how is leicester in te middle?
What about Newark, or the sports complex in Grantham? Thats where we have our east mids meets on PVG. think we need to start getting us lads in the Lincoln area a bit involved. Bearing in mind Skeggy is on the east coast and thats 40 miles from lincoln! Its a big region, can we start spreading the meets out a bit?

It may seem that way mate but tbh this region stretchs a long way south, really its too wide a spread region. The only way I feel meets will ever work is to split the region in half and get two lots of regular meets going and then try to get the two meets to meet up.
It doesnt just go east to Skeggy we also go further north to mablethorpe and louth.
Problem is Lincoln doesnt seem to get the people it just gets the lincoln people, perhaps you could try organising a meet at say Sleaford not far from Lincoln, nearer to Boston/Grantham. Easier to get to for me/you/Greg.
Dont know where in Sleaford could meet though, don't know it that well.
How does Sleaford compare with Lincoln with regards Mansfield peeps?

sleafords about the same distance to mansfield as Lincoln is. Think the idea of running two meetings is a great idea!
Id be very happy to organise the NE meet if everyone else was?
We could meet up at the 24hr petrol station in sleaford on the roundabout. very easy to get to and its the roundabout that leads off to Boston, Grantham and Lincoln.

Well theres the actual 24hr car park with room for about 25 cars. Then theres the little chef car park, which can fir about another 70 in!
If not theres always eastgate car park which has got the hub in it! hold hundreds!
