| Hi all, The first Briskoda meet of 2008 and it was a cracking day very warm and the sun was out and the meet location was in Perth. We had a grand total of two cars that turned up and that included mine and JRP from Aberdeen, we may have been small in number but did not stop us from having a good day out. We decided to have a meal in the harvester and afterwards took a few pics from the day, I even tried to get a skoda owner to come along and also stuck a note under a fabia vrs in the car park. Here are some of the pics from the day out. Cheers Davy JRP's Octavia 2.0 tdi Lauren and Klement ![]() Our Fabia vRS ![]() Group Photo ![]() Shot from the rear taken by Skodagirl1985 ![]() Another Group shot ![]() The Red vRS I stuck a note on ![]() And if you don't suceed in getting enough briskoda members take Skodagirl1985's idea of roaming the car park for Skoda's!! ![]() ![]() |

| I think maybe the fuel strikes maybe put some folks off to be honest. How was Knockhill? Davy |

| Knockhill was great thanx, except I got sunburnt ![]() I was posted at the chicane all day; had to deal with 2 incidents; a Caterham with gearbox failure and a Mini that met with a tyre wall and ended up on its side. New Minis are Heavy. I was ok for derv in the end; I guess I'm still getting used to how economical this thing is.

| What a shame that only 2 cars turned up. I feel bad now for not attending (although i said from the start i couldn't go) Hopefully we can drum up some more interest for the next one. Wonder if we can do a poll to see where abouts in Scotland all the members are located, to get an idea of the best location that would get more members to commit to a meet. |

| I think we need somewhere central for everybody to attend beacuse we have folks from aberdeen, dundee, edinburgh, glasgow dumfries so not everybody is a winner where their located, because the scotland region covers a lot of gound. I also have that same problem with another forum that I use. |

| It can be tough, sometimes the problem then divides up into Regions East/West etc..which is rubbish. Ideally the venue should be changed every meet to suit those who live out of that certain region, just to make it fair. |

| Thats usually the best way i find. On other sites, people complain about having to travel a 100 mile round trip etc to a meet. Only trouble with here is, there's not that many of us to start with. |
