Might tip up next time then, itl have be next week now. Is sundays the main days yeah?

I just normally stay away from these things because there's loads of chavved up corsa's and pug's cutting around driving stupid. Give these meets a bad name.

Il probably nip down next time though.

The Burger King meet is being shut down soon due to idiots ruining it. CHAVs are buying food from maccyd's and burger king and just dumping the rubbish in the car park despite bins being provided as well as mongs doing dohnuts and handbrake turns etc. Both burger king and office world have complained to the landlord and the police and as a result the landlord is fitting gates to shut off most the car park except access to the drive thru.

When it started a few months back it was just a few lads meeting up causing no trouble. However as usual, people cant be trusted and now its getting stopped.

Doesn't surprise me Warren, we went down on Sunday to meet up with a mate and it was absolutely rammed, so rather than risk some knob driving into us or risk being associated with them if the police came down we parked up by the casino for a natter, endless amounts of astra vxr's flying past at mach 10, such a shame the idiots have to spoil it for everyone.

Thats why a ford only meet would be better, there wouldn't be as many cars and less aggro

If it's not just for RS's I might pop down in the 220, used to spend a lot of time round festival park as well way back around 1996-1999 almost every weekend, had a look round just a few months ago on a Sunday night and it was like a ghost town lol, but if its for any blue ovals I might be in

I'm up for this too obviously lol Darlaston is a good shout, nice big car park, 2 for 1 food and wacky warehouse for the kids? Or if it has to be in Stoke not the surrounding area I could ask the staffs vw lot which pub they go to, think it's somewhere near Meir if I remember correctly, or I know they used to go to the harvester on trentham lakes
