would there be an interest in a national meet, find field, put up a tent, get the BBQ going,

Hell Yeah.
I for one would be well up for that following the success of the GWRA weekend i'm sure there would be a lot of interest, from both people who attended and people who missed out because after the event i think alot of people realised that they missed out on one hell of a fun weekend.

Where do i sign up???????????

I agree with Dan, people realise they missed out on a great opportunity to meet and socialise in person with other forum members. Andy the idea of a national meet sounds great and would be even better if we could do some Laning or another GWRA or some other frontera related activity.

This looks as good a place as any http://balaoffroad.co.uk/

Booked for the weekend, camping pay and play with some of the countries best green laning on your doorstep if you didnt fancy the P&P, plenty to do around and about for families to.

Look up there ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

i was think more central to get more of the scottish clan down, and the Southerners up not for getting the we Irish folk over here

no you look up :butt:

count me in :dance:

Now now Fishy :wink:

Needs to involve off roading otherwise it would just be a WI meeting. As long as the individual groups are kept small laning won't be a problem. Booking a p+p for the weekend would be great.

I know a few local LR groups in Liverpool have booked Bala for the weekend and had good reviews.

Andy,
i understand the theory about making the meet central....ish if it were to be planned for a one night stop over, but there is another angle to look at this from.

If the meet was planned around a weekend, i.e friday afternoon / evening through to Sunday afternoon / evening then this would make the journey worthwhile, you only need look at the areas we came from for the GWRA to understand my point on this one.
Obviously i would favour Bala due to my location but i also believe that there is a good pay 'n' play site at Kirton in Scunthorpe which i guess most people would travel for.
With regards to laning i agree that the prospective numbers may make this prohibitive whereas a pay 'n' play site would allow attendees the opportunity to play if they want or they could sit out for a few hours to chat, eat, drink, attend the inivitable frontera workshop, etc, etc, before resuming the playing with all the other members.

Personally i have been hoping that another meet was going to be in the offering because the GWRA really was a personal highlight of the last 12 months so all i say is bring it on,(so much so i might even consider investing in a mankini for the next event.) :drink:

Dan.

Keep me in the loop. I can do Brekkie, up for p&p too.

Ok thats the cook sorted

ok lets get some ideas rolling, before we get numbers, lets get a place, then we can sort out a date (weekend)

lets try and make it bigger than the GWR,
on another note, for the ones who dont want to use there truck at a p&p site, i will gladly give you my keys and let you have fun

The reason I chose Bala was it has attractions all around and different options, but Im more than willing to go near enough anywhere though as the family will be with me I aint going nuts on a pay and play :lol:

after next may please to many other things to pay before then but i'm in
