I chose Stoke as it was equidistant from Glasgow/Edinburgh area where most scottish members are based, and from Places like Plymouth, Devon and Kent in the extremes of the South West and South East where other members are based. Its an expensive time for all of us Brian. I have personally been made redundant from one job this year as some of you know, and am in the throws of trying to find another Job that I want to do rather than the one I was given that I no longer wish to, but I have still tried to attend as many meets as I can and even spent time and money reccy-ing meets for everyone else. The Annual Meet was in The Lake District - so a long way from members down south but hopefully much nearer for Scottish members, and the A8 Parts open day was up in Yorkshire and I've tried to be as fair as possible in arranging the xmas date as centrally to everyone as possible to get all to attend. I've even booked myself in at the hotel for 2 nights rather than one so as to be sociable to people coming from further that might want to stay either night! I understand that every one of us has different circumstances, and of course nobody is forcing anybody to come to any meeting, but if we want a "club" type feel and to socialise as a group then there has to be regular support from all involved for the time and effort that people like Mike and Myself and Darren etc try to put into organising these things. By all means have a Scottish meet, heck I've been to one myself earlier this year and would try to get to any meet I can including Scotland, but my disappointment would be that one would be scheduled to "clash" with or near to the date of the xmas meet that has already been researched and organised and therefore draw potential attendees away from coming to the xmas meet. We only have 2 meets a year where everyone tries to get there that can, and apart from the Annual Meet, the Xmas one was supposed to be the other. If we dont get enough people that want to come to the xmas meet then we clearly dont need to hold it next time but I for one thoroughly enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere of last years ![]()
