Coolio - hopefully we can get some more numbers than this though - just need to work on a good venue to host the meet. Good to see you back Mr Sunburn!!!

I recon I'll only be "allowed" out for the morning or afternoon, as I'm away all week.. so the closer it is, the longer I'll have to chat...

Westerham was the last one wasn't it? I know the pub, has a good carpark...

Recommend Eton Rowing Club - Dorney Lake House? Fantastic scenery.

Im also happy to meet wherever most people are most likely to make the effort to get to. Jerome has made a great suggestion - but think we need to check that they will be happy for a load of cars to park up there and use it as a photo shoot - i know some meets have had problems with this. Maybe some of you could throw a few more suggestions into the pot for a possible location and then take a vote on best option???

Agree, don't mind where it is really.

Like Steve has said, need to make sure they will be okay with 10+ cars turning up taking photo's etc... especially as it'll be a Sunday. Most parks will be packed if it's a nice day... I know Leeds Castle is stunning, but will be rammed on a sunny Sunday.

And the best thing is that you can park right in front of the building

Naz, i understand, i also live east side of London, im in Chigwell, Essex and i always seem to travel a fair distance for meets AND this is MY meet!!! But i'd rather travel a little further and have a good attendance than sit on my doorstep and have no-one there!! Lets get a list of potential and viable venues and put it to the vote. Steve

Im looking into some options around me - but i dont want to just pick somewhere just because its close to me, i want the location to be right and be worthy of a meet and photo shoot etc. I will keep working on it!!

No permission needed as its a restaurant by day. Might be a bit crowded during the day.
