Calling Essex Folk
As for location i was thinking of somewhere like Braintree Freeport? Fairly central, ample parking also good facilities like cinema, bowling retaurants etc.
Perhaps other members would like to add their input on a possible meet/venue?

Sounds good to me altho I have no idea about getting around Braintree…I'm at the Barking end of Essex and brought up in Brentwood.
I go out and about in my mk1 and never see anyone else..would love to be spotted in the 'spotted' section one day *sigh* 8O

Get yourself onto the M11 and pick up the A120 at J8 Stansted Airport is one way.
A12 to Witham and follow signs to Braintree gets you there too
Freeport well signposted

I'm from kent, but I would possibly travel to a meet in Essex if it was in the south of the county, as it's not that far to travel from where I'm located, and as of yet a Kent meet has not materialised.
Mike.
Mike…a mini convoy is in order then! :dance: :cheer:

I'll jump on that bandwagon as well if a few of us are going across.

I would say we have enough interest for a meet.
Is everyone happy with the location? I only suggested it as it is an area i know well. any other ideas?
To give others from the Kent area an idea of travelling times if their not sure - From braintree i can get to lakeside in 35 min(new A120 link from the M11 is great), and I have family in the Edenbridge area with takes about 50 min to an hour on a reasonable run.
As for date there's two bank holiday weekends in may or a sunday/saturday???? your thoughts.
Cheers
