    Northern Guys can we help?

    Hello all.

    There is a meet up in FRED LAWTON LTD MELTHAM MILLS INDUSTRIAL ESTATE, MELTHAM HUDDERSFIELD,HD9 4DS

    Can any of the RTOC massive make it ? I am going to go in my five or Megane 230.

    I'll attend this an hour or so for me too but i'd like it if it was the other way round for my daughter.

    A big turn out would be good, makes me quite sad writing this actually.

    Sadly with the said venue we are having to limit the numbers of cars coming to approx 1000-1500, I know it's a dam shame as so many people have come forward on this sad situation from far and wide, but needs must.
    It's overwhelming the response he has had and he said to me today I though I'd do a car meet from the local area with about 30-50 cars...lol well that hasn't gone that way.
    But it's really nice that the car community have come forward in this way and zippy is very overwhelmed by the response I can assure you that.
    We will put a better plan up on the numbers and where from on other thread to keep it tidy, but I think the scoobynet community has priority as this is where he is from and then look at other car forums.
    Zippy is receiving a lot of pm's at the moment and cannot reply to everyone with offers and condolencies and may not be able to reply or except your offers, even though he is very appreciative of them, he just has a limited time with his son and maybe has other ideas for Connor, this is the 1 day that he chooses to have a car meet/gathering, so please accept his wishes as I'm sure he has a lot to deal with at the moment.
    If you would like to donate to him then that's fine but please send to him and only him for security reasons (scammers paradise) no offence by that but it can happen.
    I know it's gone viral very quickly and is very hard to control now but please accept what HE and HIS family want.
    It would be good for the papers to get involved but the wording and title cannot be risked as Connor may read it and dosent know the full situation apart from he's poorly.

    Thanks all for reading this and please respect his wishes

    Carry on with this list in scoobynet for members in here and we will just top the numbers up in the other thread which I will update shortly.
    Regards
    Can the person(s) organising the Facebook page please upload this to the site so people understand zippy and his family's request.

    I stress again priority to this event is given to snet and other car clubs first so please put the total numbers from your clubs along with club name.
    Thanks
    and this for other car club members that have not posted on this list please follow instructions above or can the people in the other clubs involved please upload to your sites.

    Thanks

    Hi Ive only just seen this thread.
    My fella is a member on scoobynet so put my name down on the list with a +5 just incase anymore of our friends wanted to go.

    But no one else is coming with us and they have put it down as R5 gt owners so there is room for 5 more cars if anyone wants to go??

    Shall start the list then we will have to arrange somewhere to meet up on the way.

    Got one place left.
    We have to drive in together if we want to park together as there is no specific club parking areas. So Robbo if you know the Brighouse area can you suggest somewhere suitable and put the postcode up?
    Cheers
