The Irish Mitsubishi FTO Owners Club

I'm afraid golf and I do not mix, unless the word "crazy" comes before golf. Pitch and Putt is about as advanced as I am and i'm pretty miserable at that too. But yes, ideas need to be put out there and maybe a poll vote to settle it. The only thing confirmed so far is the meet up and a coffee afaik. I would love some paint ball action myself, but i'm open to suggestions.

So it looks like we have a 3 car convoy from Dublin so far. Anymore?

Golfing is for quares

goz this is the 2013 , 10th year meet . not the one in october

Pitch and PutT sounds good

I was gettin mixed up between the two. I was on boards and launching a new website and watching tv and eating a ham and cheese and lettuce roll and taking bookings from my secretary. I lost focus for a second. Sorry about that. 10 years eh? How about one of those flare parties?

Might be a bit early in the year, but when is the 2013 meet? When was the club first launched?

Poker sounds better than golf

Not too early at all, the anniversary is next month...

Any more thoughts John?

Next month? It'll be a cold one so.

A date will need to be set soon then, so I can keep the day and (depending on if it's an over night meet) the next day free. A Saturday maybe will suit most, even though it's my busiest day.

The last weekend in Feb maybe be good. Any idea what to do or where to go be nice to get alot of members to go with or without an fto. An over night one might be good. All depends on number.

And Thomas has a spare FTO if anyone needs it

I'm game for this

How about setting the date and making a decision on this? I propose a 2 part day, the second part being the optional drinks and hotel stay after part 1.

There is a place in Kilkenny. I know we done Kilkenny before but this place does clay pigeon shooting have a rifle range, Quad bikes and archery. They have no website so I sent an email to find out prices. What ye think of something like that. There doesn't seem to be much interest in the meet. It's only 5 or 6 weeks to the end of Feb so need to get the ball rolling. I've added a Poll for which weekend.

I'm ok with that. Apologies in advance for whoever I shoot. I just need a date more than anything, so selected the march date.

I don't think we've shot anything at a meet before, sounds like a plan.

Hopefully I can get more info on it. would be something difference anyway.

Golf. FFS.

We can do that on the 50th birthday

I hope something is decided soon. Otherwise I won't be able to, as I will have clients booked.

That place in Kilkenny sounds like a good spot.

I'm free both of those weekends.

I am going to wait and see what is planned for sure and how many people are going before I say if I am going or not

I doubt I'll be able to make this one, it's my anniversary on the 4th and I value my life.
Best of luck with the meet, it looks like a good one.

If the meet is on the 2nd (Saturday) you should be grand, even if you did party til Sunday.


I would love to see 20 there, but I'm gonna be pessimistic and say I don't see it happening. Plan B might need to be tabled as a fall back option, not requiring certain numbers.

You're not going to get 20 unfortunately.

Dates are the day after a trackday I'll be bagsing passenger laps from, so I won't be going due to petrol costs.

I know 20 is alot. I was just giving the info back to ye. Anyone else got any ideas if those weekends don't suit we can add a different one. I think the kilkenny is out myself.
