Firstly - I haven't read many of the responses to this thread....


Nick, Sorry you felt like you were left out. That was not planned in any way shape or form.

I can't comment on other people, but I did try to speak to everyone, and I was not ignoring you or pushing you away at any point throughout the meet.

As for the quiz, I can't actually remember how I found out about it, and I was certainly not the first to be told about it either!(I don’t have a problem with that BTW, as I just cross the bridge as I get to it) I knew there was going to be a quiz as it was mentioned on the forum before hand, but I didn’t know when, where and who by etc.

Myself and a few others decided to put both tents together to try and create a more Central point which we could all stay in for a social drink, and meeting new people etc. And this is where the quiz took place. The idea of four random groups was a very good idea (whosever’s that was), and did help us all meet new members. However it’s a pity we didn’t all stay together once the quiz had finished.

As for the music, I must admit I did think it was a little loud at times, however an no point did anyone ask 'Do you mind turning that down' - If that was the case, action would have been taken by either myself, or the owner of the MP3 player / Laptop / phone which was used for the music source.
As for the talking, shouting and laughing in the tent.... Come on mate!! Its a meet in the middle of a field that happens once or twice a year! People are there to have a laugh, have a drink, and show their cars... Did you really expect us to whisper to each other???  
As for the 'Turning music off at 10:30' etc... Well... My Gran goes to bed later than that!
The group photos… We left it too late on the Saturday, so I suggested Sunday to a few people, next thing the sun had gone down so we had no choice!

As fast as Sunday came, Omegas vanished!   I know people had other commitments which I FULLY understand, however I (and a lot of other members on here) didn’t expect them to be so soon. Guy must have had a shock when he woke up and got out of his van, as half of the members has gone!  

The runway… Like I said to you, we shouldn’t really have been on there as it is still live in places. I didn’t know what was going on when a few members went on the runway on Saturday… And I still don’t know who, or what happened. All I know is that the time which I went on the runway in my car, was purely a case of ‘sod it, I will join them’ as others were already on their way there… and like sheep, everyone followed! And YES… we did all get bollocked by the farmer!!!

Over all, I enjoyed the meet... Yes things weren’t brilliant, and the separation wasn't ideal, but that’s beyond my control really.

All I can say is:

Thanks for everyone that turned up, and I deeply hope that you all at least enjoyed SOME of it!

The York meet will be happening again, and your ALL welcome to come along if you wish.

i never made a complaint about the music
i just said that if i couldn't get my boys back to sleep after they was woken up gone 2am i would of asked for the noise to be kept down
that was all

i managed to cuddle my boys back to sleep so i left it at that

Ian, in my opinion we had a great meet, and I thank you for organising it, yes there were issues with the facilities, but we, and other talked about that, old skool camping. This was a big meet, and given that not everyone will be happy with everything, this is no way a reflection on you and your organisation, in my opinion.  The site was great, not really anyone to disturb, and I will be at the next one. Did you say August......

Ignore the bit about the music then mate!

......but was ignored so .......

she wasn't when she was in our 'noisey tent' on the Friday night.  :-? :-/

[TheBoy]

As for the 'Turning music off at 10:30' etc... Well... My Gran goes to bed later than that!

Wasn't a problem for me, as I purposely pitched away from that tent, and I wasn't going to bed that early.

But there will always be people attending with lit'luns, and whilst we can't entirely pander to them, maybe a quieten down by, for eg, 11pm etc?  I'm not on about everyone going to bed then, or 'lights out' type silence, just a awareness that peeps are trying to kip down.


Though I thought it was a very well organised meet, great idea with the marquees , and to have the field to ourselves .
