Hi thebirdman68 as a rule we meet at Harry's and park up wear ever we can find a spot. Unfortunately the days when AMCCA had control of the car park by way of a club member manning the chained off section of the car park are long gone and Harry’s has turned in to sort of a free for all. I was surprised last month to see a car memorabilia salesman taking up three prime car parks with a stall selling old signs also members of the local car club with their cars parked on a 45 degree angle taking up two car parks and standing in the third till there mates arrived.
IMO Harry’s has run its course and it is time to find a new venue where we can have our regular monthly get together in a less crowded venue like maybe Hungry Jacks at Mount Annan. This venue has a huge well lit car park without speed humps and lots of other outlets such as Macers and KFC all together in the one spot.
At the risk of picking at an old scab, I would like to hear some feedback from other club members on what are your thoughts.
:feedback:

Although we weren't around for those times at Harrys it sounds good to have a better suited venue (sans speedhumps) and this venue would be more convenient for all the locals from in and around that area. I love the idea. What do you think Mark and Barbralea? Kevin? Ray? Cheryl and Ross? Warwick and Nan? to name just a few :)

Agreed that Harry's has its issues, not least of which is that the cops are all over it.
But its easy and its hard to come up with a helpful alternative.
Mount Annan is not in Sydney, prefer a more central location for the initial meet at least.

I know we had this issue before and tried the Homemaker Centre at Warwick Farm at the Cafe but i still believe this to be a great location. The Cafe has new owners and changed names to Cafe Mediera. The Carparking area is large and well lit and close to both a Hungry Jacks and Steakhouse. Might be worth a try.

I'm long over Harrys but arnt they a sponser and supporter of our club. In the old days we ran the show whenHarrys first opened nobody went we even had outdoor movies in the carpark what is happening there is great for the car scene and its exactly what the sponser wanted was a full carpark so now its grown so big that we need the second venue as an option .as this club grows it has to be well lit with varoius food outlets and plenty of parking theres one near the crossroads oporto etc but there must be others that look quiet as well.........:drink::drink: cheers

Usually able to grab a spot even on the busiest of nights on the Harvey Norman,Kebab stand side of the street.
All the cool cats wanna park near the pie van.:hangloose:
It will possibly be a little hectic early on with a Ford cruise leaving from there this Satee night.

Hi all
We usually go to Harry's every month were finding the crowds are growing rapidly , there are a fair few of us so we try to get there a little earlier to avoid being stuck down the back any location is good for us as long as we're together
Cheers Mick

Harrys doesnt have a big crowd every week, it seems everyone wants to go on only one night a month........
change nights if you all want to park together.

Gene, great shots and a very good night I my opinion the car of the night was some blokes 1972 Black Dodge Charger a top car , also did you spot the wheels that would look great on Joe's TA. John

My first thought when I saw the wheels was .....now that's bling....I'm thinking Joe would be slim enough to pull off the 3/4 fake fur coat with the Panama hat......jus pimpin.....and that Dodge was something alright.....and Karl's Blue 65 Corvette looked straight off the showroom floor - a real time warp...definitely plenty to look at last night:fantastic:....might have a photo of you standing around ....if I can find it
