Who would be up...
For a huge meet?
This is posted in other regions aswell
Hello to all members of SN Would anyone be up for a trundle down/across/up (whatever way it would be for you) to Southend?
I was thinking maybe when the weather gets a bit warmer and hopefully a bit dryer We could arrange a big get together and all decend on to Southend sea front We could meet up for a spot of lunch first at The Strawberryfields and then convoy down to the front and park up.
If we could get enough up and running I would of thought it would make a good chance for magazines to get snapping and get SN and its members in the public eye Would be good if we could arrange an escort from the pub/restaurant down to park along the front all together
Was looking for the spring time, one Saturday maybe in April. What do you all think?
Glen
I would just to add that I have called a couple of car mags (Fast Car and Practical Performance Car) and depending on when and how many etc, they would be interested
If anyone else can give me some other mag names and either web address's or contact names and numbers I will be happy to contact them
Also, how would Saturday 26th April be for this to happen?

Got some takers, good to see. I am giving it until the end of Feb before I contact the mags again. I will then give them what info we have and take it from there.
I will ask (slim chance) but if any of you that live in or around the Southend area know any of the local police, could you try and find out if they can help us out with arrangeing a convoy from Strawberry fields down to the front and maybe closeing off the parking bays opposite the amusements (if the bays are still there) please

i vaguely remember someone trying to get an area coned off a while ago, but it was a non-starter. (i think its because there is little enough parking there already)
there are heaps of parking spaces up the other end of southend (towards thorpe bay) near the shorehouse public house, so i dont think there will be a problem doing this.
a police escort on a saturday will never happen in my opinion.

dates will always be a key factor nearing the sunny times, but i'm sure you'll see at least 50 ESC scoobs up for this.
keep us posted as to provisional dates
nice work

if the main casino area is busy and it's a big enough turn out, also as Dazza has said there is plenty of parking areas away from the main strip.
Hope to see you there
