Bluewater meet - Sat 6th April

Yes, it was snowing here most of the day but none of it laid. Clouds cleared, sun came out and it was a completely different picture. All dry now.

Things will be good for Saturday. High pressure will dominate more and more from now, leaving less cloud, quieter winds and dry conditions.

Weatherman Rash strikes again!! :D
 
Shall we say 8pm for tomorrow?

For anyone who can't make 8pm, it's no problem, just get there when you can, we'll be there.

Ok for me. Have you got some directions or map for new and not so new people to find the right car park?
 
Might join you boys to see some cool Mercs and finally meet some ppl off the forum!

I'll be in a yellow BMW M3 tho (ban?!)

Cheers,
Bill

I'm sure you will be welcome even with a dead Merc :-)

Hey Bill,

Cool, it will be good to have you with us.

Nothing wrong with an M3 bud :thumb:

I'm just about to post up details of where we're meeting..... give me 10 mins or so
 
Nice one. Knew I should have bought the 1992 500E I was considering a few months ago...

Still tempted! :cool:
 
Directions to the meeting point:

Ok, so I will try to explain where we meet as simply as I can (Bluewater is a bit of a maze if you don't know it :crazy:)

We usually meet on the 1st floor of one of the multistory carparks round the back of Bluewater. As you drive round the back of Bluewater clockwise, I believe it is the 2nd multistory that will be on your right.

Obviously, if you find yourself going round the back of Bluewater anti-clockwise, the multistory will be the 2nd to last on your left.

Attached, is a map of Bluewater.

Ignore the BLUE line on the map!!
I pinched this map from another forum as it seems to be the only decent map of Bluewater I could find. They were obviously meeting at the end of the blue line.

The RED line is the route that I take:

I believe there are 2 directions in which you can enter Bluewater.
Personally, I head up the M2 and get off at the Bluewater exit and enter using the RED route.

You will see that the RED line takes you over 2 roundabouts.
After the 2nd roundabout, you will see an up-ramp that will take you up to the 1st floor of the multistories.

The up-ramp has 2 lanes - stay in the left lane and follow it into the 1st floor of the multistory.
Once you enter the multistory structure, which I have indicated using a dotted RED line, take the first turning on the left which will take you into one of the parking areas.

Go ahead about 20metres and then turn right.
Go straight ahead and you will see that you can actually cross over into the neighbouring multistory.
Cross over and turn immediately left.
Drive alittle bit and you will see us.

The dotted RED line illustrates the above instructions.

The YELLOW dot is where we meet.

Now, the first left after the up-ramp is actually an exit, so be careful as you enter it!
Yes, I know, not ideal, but it is the route I take :rolleyes:

If you want the other route, follow the GREEN line on the map:

Instead of using the up-ramp, follow the road round the back of Bluewater and enter the multistory by going into the 2nd entrance on your right
.
Turn immediately left.
Go straight ahead and you will come to a ramp which take you up to the 1st floor (indicated by the dotted GREEN line).
Go up the ramp and drive ahead.
Go slowly because you will need to turn left into the parking areas.

If this isnt clear, ask someone else. lol:D:rolleyes:


NOTE:

This will also be the meeting place for the other Bluewater meet on the 20th April as this is the location that most of us are now familiar with.

Copy & paste these instructions or refer back to this thread if you are attending the meet on the 20th because I am not writing this again! :crazy::D

Thanks Rash, it was the only map I could find as well but for some reason I thought there had been a better one out there!!
 
Today's the day for cleaning the cars for the Bluewater meet tonight :-)

What is that "cleaning the cars" :dk:

If I do make it I will have spent the whole day elbow deep in grease so my car will be almost as clean as the last time you saw it :wallbash:
