Sorry RC. But i'll be at CG's Camping weekend with about 40 others that weekend. No one off BM though strangly. although a few peeps did say they'd go they all seem to have had a loss of memory when it came to actually paying for the camping. Their loss. So you should get a few for this meet.

I admit I was hoping to go on the camping weekend, but unfortunately couldnt get the time off work.  As soon as they found out I was on lates that weekend they said "NO!!!!!!" so I cant make either event, sorry folks and its a nice run down from up here.

hope you get more ppl than turned up at the vic today hun xx   I will be at the cowpat that weekend                                                                                                                                                                             

hey welcome bk pete!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   u can always stop off at the bridge on ur way bk from mfn lol xxxxxx                                                                                                                                                                             

Maybe I'm mistaken or I've lost my mind if I had one to start with......I'm sure that the camping weekend was arranged/planned months ago so why is this meeting being planned in the same area...very strange but then if ones face fits there are no bounds to what one can achieve...I once mistakenly tried to arrange a meet but was informed immediately that a meeting was already being planned..hmm obviously my face does not fit...also I am informed that there is no love lost between the two different organisers of these two event...Isn't this site supposed to be a place to bring all like minded people ( even some of us bikers ) together instead of it being full of inane bitchiness. I'm sorry but this needed to be said  altho I suspect it will be deleted. right off my soap box I get.                                                                                                                                                                             

First of all i'd just like to say sorry to RC for hijacking her thread. i'd just like to reply to herne. If this is kicking something off then please start a new thread.  The Problem CG had with the camping weekend Herne wasn't really this event and i believe the parties mentioned are on good terms now. The problem was that a few people that put themselves down for it. never had the good manners to tell CG they'd changed their minds.even when PM'd they have simply ignored her requests. You all know who you are. When booking things like a camping venue deposits have to be paid. When people say there going you have to take it on faith that you will be re-embursed fairly promptly. were not all made of money. At last count i believe there are about 40 who will be attending. But sadly only 3 including myself and CG from BM. I hope RC's event goes well and is well attended. Sadly from the state of the forums and of the meet at the vic i'm not sure how many can get off there bums to show up.                                                                                                                                                                             

Just a couple of thoughts here...

But perhaps the Vic meeting wasn't well attended due to the fact it was held on Fathers Day... most folk end up doing something with their families? You might put yourself down for something, before realising what the date actually is.

I'm sure there is room for both a camping weekend and a few hours meet somewhere... some people work weekends and can't easily get away for a camping trip, but might only work Saturday, so can come out to play on a Sunday :o)

It is very off not to have the courtesy to let an organiser know if you can't make something like a camping trip which involves paying deposits etc. It's one thing not to turn up at a pub meet (I admit guilt to that!) but it's poor form to drop out without contact where there's more organisation involved.

Just my tuppenceworth. No offence intended to anyone :o)

i agree with both Blues  & wannabe  sometimes you just forget you have put your name down for or in my case get let down with lifts ( which is sooooo  annoying )   Herne  maybe you ought to try to organise something again instead of complaining about it .... this isnt your first moan about meets & the locations after all if it wasn't for people like CG , RC , wiccan 1, scarey we would get the meets at all   ( sorry if i have forgot any1 )                                                                                                                                                                             

i have the same prob as you nina requarding lifts,but also childcare,the only meets i seem to be able to manage are matlock and squires,but i always try my best to be there...as with this one,,i will try my best to get there rc                                                                                                                                                                             

Nina...if it makes you happy to think that I'm moaning then it makes me happy..but here the problem lies as I wasn't moaning but then obviously my understanding of the English language is not as good as yours.                                                                                                                                                                              

Herne,   Who told you that you can't arrange a meet?  Anyone can arrange a meet, at any time, at any place.  If someone has told you otherwise then I'd like to know about it (PM me).   The UK is a large place, and there will always be events scheduled often on the same dates - especially with bank holiday weekends etc.   And for what it's worth - I think it's terrible not to tell the organiser of an event that you wont be going once so much effort has been put into it.                                                                                                                                                                             

herne  hun  will take more than that to make me happy       or it could be my interpretation of what & how you wrote .... hey   but what do i no  eh ?!

Cheers Bluesbiker for explaining it to me  I did say originally that maybe I had lost my mind Matt am sorry mate but I will not name names...if the folk concerned wish to tell you themselves then I have no control over that but as for myself I believe everyone has the right to say what they believe and as such I respect that.                                                                                                                                                                             

anyway back to the bridge inn meet.   RC if i get out my dosbag in time i will pop over and see you all but i won't promise, i might get very drunk at the cowpay lol     will see you soon   Pete xxx
