I was thinking of organising a forum meet up. Have done this with other forums and its always been great fun.

Just want to see how many of you may be interested and any suggestions on which track it should be as we are all over the country. Will speak to Vital about linking it up with his forum, as many post on both sites.

Let me know your thoughts and ideas.

Naturally Yorkshire is lovely at all times of year, the beer is cheap, as are the women, so I would suggest right here in Brownie's home county :-)

We would need to decide if it were to be Flat or NH first I think, then work forward from there? So hate the flat, some love it, smae with NH.

In principal i'd be up for it, but it very much depends upon costs/timings for me.

No meeting at Towcester until 7th October.

Can we not pick somewhere with decent racing, no disrespect to Towcester etc.

With all due respect to you guys, who I all love obviously, I ain't going to drive 200 miles, spent a fortune, with the highlight been a dodgy 1m handicap!

Would it be better for everybody to put down who's interested, then specify there locations, and then go from there?

I was thinking say Cheltenham in January for the Trails day, something of substance shall we say.

Newbury for Hennesey day?

If no one is too fused what stand they're in the "picnic area" is only around £6 entry and its right by the final fence (which you're allowed over to, to stand at the make shift stand right next to it)

I think it has to be a jumps meeting as we so obviously have far more interest in it than the flat.

As for venue, probably somewhere central or easily accessible by public transport. Cheltenham November meeting perhaps?

i think if your gonna go then matts choice of the hennessy meeting looks ideal.it ticks all the boxes for you except one,and that its a long way for the likes of brownie to come,but then thats always going to be a problem you have with the odd one....and they dont come much odder than brownie
