:?: Keep seeing a lot of references to past Meets that have gone on. I'm intrigued - how often do they happen? Where are they held? Who organises them? Can anyone go along? What happens at them?!

Sorry for all the questions - just sounds like they might be fun and like to know more! smile.gif

Have a look in the meets section for one that's close to you, and at a suitable time. Then post that you'd like to turn up - then turn up. cool2.gif

I will have to make it my New Years resolution to get to more meets in 2005.

Regular M62 one somewhere between Manchester and Leeds.. although still not that near to you..

Also - Alan of Pumabuild might be organising a rally day up your way..

If there's none near you then suggest one yourself - just find a good pub, put a date down and see who's interested.

Dude, Just find the nearest meet and go along. I'm sure you'll be made to feel welcome.

I went to my first meet in Feb this year and loved it. Good people with excellent taste in cars (even if there were a few odd-bods in a TT and a Fiesta stickpoke.gif ). I've been to a few since but not as many as I'd have liked.

Just remember, there has to be a happy medium between talking Puma and DRIVING puma. :wink: :wink:

Apologies if you're a Dudette as opposed to a Dude. I just spotted your handle and assumed it was something to do with horses.... Not that horses are just for girls before I start getting death threats. laugh.gif Anyway, Pumas eat horses..... and drink petrol. Have I strayed slightly from the point here. I think I may have so I'll be quiet now. :oops:

err - being quiet now would be good.. wink.gif

But yes - everyone get to a meet - if nothing else, it can be very interesting to put faces to names...

And if you want, I can give you a list of faces to avoid wink.gif

i too will be coming to more meets... seeing a convoy of pumas is one of the coolest sights in the world... being part of that convoy is amazing

the only downside i have found is i want to spend money and buy an FRP

Ahh yes - that is the natural progression... Fortunately there's a lot of good ones for silly prices at the moment..

spent all morning looking at photos and posts re mets (how sad am I?!) - I'm sold!! :rock:

Not sure about organising one - think I'll walk before I can run! I'll go to the next one closest to me though - but don't mind travelling a distance to get there - part of the fun is the driving I guess!! Presume husbands can come too?

Yes, Hash Monster, am a dudette!! Used to just have one passion in life (excluding husband of course!) and that was horses, but now have two: horses and pumas!! Similar thrills - controllable power at your fingertips, responsiveness, speed when you need it etc. Probably cost about the same to feed and insure, but only one produces good stuff for your garden!!! smile.gif :wink:
