Macclesfield... who's around?

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I know it is a bit of a long shot but I'll be in Macclesfield around the second weekend of December, and I thought about taking this opportunity to meet some of the WSCC members, so I can associate faces to forum nicknames :) and maybe have a blast in some fast westies ๐Ÿ˜„

I'll be flying over from Italy, so I'll be car-less.

Thanks ๐Ÿ‘‹

I'm about 45 mins (20 miles) south of Macclesfield in Stoke-on-Trent. I'm often into the Peaks chasing cake with @Julie Hall - Joint Peak District AOย and others. Let's see if we can find away to take you with us. Please get back in touch closer to.ย 

ย 

We may have our Cheshire Christmas Curry around that time too ( @Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Secretaryย I hope one's likely this year!), so that would be a great opportunity to meet us all too!

ย 

Best regards,

Ian

I'm not too far away either and would be around for the meet up (although the Westy will be on SORN in December).

Yep, quite a few of us not too far away, and in Macclesfield, you're right on the door step of the Peak District...

Ok, I'll revive this topic. Due to some serious health problems of a family member which prevented my UK visit last December, I've just booked again my flight in for September, so I'll be in Macclesfield from 13th to 18th Sept. I think I'll be having a full free day on the 17th.

@Ian Kinder (Bagpuss) - Joint Peak District AO eventually I can take the train down to Stoke if you're around :)

Perfect timing. Iโ€™m recommencing ย my monthly trips to Germany in Sep and youโ€™ve chosen the week Iโ€™m there ๐Ÿ˜ฑ Iโ€™ve not been since Jan 2020. Iโ€™m sure others in the area may be around to meet you. I hope you have a good visitย

I'm coming over for a company meeting, so I didn't choose the dates really :) I'll be doing trips to the UK more frequently in the next months, I'm sure we'll meet eventually :)

Thereโ€™s a Cars and Coffee event in Congleton, at JP Exhausts Iโ€™ll be heading to. Itโ€™s not too far from Macclesfield, (twenty minutes or so as the Westfield flyโ€™s).

It was great to meet you Alex and I wish you a safe trip home to Italy to get your 1.8T Audi conversion finished.

ย 

You've chosen a great day to visit the peaks, it was nice and sunny, though a little chilly with the wind!

Thank you very much again, has been a pleasure ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

Reviving this thread, I'll be in the UK again from 27th Nov to 4th Dec, staying in Macclesfield as usual, if you want to meet, please get in touch ๐Ÿ˜„

I can bring Italian goodies over (food or anything which can fit in a large suitcase), so if you want something, please PM me :)
