Northampton Club meetings

(1/11) > >>

missroadrage:
it has been noticed that less people seem to be attending the northants pub meet since it moved to Overstone.... trying to find out if it is location or night that is a problem for people.

Looking at other area meets there seems to be very little on the third week of the month in the localish area... if we move it back to a monday would more come?

first week would put off Hinckley lads & lasses, 2nd week is B'ham not sure if any of them would come down? last week is coventry area so some that used to come from there don't now.


I realise that frank is not able to attend on a monday but unfortunately if 10 can come for 1 not to it seems wrong to deny the others.


Any suggestions as to where the meet could be moved to should be made by all on here with a possible vote for a final decision.

If the meet is moved & Frank feels unable to continue as Rep would anyone else consider taking the role over.

I personally would prefer it to be closer to the M1 as I am travelling about 70 miles each way at the moment but enjoy the company so don't want to have to stop coming.... If anyone knows where there is good food and special offers then please let them be known. I wouldn't mind the trip to the Overstone as much if the food was better quality!!

Frankie-Boy:

If anyone feels the same as Carole please feel free to take over the role of local rep as obviously I'm not capable of doing the job any more.

I therefore resign as Northants Regional Rep as from now.

landroverkeith:
Overstone Manor has been the home of the Northants meet for a long time, Never had and issues with the food there myself out of the 4 places we have tried I think its far superior

weve been to both the pubs on billing one served cold food and u had to que at the bar for hours to get a drink! let alone trying to park
the 2nd pub was ok but the landlady thought she was the ruler of the world and was far to restrictive
the Greyhound is nice but its a bit cramped for us all and the food is pretty expensive
and the Worlds End is tiny





 

missroadrage:
I believe that Northampton has more than 4 pubs.... lets try to find somewhere new!!

If no one agrees the vote will show that & I will just have to eat before I go or not come down til I get a job!

Frank... no one has said you are not capable but there are a lot that used to come that don't now & it's a shame...

I was hoping for a sensible discussion with involvement from people we rarely see like Minty, Lurch, Lifted Disco, Stuart, Hightower, Hissy, JAS278, Dr Neil, and DOD51E.

If you feel you cannot continue to arrange a meeting then I am very sorry!!

Frankie-Boy:

I think that if it all depends on you Carole having to travel all those miles, I'd rather stand down than see you unhappy, you rearrange the meet that isn't even in your area to suit yourself, thats fine by me, I'm fed up with it all anyway.
