Aug cambs meet

I best turn up earlier if its my job to go round seeing all the newbies then lol.

If you see my earlier post, you'll notice i said i spent so much time chatting to newbies that i did'nt even get chance to have a play with my camera.

Its not no ones job! you just mingle in. Maybe you and hooligan are Shy!, i dont know

As matty says, peeps have more than 1 car, last month you'd have seen a 50/50 mix of old and new. Just the way each month goes i guess.

Old skool rules anyway dint ya know

Constructive feedback is always good, but when its all negatives it has an adverse effect.

ooooooooh its all getting a little bitchy here isn't it???
i for one was a "newbie" last night and yes not everyone came up and talked to me but then i didn't talk to everyone, so you have a tongue in your mouth and you supposedly have a common interest in all things VeeDub!!
as Caddyrage and myself and a few others mentioned maybe a location change (possibly a pub or the like) with a bit of seating and warmth would be possible, seeing as our summer has died a death and the dark nights will soon be upon us.
bitchin is boring peeps and wont help improve anything,

so who's up for a silent trip to players???? i'm not talking to anyone though!!!

P.P. found my arch on the M11 this morning and its not trashed..Good Times!!!!

Oh yeah, forgot about bramley

people saying about newbies i was new never ben to meets but i met loads of people jus made my self clear who i was not that hard is it and i didnt talk to everyone

trouble is not everyone gets to every meet (i certainly dont due to work etc) so when i do there are always a lot of new faces. When i do go i normally always speak to the people i know first but always seem to meet 1 or 2 people i have not met before every meet. It would difficult to get round and speak to everyone, especially when cars keep coming and going! Dont be put off if it was your first meet, everyone (who i've met!) is really friendly yet there are still other long standing members who i have not met yet.

i was there, was a good meet, i haddent been in ages and ppls were welcome and there were a lot of newer cars, mk4's and my skoda lol

SHY!!! me??? no way lol

if im bitching why have you lot gone to all the trouble of putting faces to rides?
i wasnt bitching just saying what i thought, i see that me saying some bits has made u lot do the Faces to rides which is a good idea.

exactly,people should mingle.old skool or new wave does it matter

i take it this is a monthly affair.
i'll be there next month.
don't now a grey caddy in norwich but i will next month i guess

i have to say the best bit of the meet, was watching the chav fall off his ped

I've been to about 7 meets now and only managed to meet about 4 or 5 people.. I'm hoping the faces to rides thread will help this though

It was a good meet and there are definitely a lot of different cars every month

Ive been a member on here for quite a while now but was the first cambs meet ive been able to go to cos of work... i thought it was good

ive been going for about a year and still hav'ent met everbody, but still meet new people every time

I'm gonna be neutrally biased here...

I thought it was a good meet.
My first in fact (well, with a dub anyhow).

I can see [insert name here]'s point of view as in people were talking amongst themselves, like in seperate groups. But I can understand that as you have mates and acquaintances, and generally the first thing you do is speak to your mates to catch up and whatnot. You wouldn't go straight up to strangers, running around and chatting to everyone and anyone.

I didnt really speak to anyone who I hadn't met before. Mark (MarkGTX), Liam (Mk3golfcab), Bramley, and the two guys with the beemers are all my mates so I was catching up with them last night. I know Matty through Mark so said a quick hello to him after he'd been mauled by everyone wanting to see his Mk2. Lovely btw mate! Didn't even see Jimmy all night :( And its kinda hard to hide a Benz!

But yeah, good turnout in my opinion, and sorry for not intorducing myself to anyone. Hopefully have a chance to drink and chat sh!t with you all at E38

PS *My dub was the black Mk4 GTI, in front of the wicked lookin Polo on the white banded's. And cheers to Caddyrage for bringin the FD stickers. My mate picked a couple up off you so now reppin the FD proud

people come & leave at different times, its hard 2 speak 2 every1 in the short time we r there. i still dont no every1 yet but people do tend to speak to the 1s they no 1st.

take e38, 2 days off camping together ul no peoples inside leg measurements.

Any1 got any pics from last night then?

sounds like i missed a good meet.....gutted!!.....VW Action next weekend..yay!!.............hope to see some new faces at next months meet
