brucepji Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 I have just moved to Kennet Island in Reading too. Haven't seen many Zeds about tho. Quote
SwainTrain Posted July 3, 2012 Author Posted July 3, 2012 I work for Symantec. Haha, I work for Canalys (the analyst firm), we do a lot of work with you guys. I don't actually look after the Symantec account myself but our guys are up at your offices pretty often. It seems all the Reading Z'ers are coming out the woodwork, could be a chance for a cheeky little Madejski meet up! Actually bumped into a guy on Weldale Street on Sunday night. Had my car parked there and as I walked around the corner he was crouched down with his hands around my rear calipers! With heart in my mouth I walked over (expecting him to run off) but he stood up (much bigger than me, eek!) and waited for me to approach him. Ends up he was a fellow Z'er who has some problem with his rear brakes at the moment and was checking to see what movement I had on mine. Also ends up he works on the door at a club in town so embarrassingly enough he seemed to remember me, although likely in a more more drunken state. Nice chap though. Quote
SwainTrain Posted July 3, 2012 Author Posted July 3, 2012 Yep that is my exact route! What colour is yours? Cant seem to recall seeing another Zed on my Journey in but ill keep my eyes peeled! Silver, pics to come up shortly when it's back from Jez @ H-Dev. You can't miss it as the (standard) number plate almost reads "Geek", which funnily enough I guess I am. Quote
370Ad Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 Looking forward to seeing the pics I cant actually make the next Jap Meeting (17th) but happy to do a Zed only meet most week nights. Quote
brucepji Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 I can do a meet at the stadium, conveniently close to Kennet Island too. Quote
SwainTrain Posted July 3, 2012 Author Posted July 3, 2012 I can do a meet at the stadium, conveniently close to Kennet Island too. Bruce that thing looks mean! Quote

Mikesding Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 I've definitely only seen a couple of Zeds in Reading.. where are you guys hiding? Quote
370Ad Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 Well that's it then, Zed meet Madjeski! How does Tuesday 10th sound?! Quote
Jez @ H-Dev Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 I might be up for it I drive past Reading everyday to/from work - live near Twyford and work just off J13 Newbury. Quote
SteveRS Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 Might be able to add some more to that list for this meet, I'll see if the guys who attend Croydon Valley Park fancy it Quote
SwainTrain Posted July 3, 2012 Author Posted July 3, 2012 Well that's it then, Zed meet Madjeski! How does Tuesday 10th sound?! 10th sounds pretty good for me. Best we move this to the 'Meet up' thread, rather than randomly on my welcome page, seems a little self centered? :-) Quote
SwainTrain Posted July 3, 2012 Author Posted July 3, 2012 I might be up for it I drive past Reading everyday to/from work - live near Twyford and work just off J13 Newbury. Get involved, especially after the hard work you put into my Z today - running like a puddy tat :-) Never got a chance to say thanks in person, I'll drop you an email. Quote
SwainTrain Posted July 3, 2012 Author Posted July 3, 2012 I have started another thread for chat regarding the possible meetup in Reading. viewtopic.php?f=93&t=63483 Quote
