I'll be there. :mrgreen: Paul, why Cheshire 1 and Cheshire 2? Surely the north west section is supposed to encompass Cheshire, G.Manchester and Lancashire, not just Cheshire :dontknow:
I suggested it in case someone wants to restart the meets at The Wiggin Tree and call those NWM19, NWM20, etc.

I'm at the point of despondency here, all I'm trying to do is resurrect the NW meets after they declined last year. I invited opinions, gave plenty of time and carefully counted who wants a meet where, to come up with Preston Brook. It seems that I can't please all the people, all the time.
Anyway, I posted this a while back:
As far as place goes, counting up the above gives:
Preston Brook 5
Wiggan Tree 2 (holeinmk1 I counted you too)
either 1
So, its:
Place: Preston Brook pub
Directions: just off Junction 11 M56, follow the A56 through Preston Brook village, pass the large O2 building on the left then the pub is on the right. Watch for the speed camera, its 30mph limit!
Date: Sunday 15th April
Time: 1pm and onwards
I'll be doing my best to be there at 1pm on 15th April.
Thanks Paul, thats easier for me coming from North Wales. I'll be there is the car passes its MOT for the summer.

The fact in my opinon of all different types of dubs meeting up is good idea but this is as it has been stated ia a mk1 golf forum only.
To goto a meet and see a sea of mk1's only would be excellent, i want to learn from others in mk1's and get how-tos etc plus see members in person and there cars in flesh, discuss mods etc.
I am not slaging other vdubs off by all means, loads are stunning motors, I even only let vdubs out in traffic, i have respect for them all.
But as this would be my 1st mk1 meet, mk1's only would be excellent.
Oh well see how it goes

I'm a definite!!!
I'd be even more definite if it was a 6am meet then a NWM cruise down to Santa Pod for Spring GTI (There's still time to organise it ) Anyway, given the number of people who've posted on this thread NWM18 sounds like it's going to be its own little Spring GTI only without the strip and pretty painful drive. Looking forward to seeing the Mk2s and various other stuff that seems to turn up to that meet!!!!!

I'm staying at a travelodge though, i'm not camping. I prefer to wash and poo in sanitary conditions!! :mrgreen:
so if anyone has any ideas of time/ where to meet i think it'd be brillo pads!!!
Gary is now garaged, Baby is on her way.
Next up is marriage, Who knows when i'll get him out to play!

Well I'm hoping my golf will be out of the paint shop.. its only been in there 4 months!uch:! I'm actually meeting up with the Dub - marines.. when i get down there (got a few good mates on there). But i think it'd be brilliant to have a MK1 convoy down there!!

Are you saying there's another regional meet, somewhere else, on the same day, that you're off to instead? I know there's SWM20 and GTI Spring Festival on the same day, its the time of the year when there's loads going on etc.

I meant when we get to pod!!
Ummmmmm but the Pod isn't in the North West?
Anyway…..
Despite Spring GTI Festival going on, hopefully we'll see a good turn out of people on Sunday, it will be the 'debut' event for my newly-converted Golf GTI and if that isn't working, my other Mk1 is, so I'll definitely be in a Mk1 this time! I've not checked the weather yet, hopefully it will be as sunny as today.
