

Lost count of job applications etc ive made in the last year most with no reply ?http://www.mkivsupra.co.uk/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif ?thought i'd got myself sorted with an American comp who are big in the aerospace world, had a grt interview the job looked a doddle from what ive been used to in the engineering world but they came back to my agent with sorry we think he'd be a liability on the shop floor.

Oh well im still looking and poss thinking of re training to do something else, any ideas http://www.mkivsupra.co.uk/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/rock.gif
Think i'll have to start my own something or other up at this rate,,,, and to rub some salt in the wounds some more !! that nice house in the US looks like its going pearshaped as well and could be for sale very soon http://www.mkivsupra.co.uk/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif
+ my car is still sat in my garage with missfire.

Dunk, really sorry to hear your news, being disabled myself I really feel for you regarding the job situation. The best positive advice I can give you is contact your local Job Centre and talk to someone who works for the "Back to Work Team" or similar. They help people like us to find work and although in my case, they have advised me that medicaly I'm not in a position to work they have given me a lot of support in all possible areas.

Again, sad to hear your business venture in the States is looking somewhat shakey, hang in there fella I'm sure things will come good for you..........wishing you the very best of luck on both fronts.

If it's of any use, regarding the xmas meet, I would be more than happy to pick you up on the Saturday/drop you home on the Sunday, and as Karen is no longer going I still have a double room booked so if you don't mind sharing and Darrell can sort out two single beds (gotta draw the line there! ) it's a free weekend all round, all you would need is a bit of dosh for the meal and a few beers......how about it fella ??

[j333ssa]

Woah - add me to the list but I cant come to the meal or stay over. I'll see some of you at Thor as I'll come along to be nosey.

I think they're doing about 10mins every day. http://www.mkivsupra.co.uk/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif There is a small chance that it could be ready, it was nearly half stripped a week & a half ago. But I wont hold my breath.

lol..you wanna get someone older working on it.

Hey guys

Nice meeting you all - I found you all very friendly and really enjoyed the day. I especially enjoyed the "cruise" over to Rugby. What a feeling driving within a squadron of Supras - superb. Food was great and if I wasnt suffering from a hangover the previous night I probably would have been able to hold a decent conversation...

I'll definitly be attending the next event and will probably be speaking with some of you guys soon. I need to talk further with Dunk about my white WORK wheels which seem to suffer each winter...
BTW - have pictures too so will happily host mine plus others if we want to add them to a gallery etc.

"Chris R thinks he can give the Supe's a run for their money..."

[j333ssa]

Hey Dunk - likewise! Hope you enjoyed the evening.

Was looking at my WORKS wheels and yep they defos need sorting good and proper.

So if anyone has a spare set of wheels that I can borrow for a bit I would be more than keen to talk to you.

Jez

[Chris Rocks]

the coin hit me on the back of the head...lol
