this could be good for people even quite a distance away, whitby is a nice place to visit even for me 60 miles away so car meet would be an excuse to go ;D

Yay... Wasnt sure if it was a bit far out, But if ppl are up for it I will try n set something up. Winter is bleak here to say the least. Snow today! Summer here is great tho. Sun.. sea... Fish n chips! You cant beat it. That moors road is a great drive too. If it looks like there may be a few more I will for sure have a meet up sorted for early summer. There are a few places I have in mind. Bring on the summer!

You live in Whitby and you've never seen my car flying round?? I get over to whitby as often as I can (well bay/boggle-hole really ) so I know the back-roads and shortcuts. Il be up for any meet over that way, at anytime as long as I'm not working D

deffo up for this, and it looks like it's a spring/summer thing only thank god. went last new years day to watch them play the mighty gateshead. cold,wet,hungover and we couldn't find any of these famous chip shops any where, only one scabby one at the harbour. still looked like a lush place to live tho. (even with the terrible footy team ;D ;D )
