Daz Posted January 3, 2005 Report Share Posted January 3, 2005 I was just wondering if anyone would be up for a Buxton meet on the weekend of 23rd/24th April. Similar format to previous ones. Friday: Those who are free to drive up and go out for a drink or 2 in the evening. Saturday: Goto Alton Towers / Sightseeing / Shopping for the women. Saturday evening: Curry Sunday: Go out for a drive The format is flexible and if you can only make the Sunday that's OK too. In the past the majority of us stayed at the Old Hall Hotel but there are plenty of places close by to suit all tastes and budgets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RossG Posted January 3, 2005 Report Share Posted January 3, 2005 Sounds like a brilliant idea. But - I just posted this in the national meet thread: [ QUOTE ] There is a post else where in the meets section talking about Alton Towers type area - I know this would suit me vis a vis location. Need to check about that particular date tho, bit close to the old wedding. Mrs has just responded in a fairly negative manner when I mentioned this [/ QUOTE ] Mind you, she is a fan of Alton Towers, so I will get to work Roughly 2 weeks before the wedding. As far as I can see that is plently long enough for me to recover from any mishaps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RossG Posted January 4, 2005 Report Share Posted January 4, 2005 [ QUOTE ] HOW young does lagoo look there! [/ QUOTE ] You know, I thought the exact same thing, but given that I've only met him a couple of times, decided that it wasn't actually him, merely someone a lot younger who looked like him Lets hope he's not touchy about getting old Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daz Posted January 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2005 For those who don't know where Buxton is here's a map and some basic directions. How to get to Buxton Buxton is only an hours drive from the M1 and M6, Manchester, Sheffield, Nottingham and Derby. From the M1 head for Matlock and then through Bakewell, or take the A50 and A52 through Ashbourne. From the M6 take Junction 14 through Stone and Leek, Junction 17 through Congleton or Junction 19 through Knutsford and Macclesfield. From Manchester take the A6 to Buxton. From Sheffield come via the Hope Valley and then the A6. From Nottingham take the A610 and then the A6. From Derby take the A52 to Ashbourne and then the A515. From Macclesfield take the A537. From Congleton take the A54. For more info on Buxton Click here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s4dreamer Posted January 4, 2005 Report Share Posted January 4, 2005 I made the Sunday drive for the last one, and I have to say that it was a lot of fun (although I did knacker my alloys on those big kerbs outside the hotel!). If I can make this one I will, although with only having one car, it depends on what the Mrs wants to do that day too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
