Steve42 28th July 2014 16:55

Hi to you all from the area. I have not longed joined and I admit to not waving first but would always wave if waved to. Perhaps we should rekindle the old ancient act of saying hi to fellow members with a smile that says "don't panic we know what your going through".

Steve42 28th July 2014 18:02

Hello and welcome.
That made me laugh. We know what your going through

ken6760 28th July 2014 20:03

Well I'm in Earl Shilton and I very rarely see a 75 or ZT but always flash or wave when I do but it is never returned!

Steve42 28th July 2014 20:06

well if you see a moonstone green with a shark fin its me :D
so flash away(so to speak)

Xavier 28th July 2014 20:29

And if you see a Pearl Black 260 with a grinning naive bloke behind the wheel, then stop me a buy one or just wave.

starbug2 28th July 2014 21:21

tweek08 30th July 2014 23:11

Steve42 31st July 2014 02:10

I was a two cars back so don't even have a part reg number.

Count me in for a meet and my Dad (wolfie on here) he owns a Blue ZTT.

starbug2 31st July 2014 18:38

the more the merrier:}

Paulontour 31st July 2014 21:15

Count me in too if your having a meet sometime.

Steve42 31st July 2014 21:19

its looks like its heading that way

Xavier 2nd August 2014 15:42

To keep this alive how about the Milestone Pub on the perimeter road near Halfords as the location?

Just need date and time... ( invite them and they will come, well hopefully )

the windmill as we call it but never seen them move :duh:

Xavier 5th August 2014 20:21

The windmill is correct. So now we need a role call and a date and time..........

Anthony & Maricel 5th August 2014 23:04

I am interested :}

Steve42 6th August 2014 03:53

just a thought do we need to move this to the meeting thread

starbug2 6th August 2014 19:14

if available on the date as we often have stuff on , to many events not enough weekends , weekdays are very pop luck as i can't say in advance what time i get home :o being a long distance delivery driver

Xavier 7th August 2014 23:09

Can a mod move this the meeting area please....

Can we lock it down to a date and time. It would be great to know who is in the same boat oops no I mean with the same passion for Rover / MG ZT's.......

Steve42 8th August 2014 06:31

I have to work weekends so that's out for me.
wed and thur are the best for me .
i miss most shows because of this .

Be interested to join your meet up, if not intruding, never around locally at weekends either and Hinckley is just up the road...

Xavier 13th August 2014 21:02

more the merrier in my opinion and a weekday sounds just the ticket. Maybe a Wednesday or Thursday.

Just need a date and I would suggest one in September.

Steve42 13th August 2014 21:13

sounds good to me

milestone pub or the windmill pub as its known as .is looking high on the list to meet up.
big car park round the back and easy to get to.

tweek08 13th August 2014 21:17

I would love to come to a meet up as long as my car is back on the road and yes I do have short arms and deep pockets :D I know that pub well halfrauds is across from them :D :getmecoat:

Steve42 13th August 2014 21:25

may do loads of trade with all the rovers parked up.:D

i tried this the other day, seen another MG ZT-T in black with the 17" MK2 alloys looked just like mine, i Gave a huge wave, they just looked at me like I was losing the plot.

Agree with you and Steve42, but, every so often, you get a friendly wave and smile back, although, since I joined, I have only come across one other fellow member's car....so, the "losing the plot" scenario, is the most common......nevertheless, persevere....

Steve42 23rd August 2014 18:14

for those that was interested
 
looks like we are on for the 27 August 8pm at the windmill pub Hinckley by the Halfords store.

Sword Drive
Hinckley
LE10 0GL


look forward to seeing you there . for those that can not make it all been well there will be another meet if there is enough interest

thanks all

Xavier 26th August 2014 21:05

Steve42 26th August 2014 21:12
