Scottish meeting??

Post by Murf » Mon Dec 06, 2004 8:17 pm

i went to an MR2OC meeting yeaterday and it was pretty cool seeing all the other cars, thinking about this i decided that it was high time a scots 480 meet was organised!
anyone got any ideas of venues or dates or simply say whether you are interested in attending!

personally i was thinking that the end of january would be good with maybe strathclyde country park as a venue.
i will be attending (of course) and i'm sure vandegraaf will be there as well. anyone else got any suggestions??

date, 1st weekend in feb

Hey everyone!
Totally good idea- if Strathclyde Country park suits i'm sure my folks wouldn't mind playing host to our little gathering! They live nearby there...
just need to track down some of the others... ;)
