winners 13 1 Vehicles Report post Posted December 22, 2009 Having airing my grumpiness on another thread, I will now try to put a positive spin on keeping the EMEG going. For the first meet 2010 how's everyone fixed for Sunday 17th or 30th of January . I propose we head into the Peak District starting at The Castlewood Pub just off J28 of the M1 (A38 junction) Post interest with preferred date. Mark Look what Q's brought us. Isn't it nice!

Simon350S 191 1 Vehicles Report post Posted December 23, 2009 A positive step forward, good to see mate Dont forget to post it up in the calendar when you finalise the date and link it to this thread, it may well encourage a little more interest! Come on EMEG crew, help make 2010 the best year yet! Chunky Lover Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
esprit350 1 Report post Posted December 23, 2009 just a little tip, if you organise a meet pick a date and then a venue, dont give people a choice of date or venue you will never please everybody, if you organise, then its your choice, do things you want to do if otherpeople want to come they will, when you get back tell everyone what great time you had and publish the next meet date. by the way this is not my personal advice it is the advise regional co ordinators of Mensa ( the high IQ society) are given best of luck The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.

sailorbob 199 Report post Posted December 23, 2009 Either date works for me, I take it Castlewood is DE55 2EH, Mansfield side of the M1 on the north side of the A38? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

winners 13 1 Vehicles Report post Posted January 18, 2010 OK so the numbers for January meet look low and the weather hasn't helped! Lets try for 21st February at 2.30 p.m. Meet at the Castlewood off J29 of the M1 (A38 Junction heading towards Mansfield) Then we'll head of into the Peak somewhere. Mark Look what Q's brought us.

Simon350S 191 1 Vehicles Report post Posted February 9, 2010 Hi Mark You really need to be adding these to the calendar mate, then link the calendar entry back to this discussion thread, it'll create more interest for sure! If you have any problems doing this then drop me a PM. Also, a more proactive approach, do what Newts did and send a group PM out to all EMEG members telling them to get their arses moving over to this thread. Once you've cracked this first meet of the year, have a chat between yourselves and organise a diary for the next 12 months.... Good luck dude!

gghc87 66 Report post Posted February 10, 2010 Just a thought but well worth sending it again nearer the time. At this time of year the weather can stop ppl committing till close to the date depending on weather/other commitments i.e. half term etc. not guaranteed but well worth a try.
