Midlands Meet 16th September. :)

Coxy`s Unit
Calibre Industrial Park
Laches Close
Four Ashes
Wolverhampton
WV10 7DZ


Its about 3 minutes from Junction 12 M6, just off the A449 near Wolverhampton. Kick off from about 10:00 until around 16:00.

This will be a great chance to meet up with other Detailing World members and to possibly try out machine polishing, and to raise a bit of cash for charity. :thumb: You will also get to see Coxy`x very nice collection of cars and a special Moggy :cool:

:buffer: Dave KG (DW legend) is booked in to give PC and Rotary polishing demos (and possibly some other pro`s), so come along if you want to see the man in action and get some tips or even have a go with his guidance. If anyone else would like to offer their skills or services (machine polishing, wet sanding etc etc) then drop me a PM. We are also looking for a donor car, so PM me if you can supply one or dont mind yours being used.

Autobrite Direct will be onsite to demo some products and you will be able to purchase products from them (if you want anything specific, email them to bring it along)
Eddie from Racefilm will be bringing some Paint Protection Film for a demo install.

If any of the other traders want to come along or offer some more raffle prizes please PM me.

We will be holding a raffle and possibly a "Show n Shine" competition (weather dependant) to raise money for charity. If anyone wants to donate any prizes or has any ideas for this, please PM me or bring them on the day, anything will do whatever you can give.
So dont forget to bring some money to buy your raffle tickets as we want to raise as much as possible and so far we have had some great offers of prizes including:

Dodo Factory - The full range of Dodo Juice waxes ! Now arrived :thumb: Thanks Dom.
Serious Performance - 500ml Serious Performance Show Detailer and a SP Pro Microfibre Towel ! Now arrived :thumb: Thanks Alex.
Auto Perfection - A £35 voucher to be spent online @ www.autoperfectionworld.co.uk/ (http://www.autoperfectionhttp://autoperfectionworld.co.uk/catalog/.co.uk) - Thanks to Jim :thumb:
AutoBrite - yet to be announced.
Race Glaze - Two bottles of Crem Perfection Carnuba Wax Polish and 30 free samples, a big thanks to Mark from Race Glaze :thumb:

So a big thank you goes out to those who have already offered their help / time and to the traders who have promised the prizes.
Please put your name on the new list if you can make it. See you on the 16th.

Hi all :wave:
My first post
Been reading on here for a bit now, and i am really interested in this PC, may buy one, and this seems like the meet to be at before i do.

So is this a free event? (i guess so, as there's no prices, and talks of charity donations)

Also can i bring a friend or two last minute?

P.S just been talking to guy at work and he may be interested as well, will chat with him again tomorrow. His got a K reg Red Nova, you still need another donor car? lol

[Wozza]

Hi Mit, welcome to DW :wave:

You are more than welcome to bring a friend just put their name on the list. There is no cost involved but it would be nice if everyone who attends were to buy a few raffle tickets so we can raise a bit for charity, especially as the prizes are worth over £150.

[Gaz W]

This is turning out to be an awesome event. Why do I always miss the best midlands meets ! :(

[EvilDes]

Hi all,

Just had a read through this, and have to say it looks a very impressive event. Plenty of things going on to keep us newbies entertained I'm sure! So I hope it's ok to put my name down in a hope that I'm free that weekend! :)

No problem, am sure i will have some spare change on me.

[Coxy914]

I've put a thread up on a couple of other forums which I frequent to get some more cars down on the day and to enlighten people into the wonderful world of detailing!!

My mate is popping down in a 1967 Oldsmobile Tornado!!

[AL@Streetsleepers]

Typical, big meet on a site that I join, and i'm on holiday!

No limit on spaces (my unit is 2500 sq foot), and we'll be the only people there on the Sunday so pretty much unlimited parking!

A lot of people may not have access to getting this kind of stuff as it's all trade stuff but they do plenty of good products such as Tardis, G101 (APC), TFR, Car freshners, brushes, spray guns, Auto foams, applicators, paints, polishes, glazes, clays, lotions & potions etc etc!
And you'll be able to buy it at trade price and in bulk such as 5 litre containers or even 25 litres!

Jetseal. 303 fabric guard for any soft tops( you need this in your life). Got some carlack wheel cleaner and special cleaner too. plus lots more.

No real plans, Dave KG (and possibly one or two others) will be giving machince polishing demos / lessons. Mark from AutoBrite will probably be showing off their foam lances, another trader may also pop down and we may have a PPF (paint protection Film) demo by Racefilm. There will be plenty of cars to look at and people to talk to etc.

[EvilDes]

Spot on. I should be there anyways! It's only a few junctions up from me - about 10 minutes away :)

Cant wait to see how things are done properly! :)

But if you're there after 11am, I can guarantee all the bacon baps will have gone!!!

[EvilDes]

Damn! I'll be there at 730 then! :lol: ;)

Naah, that's fine anyways, was just wondering how the day will go really. My missus is into cars aswell (she begged me to get the Pulsar, and pays for most of it's petrol and mods! :thumb: ) so just thought I'd see if there was some kind of plans for things going on! :thumb:

[ianFRST]

how about, turn up, have a chat, look at cars, then crack out the tools and polish :D

No pub car park meet this one! And my own bacon baps are winners!!!

Especially with melted mozarella and sweet onion tomato ketchup!!

Endless supply of tea and coffee, and I'll make sure there's plenty of soft drinks available for everyone.

There will be a small charge for these just to cover the costs cos I ain't that well off!!

[Gaz W]

Bacon Sarnies!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm gonna work out a plan that gets me to this meet LOL

Forecast looks good for the weekend!

[Voyager]

as promised i will be there in the RS4 but accompanied by swirl marks as my UDM aint arrived yet. nothing worse than looking at my car and products and itching to make a start, i could hit it with the big makita but i dont have the range of pads for the bigger polisher, so will resist the temptation,
kinda feels like turning up to a dentist's convention with rotten teeth.
if however anyone feels like doing a demo run on the RS4 i would be ok with that will bring along my products an BOS wax just in case, looking forward to meeting you all, oh an reserve me one of those nouvelle bacon buttie's
:wave:

[Epoch]

I'll bring my 2 Oz decanted pot of Vintage if there's a spare panel to test it on?

I won't be there until about 15:30 though!!

I will have to have a word with 'er indoors' and see if I can make this, it sounds like it is going to be a good event!:buffer:

This would be really good if there's a panel, and say line it up side by side with another wax? (Yes, I know, you need to see the whole car for the full effect, but might be worth it just for fun?) I'd like to compare a panel thats HDd and Vintaged to a panel thats just been polished and nothing else too... :)

No probs Dave other than my expected late arrival.

We did this on Deej's Black Corsa and apparently you are the only person who correctly identified the Vintage!!!!!!

[ianFRST]

ah vintage...... can i hold it and smell it for a while please epoch, as im sure ill never see another pot again :D lol

[Epoch]

ah vintage...... can i hold it and smell it for a while please epoch, as im sure ill never see another pot again :D lol


Like Royale, it actually only slightly smells (rather than like all the rest of the waxes).
I won't bring the pot just my small decanted version (it could be hair gel!!!)

[paddy328]

Doesnt it smell like almonds, if i remember correctly?. I had some and put 3 coats on my e36 328 sport, ready for the national show at gaydon. Until joining here, i didnt know you had to let it cure, so all three went on at once. Looked good though.

[Coxy914]

Just sorting out the refreshments for the weekend!

Sorry no alcohol though!!

There will be Tea/Coffee/Espresso, soft drinks (Coke/Fanta), crisps and Bacon Butties on sale on the day so you won't go that hungry!
All prices will be decent and and stoopid show type prices so lose change will see you fed and watered!!

[Coxy914]

BTW.
If anyone gets lost on the day or needs directions.

Please call the office number as someone will be on hand to answer calls from about 9am!

I am happy for my car to be used as a demo car too.

There are holograms on some panels which I think would be tricky to PC (such as the door frames) :buffer:

The car may be of particular use in a wet sanding demo. I have stone chips to remove, but also a crappy previous owner respray on the bonnet which has orange-peeled.

It'd be good to discuss some aspects of machine polishing which I still haven't figured out - the complex shapes of front bumpers and the like.

Since reading DW it now takes me five hours to wash my car, which I think is absurd. Clearly the pros don't take five hours just on the wash phase otherwise they'd take two days on a full exterior detail!

Looking forward to it :thumb:

[Coxy914]

Borrowed some tables and chairs from the nice people in the unit next door today so you can sit down and relax with yer bacon sarnie and drinks!!

[Darrell]

excellent, sarnies are always good.

What a thing to say for my first DW post haha.

Hello west mids people!!! I'm in Wolverhampton

[MR Ray]

Looking forward to meeting you all.

Hope you're all gonna wear name tags ;)

[MR Ray]

Would anybody object to me bring a camcorder to film a few demos?

[Wozza]

Fine by me, but its up to Coxy really as its his Unit, the only suggestion I would make is that it may be a good idea to ensure the footage does not contain any number plates, some people dont like them to be shown. Same goes for photos as well.

[MR Ray]

agree with the number plate. I used to be the same back when I had a scooby

agree with the number plate thing im lookin foreward to my first meet:thumb:

My foam lance will be in the box with all the other detailing gubbins, including some Snow Foam. Other folk are welcome to use it.

I won't be bringing the pressure washer though.

[trionic]

Bubbletastic :D So, you've got the foam, who's bringing the girlies? :D

would it be okay if a newbie pops along?
Attending one of the meets is perhaps the best introduction to detailing for a newbie. There's only so much you can read on the forums before you just need to see the knowledge in action.

An hour's demo with a PC is worth hours of reading on the forums.

[banditbarron]

Guys you might wanna put something on the front page or something regarding traffic. The penny has just dropped as i was heading home to cannock down the A5 that its the 'midland game fair' at weston park this weekend too. Therefore the A5, M54 and M6 are gonna be quite busy and at times chocka around where the unit is. So will be worth heading out early i reckon to beet the traffic. Just a thought thats all. Also have you considered putting a sign on the A5 with a big DW on it showing the turning? Cause Being from round there I'm guessing alot will fly past it lol.

Are grubby cars allowed at these things? :)

Still planning on coming as I'd like to meet people and see some of the products & demos but the car is filthy and there's no way I can wash it today as I've done my back in and can't afford to aggravate it.

If anyone feels like cleaning my car I'm willing to pay £1.50 ! :)

[Bigpikle]

Thanks Coxy for your efforts and sorry you ended up the loser with your stuff getting pinched :( You deserve better for all the effort you went to.

Thanks also to Dave again for the demos and advice, and telling me the paint on the MG is about 3' thick (!) and good to put some more faces to names.

and bigsyd can your wheels get any cleaner

[MiT]

Thanks for the event guys. Thanks to Coxy, and the rest of the team, special thanks for Dave who showed me how to use a PC and gave me a go. Am not a PC virgin any more. Coxy dont know what got nicked, but hope it wasn't worth much. I learnt a fair bit.

[autobrite-direct]

Thanks coxy for a great day at your unit! We really appreciate it!All the trouble you went too and some thieving f***** (you know who your are t***!!) goes and does that!!:mad: Thanks again mate see you soon!!

Mark & Jill @ Autobrite:thumb:

P.S Hope the foam lance helped you out??

[Coxy914]

Glad you all enjoyed it.

Nice to put usernames to faces, and names to usernames!!

Bit of a pisser that someone decided to nick my Paint thickness gauge. Cost around £200. I believe in Karma so whoever has done it, what goes around comes around fella.

Apart from that I had a great day!:D

[winrya]

Had a great time, it was cool putting faces to all your usernames. We will all have to do it again, what a great turnout.

Many thanks to all the organisers, great venue

Well chuffed with my dodo orange prize, god it smells good:thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

I popped over today for a look around, came in the 300c (what a car it is :D) and the lad in the ovlov drift car. Didnt stop to long as it was only a flying visit.

Big thanks to Coxy for the location

[ash_xt]

totally forgot this was today, even with all the reminders lol... hope you guys had a great day, sounds like you did, apart from the one hickup by the sounds of things.. come on the person give it back!!

[jaffa]

had a great day learnt a lot and realised my shoping list has just grown:eek:
pity about the missing things but what goes around comes around!!:mad:

thanks to every one involved in organising the day
:) :) :thumb:

[Avanti]

Passed by today, was a good meeting, my 1st one.
Was nice to put a face to some of the names and thanks to all the organisers there, also a thanks to Dave KG who was demonstrating the rotary and other tools in action :thumb:

[hotwaxxx]

Just popped around for 45 minutes or so as I had another function to go to. I was the chap who came with his Mrs watching DaveKG working on the nearside wing of the PimpMyRide car. Kept myself to myself but was good recognising people from the reflections in the cars in the Studio and Showroom.:p Edit: I was the chap in the NHB Civic Type-R.

Wish I could have stayed longer and would love to have done a PC demonstration as the turnout was fantastic.

And for that thieving scumbag who took Coxy's PTG - he should get what is coming to him. Coxy goes to all this trouble to put on a event like this and then some knobjocky comes along and takes what is not his. :devil: :devil: :devil:

[dodger]

[Coxy914]

Not from where it was, no.

[city-rhodes]

Yay my first meet :) some nice cars there today. speshly liked the sierra 4x4, very clean :)
And i learned some things about polishing, thanks :)

sad to see things went walkies though!

[blr123]

Hi lads,

Sounds lik a great day, sorry I couldn't be there but was on night shift :(

Coxy if you need a loan of a PTG gauge for a bit just say, both Dave and myself have one so you're more than welcome to borrow mine if you like.....just a thought :thumb:

Nice to see that you didn't give dave any peace :p

[RICH2508]

Have to agree with everyones coments, an excellent day, thanks especially to DaveKG for doing a 700 mile round trip, no amount of reading how to use a PC can replace watching an expert in action. BTW, thanks also to DaveKG for showing me that my Lexus has had more paint on the front than the Forth Road Bridge!. Cannot beleive that someone would stoop so low as to take Coxy's PTG....please don't let it put you off organising another excellent event.

[MR Ray]

Had a great time today.

Thanks to Coxy, Wozza and Dave :thumb:

I still think Dave is mad for driving down :D Poor bloke didnt even stop for lunch

[Wozza]

Its was a good day, but as well as the PTG going, we also had a tub of Dodo Juice Purple Haze stolen from the raffle prize, it was only on display for about 20 mins before it went :devil:

[wilbz11]

had a great day out today and spent £45 on products lol and won 2 prizes in the raffle:D . I just want to thank coxy and wozza and dave KG for all there efforts and hard work that went into this meet as it was fantastic, apart from the thieving little scrotum that took coxy's PTG and a few other item's, yeah you know who you, you should be ashamed of yourself and i hope you die a long horrible death.

[MR Ray]

Lets just hope the thieving c*nt didnt ruin any future detailing meets for all of us :devil:

[Bullitt]

What a great meet! Thanks to all involved for their time and effort, especially Coxy for use of the unit, the bacon baps were superb. Dave KG for the demo and the terrific advice. Dave your a star! Wossa, for organising the charity raffle, and the traders for their donations and attendance. :thumb:

When so many people take time out to organise such an event, so that they can share their knowledge for free and also do a bit for charity, it is shame the event is marred by a total wa*k*r who does not deserve to be a member of this forum. If the person responsible has any conscience, all it takes is a jiffy bag and a stamp. :mad:
If not, be forever cursed. :devil:

yeah good event, learnt some stuff, now i want a UDM/PC, annoyed at the PTG, i hope the thief gets their car keyed, thanks to coxy/wozza/dave and every1 who was involved in the running, alot of emphasis on the rotary very tempting as it looks straightforward (expects bashing now)

[Gaz W]

Awful that a tub of dodo and Coxy's PTG. They had the cheek to turn up, steal over £200's worth of goods. After so many people put time, money and care into organising such an event.

I hope whoever did it has the balls to admit it, even in private, or even not admit it and send it back the rightful owner. Shame on them.

[riz]

not every1 was from DW,but there was a massive dog there that may have had something to do with it

[hotwaxxx]

That wasn't a dog - that was a bloomin horse.:doublesho

Gaz - how did your mum's birthday go?:p

[riz]

i generally dislike dogs but asfar as dogs go that looked cool, but not as cool as the classic BMW at back of the unit

[jaffa]

Yay my first meet :) some nice cars there today. speshly liked the sierra 4x4, very clean :)

Raffle, i knew i missed something...doh..any way guys i forgot to donate some money. If there's a paypal link or something, am willing to donate a few quid.

cheers once again.

After the shatty events that took place at the meet today ie coxy's PTG going walkies, I really do feel for him. This is not his main business as many know, many don't so its not as if it were his company PTG it was his own personal one.

I think we should show some real appreciation for him opeining up for today and giving many of us a great day out. I really do hope it can become a regular thing and that this doesn't ever happen again.

My idea is to either all put together and get him a new PTG or If Coxy would prefer then maybe set something up to make some donations to his very worthy charity that the event was raising money for.

Some may think 'nah' forget it and i imagine many like me will hapilly donate an amount to either new PTG or the charity.

Come on guys, what do you reckon?

Thanks again Coxy for a superb day.:buffer:

I totally agree! Coxy is a top man!! What he did today was great! He welcomed so many people in to his premises and someone **** on him by stealing from him!! I think donations would be a good idea!

[MiT]

I agree with the above.

[riz]

ill donate and ill sell the stuff i won on the raffle for donations

puppy bleedin hell, good thing u got a camper van

[james b]

looks like a wicked day for all .... and alot of efort must have gone in to sorting it all............................ i hope who ever robbed the PTG gets the come-upance

[james b]

il donate too even tho i did not go, some one set up a pay pal for coxys pdg and then they can collect up and get a better one for him,

and a reward for who ever finds who stole it and kicks it up there ass;)

[Chris_4536]

Sounds like it'll be a good meet, shame I can't get as I'm at the Donington Kit Car Show on the 16th :o
Have a great day and don't forget loads of pictures :thumb:

Darren

PS Which charity you raising money for?

Daz, where you on the A38 this morning around 9:45?? I'm sure you blasted past in the Westy going the other way! (I was going from Sutton to Derby)

On point of the thread, gutted I missed this :(

..but I was speaking to a rather large Japanese car manufacturer about them (potentially...) paying me lots of money to build some nice shiny new cars for them :wave: :)

Reagrds, Chris


P.S Who won the Raffles in my absence? :D :D :p :thumb:

[trionic]

This was a great Detailing World meet - to those who didn't come: you missed a cracking day in the company of good people so make sure you go to the next meet! :D

Many thanks to Coxy for his hospitality and to Wozza for organising the day.

The medal for servic beyond the call of duty goes to Dave KG who travelled silly miles to demo detailing expertise and give freely of his advice. Respect!

To the scum who nicked the PTG and tub of wax: you know Coxy's address (it's on the first page of this thread). Put the PTG and tub of wax in a Jiffy bag and post it to him and we'll restore your honour. Fail and we'll send the boys around :devil:

Pics to follow :D

[Gaz W]

Agree.

For the tub of wax that got stolen, I will speak to Dom @ Dodo about another raffle, £1 per entry, win all of the dodo juices and all the money goes into the Coxy PTG fund.

great meet today, well worth the drive down from glasgow, thanks to Dave for travelling all those miles to show us some great demos(i thought 4 1/2 hrs was bad so i can imagine how u must feel drivin an extra 2-3hrs on top back to dundee)

was totally shocked when i heard that Coxy's PTG had been stolen,someone just had to spoiled a good day!but big thanks to coxy organising this meet n lets hope this hasnt put him off organising future meets.lets get the donation going guys!

sorry if i havent introduced myself at the meet, im the chinese dude that came in the Laguna with 2 other mates.

[oneowner2004]

I only decided to go to Coxy's in the early hours of Sunday morning, but am really glad I made the journey - I thought I had a long journey of 115 miles from just North of London, but this was totally overshadowed by those DW fanatics who literally came from the other end of the country.

I met a great bunch of people today, and thanks to Dave's great demo's and explanations feel confident now to resurrect the hidden Rotary that I bought 12 months ago (used once) from the depths of the garage and get practicing -on a scrap panel first!

So a big thanks to Dave, Wozzer, and all the guys who attended plus of course, Coxy + his other half for allowing us to intrude into his precious spare time and making it a great day..........

Thanks, it was most appreciated.

[EvilDes]

Well, what can I say! It was a top day out, it really was! :thumb:

Everybody was friendly and chatty, the cars looked ace, and the demo's were awesome! Glad the weather held out, although was a bit windy at times, but at least it wasn't pouring down!

Really am gutted to hear about the theft of items. Can't believe that! Whoever it is, I really do hope you get what's coming to you. It's just out of order and not within the spirit of things when the day was going so well!

Well done to those who won the raffle aswell (yes, even the jammy gits who won more than one prize! :p )!

I hope there's enough confidence to have another meet in the future, and that the sad, pathetic actions of one LOSER doesn't make all of us suffer. :(

[legend_of_chaos]

Would of liked to have come to meet some of you guys but i was busy sourcing a new van, looks like you all had a top day.

I would like to say to the person who stole the items from coxy, i don't know coxy but he seems to contribute to this site alot and seems like a top bloke, this theif should feel very ashamed and im shocked that someone could do this, you have stolen a very expensive tool that gets used everyday i bet, you will obviously not come forward and admit it but if you read this post just think if someone stole something of great value of yours that you needed for your job.

All i can say is this......Your a thieving scumbag and if you don't feel bad now just wait till you get found out, sorry guys for ranting on but i have been in the same situation and it put me back a few days in work to pay to replace the item that was stolen.

[brett.b10]

Excellent turn out guys, coxy , davekg , you were top class, sorry some prat nicked your ptg , we should have a wip round to replace it.

[rubbishboy]

I didn't attend myself, but what a complete sucky thing to do. That kind of behaviour could seriously put people off organising future meets.

If there's going to be a raffle to raise some funds for a replacement PTG, I'll happily donate a prize.

And I have to say the paintwork on that moggy is superb. :thumb: Love the beading shot looks like molten metal.

[Coxy914]

Just checked back in.

Cheers guys for what you are doing, it has totally restored my faith in this place and human nature. For 10 minutes yesterday I was ready to pull the plug and tell everyone to go, but seeing how into it Dave KG is and how much effort he and others made to get down here and how valuable his demo's were, I felt it wouldn't be right to let one opportunist Ar5eh01e ruin it for everyone.
Not just the PTG that got lifted but also a jar of Purple Haze which was kindly donated by the Dodo Juice co. in order to raise money for the raffle which in turn helps out a charity to help those who are less fortunate than ourselves.
Whoever did it, I just hope it isn't you that will be asking for help from our charity when your health takes a turn for the worse.

Overall, I felt it was a success and I would be more than happy to hold one again sometime in Spring next year. I'll lock the valuables up this time!!!

Like I said to a few yesterday, feel free to use what products I have in my unit as it's nice to be able to try and test without spending a fortune (which can easily be done in this game). It wasn't a suggestion for a long term loan btw!! I did also have a bottle of Renovo plastic window stuff go walkies as well. If you've used it and want to send it back, the address is at the beginning of this thread!!

Anyway, thanks again to the 99% oe people who turned up and made it a success. With what you guys are doing for me, I feel only right to put on another one! This time, I'll get someone else to do the bacon & mozarella baps!! Never seen food get eaten so quick! Hope no one has deli belly this morning!!

[banditbarron]

OK people, I'll do the next one at my place. As most know, I was going to do a small meet a couple of weeks back, but it was getting messy, and I pulled it, but having seen the enthusiasm of all the guys that turned out at Coxy's, I am happy to use my place again.

Someone suggest a good date, and I will get the ball rolling.

Oh and by the way, if Larry Lightfingers is looking in here, dont bother turning up, because you WILL get a smack if anyone finds out who you are.

Over to you fella's.

Sounds like posting the address in an open forum is not the way to go.
Maybe give it out to interested members who add their names to a list,
then send them the address via PM.
Did anyone at the Midlands Meet check exactly who was who?
I mean, anyone could have just seen the post and popped down without
even registering on this forum.

[racefilm]

I think that we can all possibly get a bit paranoid about this.

Maybe the best way is to think that this was an isolated incident, and just hope that the amount of people that have expressed their disgust at what happened will deter anyone else from acting the prat.

I think that closing the event and making it a private members thing is the wrong way to go. However, maybe just having a book where people sign in as they come in, maybe using their forum name, gives a little bit of security, and maybe I could do a little name badge or something. That would also help people who dont know each other to put a name to the face. I'm open to suggestions on this, and maybe Wozza can put on the black suit and dickie bow to do the door. He's a big bugger, and can growl at people and say, sorry, not today mate.

Don't let the tiny minority of ******s wreck the thing for everyone else.

Sounds like posting the address in an open forum is not the way to go.
Maybe give it out to interested members who add their names to a list,
then send them the address via PM.


This process worked well for a small meet in Liverpool recently (10 people)however the day had a set agenda and learning schedule. I think it would be much more difficult for a large scale event like the one at Coxy's.

Possibly the Meets section should only be viewable to people who have logged in (i'm not sure if thats the case anyway).

At least that way only registered members can see the thread.

Sounds like a good meet - largely. If anyone knows exactly who the offender was/is then let one of us know as such behaviour will result in an immediate and permanent ban from this forum.

I would suggest that this be a lesson for future meets - sadly there are gits out there who will use someone's genorosity in opening their premises to pinch stuff so might be worth putting valuable stuff away - shame indeed.

Very sad indeed and spoils what looks and sounds like a really good DW meet

The PTG was a Fendor Splendor FS488. Got it from the States about 6 months ago.
You see a lot on eBay US, but seldom you'll see one on eBay UK.

Coxy, I'd delete that last sentence in case it gives someone a reason for a change of plan.

Im gutted i didnt get there in time to try the bacon baps, maybe next time.
I was only saying to bigsyd that how its such a trusting friendly forum, that you can leave things lying around and it wont get stolen. 5 mins later and we find out that the dodo and ptg gauge had been lifted. Dave was lucky to not get his sungun nicked,as lots of people were picking it up and having a look at it(including myself) and nobody looked twice. I can see how it would have been easy to take the ptg.

Taking the purple haze off the raffle table took some balls though. I hope they get kicked in said balls very soon. The more prizes in the raffle means more poeple will buy the tickets, which means more money for the charity. This is why i decided to donate some of my zaino stock to replace whats gone missing.

I tried out my bottle of black wow on bretts b10 alpina too. It will be good to see how long it lasts. You can even see me putting in on in the background of one of the pics. (red t-shirt, glasses).

Big respect to the scottish boys for traveling so far, esp dave. It really shows dedication. Cheers to dave for giving me some rotary tips and avanti for letting me have a go on his golf. Also for wozza(top bloke) for letting me try the z tyre.

Bigsyd, let me know how you get on with the z-2 pro.

Sorry I missed this meet looks like it was a good one, hopefully make the next one.
Gutted to hear of the light fingered visitor though, that has to be the worst luck and I can honestly say that nothing went missing from the Nottingham meet apart from all the tea and coffee :D , so hopefully it won't put anybody else off organising a meet.

If the person responsible reads this please return the missing items in a jiffy bag to the correct owner, if not I hope the PTG fails gives you a duff reading and you burn through your clear coat :mad:

Racefilm. I'll give Wozza a break and organise the next one at your place, i'll make up for my previous p*ss ups with meets. I'll contact you in a few days.

Really sad to hear of things being stolen from the meet, and certainly put a dampner on what was otherwise i superb day of detailing. :( Its never something I've experienced before at a meet, which is why I happily had a Sun Gun and my PTG out in the open, and folk were borrowing my PTG all day long and I didn't think twice about it... Now unfortunately I will have to think about lending my PTG out at meets, which is a really great shame as ultimately it spoils it for everyone else who is perfectly honest.

Away from this sore point of the meet, I have to say that it was a truly superb day and well worth the trip down. Many thanks to Coxy for allowing us to use the unit, and to Wozza for organising an excellent day. I had a great time. Got a few pics too, I'll post them later on. :)

[racefilm]

Gaz, thanks for the offer.
I will look at this over the next few days, and it may be that I team you up with Wozza, who will be in charge if he is up for it. I'm making big assumptions here!!
You are more than welcome to help get things rolling, but I won't be having the same jumping all over the place as last time. It just gets too confusing, and then I get bored with it.

So, leave it with me, and I will let you know.

Cheers

Eddie

Excellent, seems like the wheels are in motion for another meet coming along... If I'm free, I'll be down for it. :D

stick around longer next time and check out Birmingham. I'll be happy to show you all the lap dancing clubs :D

[hotwaxxx]

It was a fantastic day and I wish I could have stayed longer. Dave KG - you were a legend and I spent most of my 45 minutes checking you out with the rotary (not in a pervy way:lol: ). You made it look simple and I have certainly picked up some great pointers from watching you work.

If there is another meet can people be made to wear name badges so I can spot who is who instead of approaching random people with the line... "Who the hell are you".:lol:

In light of the thieving crap that went on it may also be an idea to have a security guy on hand - don't know how this would work exactly but perhaps an undercover guy looking over tools etc. I'd be happy to run a Porter Cable Workshop if there is interest in it as well.

Cheers - Hotwaxxx:thumb:

Can i come? :D :p

Sorry Gaz, I think lip dancing would be more appropriate at your age;)

edit: double post!

Dave, I still can't believe you came all the way down from Dundee, worked for nearly 8 hours (almist letting your coffee go cold twice!!) and then drove back all the way to Dundee again. You were 2nd to arrive in the morning and almost the last to leave. That is 146% total dedication.
Without you there, yesterday would have been a totally different kettle of fish.
Before I arrange the next one, I would like to confirm the dates with you to make sure you can attend, and next time, to save the long drive on the Sunday morning, come down on the
