First Ever UK Meet - Sign Up Here!!

vivekk · 11-05-2005, 10:16 AM

I'm sorry to say my friend who works for the small video production company isn't going to make the meet on Saturday, because of work commitments. I'll try to find someone else who might be interested in filming & videoing our cars.

That's a great line up for the first meet! Really looking forward to meeting everyone and seeing your E90's

I'm going to convoy with webcoll from the South if anyone wants to join us?

See you there!

JonMad · 11-06-2005, 04:02 AM

Whereabouts within Donnington Park?

vivekk · 11-06-2005, 07:22 AM

I'll convoy with 1stnewcar if hes' up for it?

booforty · 11-06-2005, 08:17 AM

Good point JonMad

I suppose we meet in the main carpark area near the museum? Can anyone else confirm best place to meet?

vivekk · 11-06-2005, 11:49 AM

Meeting up at 2pm will give us about 2 hours of remaining daylight, for taking photos etc.
Does everyone think that's ok, or should we meet a little earlier?

booforty · 11-07-2005, 05:49 AM

I think 2pm should be ok, this time suited everyone who's said yes. And two hours of daylight should be more than enough!

If anyone feels strongly about meeting earlier, shout out now!

I don't finish work till 7am that Sat Morning

2pm is ok - just - maybe a little sleeeeeepy.

vivekk · 11-07-2005, 02:15 PM

Ok- 2pm it is then.

I spoke to another friend about coming with me to Donington for our meet.
He works for the IT department of a local college & has told me he will bring along the DV (broadcast quality) camera & the 12 megapixel stills camera!

So, any ideas for a short film and photo shoot?

We could recreate some of the scenes from the Italian Job but with our E90's!!!!

vivekk · 11-08-2005, 02:34 PM

Nice!
The clear indicators will make our US friends cry!

booforty · 11-09-2005, 01:41 PM

Viv,

You've got some good contacts, can you organise a helicopter as well as the film crew? (!!)

vivekk · 11-09-2005, 03:41 PM

Hmm....my brother can fly a plane solo now- any use?

carl_d · 11-11-2005, 04:19 AM

Not going to make the meet chaps. Wife is sick and I'll be looking after kids.

booforty · 11-11-2005, 08:14 AM

Sorry to hear that Carl. Was looking forward to seeing your M Sport. Maybe next time?

Is everyone all set for tomorrow?

- Paul - · 11-11-2005, 08:37 AM

I can't make tomorrow, family issue.

Hope it goes well and apologies.

booforty · 11-11-2005, 10:15 AM

I think we should cancel. Only me, vivekk and webcoll left. Its a long trip and only worth it if there's reasonable attendance.

Any views?

booforty · 11-11-2005, 01:21 PM

Unfortunately the meet is cancelled.

We will organise another soon.

vivekk · 11-11-2005, 01:42 PM

Shame.
No matter- looking forward to it when it's sorted for next time.

- Paul - · 11-11-2005, 04:15 PM

I know I probably shouldn't be, but I'm quite pleased it's been cancelled - means I can make it to the first one, whenever that is.

sirees01 · 11-11-2005, 05:52 PM

shame it has fallen through guys, maube my car will be here for the next scheduled meet.

chin up chaps, s**t happens

jhbodle · 11-12-2005, 06:14 AM
