Calling all Aberdeen folk


Recommended Posts

Posted

Before anyone has a go at me, this is not a complaint, just an observation ! [:D]

Looking at the Regional area list, there are over 30 members in the Aberdeen & District area, yet we only ever seem to see the same half dozen or so folk whenever we arrange anything. Even at the SIDC National Day at Alford there was more southern Scottish members there than locals. Come on folks, show yer faces, it's good craic, really friendly folk (honest) and we got one of the best cars up here in Blue Thunder ! [;)]

Here Here Kloon

In the last 2 weeks we have had 2 get togethers and as you state the same old faces....all 5 or 6 of us.

Where are the other 20 plus?

We have a crackin laugh on our outings, [;)] Like Phillip W trying to keep up OOPS Slipped out....LOL sorry Phil...[:D]

Really folks its poor show, no one seems to make an effort.

I must agree the outings we've had over the past few week have been a good laugh with a crackin group of people, and as Mr Mac said you'll get to see first hand my standard MY99 keeping up with STi's [:D][;)].

totally agree with what you guys are

saying but bear in mind that not all folk that surf the forum are free

at the times events/meets are held. 

Plus, you'll have the odd shy guy that may prefer to make friends through cyber space than get out and meet new folk, cos it is really

daunting going to an event/meet for the first time, seeing that

everyone knows everyone else and feeling very much like an outsider.

nothing you can really do to motivate folk to participate, except

perhaps post up good feedback, pictures etc and encourage them to come

along and join in

Don't half of you sheep boys work offshore too?

i work offshore as well and manage to make  (not all) but alot of things , this time off ive been to the SIDC day at Alford , marshalling in StoneDhaven (missed last weekends hill climb due to a abnormal growth out of one of my wheels) and im planning on going to the Speyside rally this weekend , so theres plenty of events for people go to even if they do work offshore

IMY , if people did come along to some of these events they would find out we dont bite lol , were actually up for a good laugh [;)]

neck of the woods, so don't be shy come and say hi [:D]

Here what your saying Imy and yer bang on, must admit I didn't know what to expect when I went to my first meet, didn't know anyone from Jack but now we got a good wee group going, great bunch of folk who always up for a laugh. Just feel more locals could maybe make the effort, even to get talking on here, always seems to be the same folk all the time. Hopefully they'll see the pics and vids from the likes of Alford/Autocross/Fintray and will feel it's worth giving a try, they'd be more than welcome. They can even here how good Craig's car is, AGAIN !!! [:D] Only joking bud [;)]

Some of us get enough grief at home for our car obsessions without making it an even bigger part of our lives [;)]

I'd like to come along to the monthly meets but have been offshore or busy with something else for most of them, I missed alford this year too, offshore again.

I had to use a weeks holidays for the burnsy memorial and the photoshoot last year.

I'll definately make an effort to get to the next meeting if I'm home.

I'm a service hand offshore so I'm always on call, nae good for the social life!
