View Full Version : Monthly Meet Up?
Skatiechik 06-07-2006, 15:30 I was wondering if it would be good if the SFCCC (ok I have nicknamed us SFCCC = Sheffield Forum Classic Car Club) could start a monthly meet up? Perhaps the 1st Monday in every month or something similiar.
I am not sure where though? I would suggest a more traditional pub where you can sit down and natter perhaps get some pub grub, and not have blaring music or football. Oh and a safe car park and easy location would be essential. Village location somewhere?
Just an idea. Any thoughts?
goldenfleece 06-07-2006, 20:08 GREAT idea...count me in.....what about a place out in Derbyshire.....Edale of somewhere like that.....
what about a tea shop, up on the moors possibly?
fab idea xxx
If you could make it a weekend that would be more suitable. I really can't make weekdays as I never know what time I will finish work. Good idea though.
Theres a nice pub at Owler Bar roundabout called The Moorlands. It's a very nice pub with a hugh carpark and very nice food. Not too far from Sheffield either.
the mg classic cars meet at the other pub at owler bar is it the peacock or something? big car park any way, no longer got a classic car so i'm not wanted anymore.
I have never been in that pub. Have driven past it millions of times and never gone in.
Skatiechik 10-07-2006, 09:31 Owler Bar is in Totley? Sorry I didn't know so looked at a map. Shall we make a list of who is interested and then set a time/date?
goldenfleece 10-07-2006, 09:42 Count me in......weekends great......
If it's a weekend you can count me & liam in.
Owler bar isn,t quite Totley. It is classed as Derbyshire but you go through Totley to get there!
goldenfleece 11-07-2006, 10:37 There's a good pub there called THE MOORLANDS I think.....very big and enormous car park..
goldenfleece 17-07-2006, 20:39 are we going to get this all together? What about fixing up the first one before the end of the month....
Skatiechik 18-07-2006, 13:23 Just to say I can't do the weekend of the 29th/30th or the 6th/7th. How about Sunday the 13th August early evening/late afternoon. Say 4/5pm? Or it could even be this coming weekend depending on how people are fixed.
I am not familiar with the venue, but perhaps someone who is could just give them a ring to check they aren't closed for refurbishment, etc on that day and that food will be avaliable.
We can't do weekend 29th/30th as we are showing at Bamford. We are also on holiday at the end of August for 2 weeks. We are also busy this weekend.
Food is avaliable all day every day and I don't think they need a refurbishment just yet!
there is also a vw show in nottingam on the 30th!!
and southyorkshire dubd meet on the 13th of aug!!
Skatiechik 23-07-2006, 21:09 We can't do weekend 29th/30th as we are showing at Bamford. We are also on holiday at the end of August for 2 weeks. We are also busy this weekend.
Food is avaliable all day every day and I don't think they need a refurbishment just yet!
How does the 13th sound to you?
Good good if you are familiar with the pub all the better.
Now the decision will be what classic to take, and what is deemed a classic in everyone elses eyes :)
make it early on the 13th and i will come!!
Well we can take the Sierra and the Fiesta. I Know they are not classics in everyones eyes but they are in ours.
goldenfleece 25-07-2006, 16:03 And I can also bring my trusty gold Fiesta, either the W or X reg......
Skatiechik 25-07-2006, 16:54 What time is best for people? I will make a fresh new thread for maximum promotion when we decide everything.
bernie54 26-07-2006, 01:00 I Am Interested, I Can Make The 13th
Lets make it the 13th then
early on..
i need to be at chatsworth house at 4!!!
you are all welcome to come down to chatsworth with me??
make a day of it??
osborn snr 29-07-2006, 23:48 wot about the plough at low bradfield
osborn snr 29-07-2006, 23:49 Or may be the top red at grenoside
Skatiechik 30-07-2006, 20:32 Sorry Liam but I do feel late afternoon is going to be best for most people?
Any suggestions/comments?
I was thinking about 5ish?
well what im thinkin is i could bring quite a few vws with me if you make it about 1pm
Skatiechik 31-07-2006, 09:37 Well I haven't anything planned for the day, so anytime will be best for me. Lets wait and see what time Phylis and Goldenfleece think is best.
I don't mind. Can make anytime.
Where have we decided then?
Skatiechik 31-07-2006, 12:31 I thought it was The Moorlands in Owler Bar (I will have to get a map for me to find it) ?
It's dead easy. If you can get to Abbeydale Road in Millhouses/Totley/Nether Edge you just keep going until you run out of Sheffield and then about 2 mins later you reach the roundabout with the pub on the left. It has 2 entrances. You are better going onto the roundabout, coming off at the 1st exit and then the entrance is on the left about 50 yards on.
Skatiechik 31-07-2006, 14:17 I think I know where you mean, the road splits into two up a steep hill and you reach the most un-round roundabout ever. Go round the roundabout for bakewell.
Thats the one. It's probably the worst roundabout in the world. You can use any lane to get off at any junction.
Skatiechik 01-08-2006, 08:37 Righty to sum up, so the Sunday 13th August, 1pm at the Moorlands.
Is that ok with everyone?
Skatiechik 02-08-2006, 11:35 I correct my post above, the 13th is a Sunday. Doh!
good idea..i'd love to join in
yourface212 25-09-2006, 20:24 Good ideas........
