A8_Tony Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 Ok guys, It's that time of year again when I start to organise the annual A8/S8 meet. Now the venue is still currently going to be Billing, and I have the 10th May in mind for it, but have already been advised that some people may struggle in May, so am open to holding it in June should the need arise. New for this year, is the change in title. This year sees the inaugral A8 Owners Club Annual Meet, which means one thing for you guys......there's a club starting :D I'm currently gathering numbers for T-shirts, and number plates (with your Tag of choice on), and will also have available keyrings to those who want them. Pricing is to be confirmed, but I don't anticipate massive costs. So, we'd like to increase numbers from last year, and get a wide variety of machinery together, as well as owners and families. As usual a BBQ will be provided. Normally we ask for a donation to be made to cover the costs, as Botang normally forks out for this from his own back pocket :notworthy: So let's get a list of names, and if you have a preference for date, let me know. Also please indicate if you're interested in T-shirt, number plate (it'll save all the photoshopping when you get your pics home!), and keyring. We've got 80+ names on the Roll Call post, so let's see if we can get 50% of you to this meet, it would be impressive to say the least. P.S. I'm hoping to get Audi Driver Magazine, and Audi UK to turn up too still awaiting a response from them both. P.P.S. anyone is welcome '8 owner or not. The following have already agreed to come along :D A8_Tony - Ooop North Ian@A8Parts - Harrogate (Oooooop North) Ska - Laaandon Figure_11 - Thur Wess ****ree PsYcHe (tentative) - Central Jockland (pretty North ) Architex_mA8tey - Swindon "home of the roundabout" Botang - In the middle Oli18 - SW London Harpersimon - Lancs BillBlank - Kent "pronouced with a yew" Mkoneman- oxford DJStrange - Wist Landan/Chorley/Barnsley A8 Owner - sheep Capital wet wales Gninnam - Leeds(ish) - not as Oooooop North as Ian Nige - Kent Singh - Warwickshire JMW748 - Cheshire P.P.P.S.

Tobes49 Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 Stick my name down. If Audi driver don't want to send anyone, I can take the pictures for them and someone else could do the write up because my spelling is rubbish! Tobes49 - About 5 miles away!

Tiny12- Bromley, Kent Craigyb - Sale, Cheshire We also have been offered what might be a better venue, which is probably easier to access than Billing, and is cheaper too. It should allow us to do more than we would be able to at Billing, as there's an awful lot more space: LE17 6JJ is the place to be as seen [url="http://http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=LE17+6JJ&sll=58.054632,-15.512695&sspn=4.885222,19.775391&ie=UTF8&ll=52.442513,-1.048121&spn=0.010987,0.038624&t=h&z=15&iwloc=addr"]here on google maps.
