Default London Meets

There never seems to be any meets in London. So I was thinking of putting together a meet for those living within the M25. Taking the area's of London North, South, West and East. My aim is to try and arrange a meet in each area every other month.
We could meet in the evenings or at the weekend. A time that suits nearly everyone, there always be someone who will be put out.
So thinking caps on chaps. Know anywhere where we can hold an informal meet?
I know of a few places. Ace cafe in Park Royal and another site in Finchley close to the North Circular. Fairlop Waters in Barkingside.
Now rather than clog up this site with suggestions can you pm me with your ideas/suggestions. If you have a post code it will help. I then will go and check out the venue.
I'm sure that some members from outside the M25 will come along and support our meets.

Great idea Bob I did mention Ace Cafe to Stevemac a while ago but not sure what progress has been made, they are happy to host us and can take up to 40 vehicles only stipulation is that we buy or food and drinks from them, having eaten there I can vouch that its good quality and reasonablely priced.

Hi andy it looks interesting in fact not disimilar to caldecote arms in MK where we had a very successful meet last sunday & 23 cars plus owners turned up !!! T4 was available and lot were regassed by friend of Phil916 and the pub does a two for one deal on food, so if your place is something like that I suspect a lot of members would be very interested I would for one and Bob too Im sure

Ok I'll start looking at venues next week. September is a busy month for me. Every weekend I'm at various meets. However I will check out suggestions in the week and report back.

Take your time Bob we know you lead a very busy life and the fact you even prepared to have a go at this is impressive, so we should wait patiently I'm sure it will be to your usual high standards whatever you organize

At this rate you will have to widen the door so that I can get my head through.
I'm passionate about these meets and I feel not enough is done down 'sarf to cater for our London members.
