Well, its still some weeks away ........ but how about we farewell Winter and welcome the warmer Spring weather with a meet/drive.
I was thinking maybe Sunday 05 September ........ but, i am welcome to any other ideas.
Would anyone else be interested?

Way to go, Matthew !

We've just had the coldest and most miserablest couple of days all Winter and you're looking ahead ! Good idea.

This weekend was the first couple of days together in ages that I couldn't have my roof down at all ! Very depressing. I guess with the drought and all, Winter has been unusually mild and we've been a little spoilt.

Count me in, I'm up for it !

Count me in!!

In the mean time, the 206gti.net crew will have their drive day this coming Sunday 25th July. I'm not sure if I can make it though.

I've posted the details in a new thread.

Hi

I cant make it on Sep 5th as I will be away....maybe the week after?

I already can imagine the drive....top down, wind in our hair and the air-con NOT turned up at full blast to 23 degrees to ensure we're thawing!!!

Os - The 206gti.net guys must have access to my diary or something. So far, everytime I plan a trip to Melbourne they organise a meet/drive !

So, yes - I'm in Melbourne again this weekend.

Liane - I didn't get to the French Car Meet. The weather looked foul, I'd been out quite late the night before, and my car was real dirty (these are not necessarily related). So, neither the car nor me was up for a show.

Are we going to try to work out a day that suits us all ?

Aside from this weekend, I'm pretty free most weekends.

Well, the 5th September was just my initial suggestion. If by delaying it by 1 week or 2 means we get more CC's turning up, then thats gotta be a good thing.
Anyway it is still some weeks away, so let me know your thoughts and then we can start planning this thing.
Regards,
Mathew

Why not just delay your honeymoon for the drive?

Sat might be better as Liane has to work on Sundays. BUT maybe she can swap her work days if we give her sufficient notice.

MR2SLY · Post by **MR2SLY** » Mon Aug 16, 2004 11:36 am

It would suit Liane better on a Saturday, so if we change the proposed date to Saturday 11th September ....... who's in ???

Sat or Sun are good for me.
