That does sound good!  Scarborough has surfing and pubs and fish and chips - all we have to do is decide when!

Tim and I are off to Perpignan with the club in a couple of weeks, so we probably would have to say that until we're back from that trip we're busy.  However, we'd be interested after then.

Who else is up for this?

What about a more regular meet somewhere as well, to get a bit of a local branch going?  Or am I jumping the gun?

This is what we joined the Club for, and it would be fun to see some fo the other local members.  We see plenty of vans about, but don't get a chance to stop and chat.

There is actually a unofficial 'breeze' planned in Scarborough for Sun 21st September (on the VZI forum), I'm thinking of tootling up there for a wander round!

There is also a VW meet at the Fox and Grapes on york road just outside Leeds (see www.leedsvwcollective.co.uk) I haven't been yet as I always seem to be busy but they meet regularly, every other thursday at 8pm.

I am noter to do with any of these events, just what I have found in looking for like minded people for meets!

Well, 'Utch and I actually went to the Scarborough meet on Sunday.  Great to see so many vans and beetles.  There seemed to be plenty of interest.  We rode down the marina - that caught some attention!  Then on to Cayton Bay for a beach barbecue.  A very good afternoon out, especially as the weather held up.

I hate to cross-thread, but is there anyone else in the club who would like to meet up in Leeds or thereabouts for a more regular social event?  I know the evenings are only shortening as we go on, but there are at least fourteen members in the area.  Come on, guys!

I was at Scarborough too! Stayed over the Sat night then did the cruise to Cayton bay in the neptune blue '72 early bay.  What were you in?

There are a group of VW'ers that meet fortnightly at the Fox & Grapes on A64 out of Leeds, I met them and went in convoy to Scarborough.  That's the only time I have met them but they appear to have recruited a few members recently, can I post a link to their forum?

Hi again.... maybe it's time to start planning again.... once more destination maybe Scarborough... and not clashing with Show dates in the North. Possible weekends... April 17/18, 24/25, May 1/2, 7/8. Possible route... Start around North Manchester, up M62 to Leeds, A64 to York then Scarborough. Possible overnight.... I'm sure we could find a site capable of holding a few vans. Anyone interested, maybe email me...philipjtaylor@hotmail.co.uk Phil
