Boxing Day Drive / Meet?
Hey all,
I'll be back home in Berks (Slough) and West London (Uxbridge) briefly over xmas (yes, glamorous I know!) and was wondering if anyone would be interested in a Boxing Day drive / meet?
I know that there are very few pre-organised meets on Boxing Day and the only 'local-ish' one I could find is in Romsey, Hants! But I know there's a lot of posing going on in Central London and was wondering if anyone knew of any meets in the London / M25 area? I've seen pages for a few previous non-official meets for petrol heads / enthusiasts but nothing spoken about this year.
Any ideas welcome!

Well Uxbridge is on my doorstep and I'm technically working Boxing Day (have to be available on the phone) so I'm in!

Awesome. Well if you get any calls I can take the drug therapy related ones!
Will keep my ear to the ground to see if there's anything pre-organised going on - clandestine / spotting / drives etc - otherwise there's always the Swan and Bottle (don't scrape the front diffuser on the uneven car park surface!)

Yes I don't see why not!
Any more recruits?
Does anyone have a good quality camera so we can take some shots of our Zeds?

Re: Boxing Day Drive / Meet?
Sounds swish! - I'm gonna either spend this Sunday wrapping pressies, tinkering with the M Coupe or getting her valeted - or perhaps a bit of all of them, plus working on an essay, so cleaning her might go out of the window. That said, even if I did she'll have to stay clean from Brighton to London so actually was thinking we could go for an 'au naturel' shoot - you know, take them out for a drive then show them in their prime covered in salt, mud and brake dust........what you think?Jamie W wrote:
