Ok everyone, i know there are a few of us as i wave a lot when im out and about! Really want to organise a monthly meet where we can all get together socially, chat about all things Landrover see each others trucks, etc etc
I run The Cherry Tree on Dereham Road, Norwich. NR5 8TD
http://www.marstonsinnsandtaverns.co.uk/Home/PlacestoEatandDrink/TwoforOne/CherryTree
Its a sad sad thing but we have been here for almost 5 months now, and apart from a few freelanders and the odd range rover, have never seen the green oval represented in our car park.
No defenders EVER! Sacrilage! So.....with the intention of restoring the balance and tipping it severely the way of the green oval, i propose a monthly meet!
Second Tuesday of the month starting Tuesday March 11th Could put a buffet on if people want??
We are also doing a charity week from Sunday March 9th to Saturday March 15th in aid of the guys and girls of East Anglia Air Ambulance, so maybe we could do something to tie in with this as a one off?? As we are likely to go offroad in our vehicles and have a greater chance of needing them at some point.
Perhaps a Landrover based charity auction? Open to suggestions?
Anyone interested in a monthly meet and can make Tueday 11th March let me know by emailing me at shancock04@hotmail.com
Thanks a lot!

Hi Steve
As local area rep for Mud Club, that sounds like a good plan to me!
As you have no doubt noticed, we have been made very welcome at the Skeyton Goat for the last few months. But your pub is much more central. So I, for one, would be happy to use your venue. Makes it even better if it's run by an enthusiast.
We have been seeing about 10 people on average, so not a huge turnout. So, I'd suggest to try without any special effort on the food front to start with and we can see how it goes.
But I think we can make this a date for March. Thanks for the suggestion. We will see if we can clog up your car park for you :lol:
-
Only problem i can see is the fact its Landies only.
Which would count at least half of the regulars to the Goat out, which would then meen 2 or 3 different groups meeting at different places and numbers would be reduced at all of them.
As a Mud Club Meet agree would probably work well there as more central.
Just my 2 Paj and 1 90's worth!!
-
All mud lovers more than welcome!
-
at least you wont get stuck in the carpark mutz
-
We (me and Houseboy and small noisy person) went up yesterday to say hello.
:dance:
-
Dereham Road...... :doh:
Is that south enough not to need a passport....
I have to say, that location suits me better..... shame our original location never took off really!
Anyway, Steve (publican man) how about some quality Jap stuff in ya carpark....?
-
Hmmm......well......if its QUALITY ja stuff :grin:
The more the merrier!!
-
how about a sponsored landy (or other 4x4) pull for charity? as they only weigh about 2 tons injuries should be kept to a minimum and as an extra gimmick it could be a simultaneous pull of all the different makes and marques we can get our hands on?
maybe get local paper involved too?
-
:roll:What a bunch of wimps, the lasses here, if you remember daughter, are pulling a John deere from Kirby Lonsdale to here, that's 15 miles up and down proper hills as well not like the flatlands of Norfolk here !!! :clap: :clap: :clap:
-
You can't say anything on here Didi..... you are being watched :lol:

Would be interested in making a meet or 2, as this place is much closer than Skeyton but we only have Jap 4x4's in this family :smiley: so that excludes us I suppose :-.
-
Certainly dosent. Alll mud lovers are welcome!
-
I've extended the invitation to the local Suzuki club too. Hope you don't mind Steve.
-
I am definately up for the pull..... rusty volunteers as a vehicle and boychild will steer as long as we're not on the public highway as he's only 14!!!
