There used to be a number of us who used to meet at the Blackheath tea hut back in 92-2004 every Thursday night and most weekends then convoy down to southend or Dartford all on our CB Radios lol Was you one of the boys back then?, it would be nice to find out your name and what car you had and CB handle if you had one Whos knows maybe we could even sort out a reunion Ok i'll start then I'm Danny and i had a Gold mk5 cortina slammed with a set of rst wheels with a 4" pipe out the back and a cb aerial (Hot shot lewisham) was the cb handle lol

Long before then mate mid to late 80s , usually driving one of many mk1 escorts I owned then 1600e cortinas, then 3.0 and 2.8i Capris,,, I really miss those days, I came from Bexleyheath didn't like dartford people and they didn't like us !!! Funny thing is I'm now firmly settled in dartford and married to a dartford girl... I used to work at tyreservices in Broadway bexleyheath , all the crowd used to pop in and buy part worns ready for Saturday night action, made myself the petrol money for the weekend,, really miss blatting around dartford and up to blackheath, good days

Ok i was still at school then but seems like it's always been a popular meeting place. There used to be a nice mk1 escort van that was always there and one night he over cooked it and went side on to the lamp post! pos sod. Haha yeah i remember that between the Dartford and Bexleyheath boys, we had similar issues at southend and medway.
Haha yep cheap tyres for the weekend burnouts and donuts all over the heath but back then it would have been rude not to when we left. yeah me too, well you never know maybe we could sort out a reunion early next year, i'm in.
Was you not on the cb then?

I was only talking to a guy I work with about the tea hut on Friday. Him and his pals used to go there and have been talking about trying to rekindle some sort of meet. There all in there mid 40's and buying old fords to relive there youth (or it might be the midlife crisis??) I will let him know there has been some interest of a new meeting. I'm 47 so I'm relieving it thru my boys enthusiasm for fords, no doubt I will know your work pals

Most of us are 40 now but don't seem that long ago when we was standing there drinking tea and tucking into an animal burger lol

Can't be him then because he didn't have an 100e back then. Still i reckon there is a lot of people on here who used to go up there and hopefully be up for another, i will spread the word.
