Hi all,

As I'm giving organising a go I thought I'd list a couple of regular pub meets that I currently attend. This would be the easiest way to meet up with new people and not be only a group or 2 or so. (Not that there's anything wrong with that )

I organised and attend monthly a meeting at the Triton Inn at Brantingham (HU15 1QE), which is close to South Cave/Hull and Beverley. I only started it up in the late summer but by the second meeting had various cars including a Ferrari 348, Porsche 996 GT2, several TVR's and a VXR220. It is attended mainly by people off of Pistonheads.com, and the East Yorks lot are a good bunch, with anyone being welcome.

This is held on the 3rd Monday of every month from 7pm onwards. So, the next ones are:

16th February 2009
16th March 2009
20th April 2009

I will also be organising a run out on a weekend off the back of this meeting around March/April time and will post up details.

The other Pistonheads meeting that I have attended is in Leeds (BD11 1JJ), just off the M62, at the Railway Pub in Drighlington. This is again from 7pm onwards and is on the 2nd Monday night of each month, so:

9th March 2009
13th April 2009

The busiest event I went to last summer had nearly 40 cars including a Lancia Stratos replica, a smattering of Ferraris, a Lambo Gallardo, a fully prepped Escort rally car and loads of other fine machinery. I turned up in my then 'N' reg Audi A6 quattro estate and people had no qualms with that at all and everyone chatted on an equal ground.

As I've only had my MR2 since September I really want to take it to as many meets as possible and if anyone else would be interested in making any of these dates then post up here and I'll make sure I get to them!

Also, if anyone has any possibly venue choices/locations for MR2 only meets then please feel free to post them up here. Whether it be York, Leeds, Sheffield or Hull area I can travel to any. Also, if anyone south of the Humber, ie. Lincoln area, wanted to meet then feel free!

Sorry for the long opening post!

Cheers
Tom
