Yes, was a brilliant day for it.. same here.. wish we could have stayed longer as well.. was great to meet you guys.. and some very very nice vans!! Once again thanks to fish for sorting my headlights, your a star.. thanks!!!
 
I have been thinking about planning a few meeting for members to put names to faces,. chat about our pride n joys, look at mods, ask questions etc. But overall to just have a nice time with a common interests. Obviously families, kids and friends more than welcome.
Set up an event shelter / fiamma / open awnings for tea, coffee and cake, fridge for beer n wine for those not driving) and if anyone else is willing a couple of cooking BBQ’s for lunch etc..(BYO)
I am a annual member of the national trust and some of you maybe or have considered being national trust members.
The reason for National trust sites, some members may travel over an hour to get to the meet and I wouldn’t want it to be in a carpark type where there is nothing else to do.. this way members, kids etc can enjoy the settings, explore the manors and play areas etc but also:
1. Easy to find
2. Open all day
3. Toilets /cafe facilities etc
(Also, if no-one turns up, then I'm not sat in Morrison's carpark with nothing to do apart from slag you all off)

With this in mind I would contact various trust sites around the west midlands area to ask if they are happy for a T6F meet.
Maybe multiple meets at different times to give all an opportunity to come alone if they wish too.

I am willing to do it if I am free there will be me the little one and I suppose I will have to bring the wife to. I have never been to a meeting before so it will be good.

All are welcome mate.. just enjoy the location with family.. you don't have to sit talking vans for hours.. my little girl comes with me and we have a look round the gounds and make the most of the day. If Others are there then bonus.. today we had a look around Attingham house with @BiTurbo , was lovely weather so enjoyed it.
 
Yer good day for us too, always good to meet new people. One of the last vehicles on the car park then headed to Cardingmill valley for coffee and cake. As you do!

Definitely going to the Chirk Castle meet in Wrexham on the 15th of July.
Camping 35 miles away at Rynys Farm Camping Site in Betws-y-Coed on the Saturday night.

Any idea how many people are going to this meet and what time we should get there?

Cheers in advance :)
