I see a lot of threads asking about meets etc.
I was wondering if you could all just state what part of the country you live in ?
Then perhaps I could take the little beast out onto the mkI scene...
-
Leeds West Yorkshire for me, but I've been down south to VWoodstock at Hertfordshire county ground, GTi Festival and BugJam (both at Santa Pod) and hopefully going to VWAction in September. If you are prepared to travel then meeting up is easy peasy :)
-
I'm from Ashford Middx area, will travel anywhere to shows - if the Mk1 will get me there.... ;D
-
Due to my job, I move around a lot, but am now based to the East of Inverness, however I have only recently moved from Lincoln, and also get back to see family and friends in Gloucester too.

-
I live in Forres by the duckpond next to the Mosset. Small world!! Do you ever get up these parts?
-
Bloody ell, whats the chances of that? Dont get up there much but hopefully will be up for christmas, dont think i'll be bringing the golf though, all those salty roads! ouch. My old man lives in Forres and my mum is near Nairn! I bet there arent many mk1's up that way!?
-
There will be another one up nr at xmas ;D

I bet there arent many mk1's up that way!?
You'd think not, but there are 4 very well looked after cab that I know of, within a mile of my house, and a couple of nice tintops around the area that I have yet to stop and talk to.
-
And me don't forget me!!
Mine is a cross between a cab and a tin top! :D

I know Rugby fairly well. Had a cousin there, and used to visit him. His parents were teachers at a school there too.
Not that big a town if I remember correctly.
-
Nah but it thinks it is! Every other building is a pub or a bar and so many people live here now. Its a wannabe city. I'm used to either living in the sticks or living in the city, this place doesn't know what it is. Building Hundreds of houses and new businesses now. My old man used to teach at a school here too!

Although I live in Bristol, my partner lives in Frome. We will be moving back to my house in September, hopefully when the Golf's on the road. Probably stay in Bristol for a year (She's due to drop a sprog in December) and will then hopefully move to Kensham (her family are Marksbury/Timsbury way).
I will started a new Job in the company on 6th September and will be up in Windy Thurso at leat 4 times a year and then odd trips in between.
Maybe catch up one day when not rushing through.
