Replying to: wimpy4 (Apr 05, 2009 10:26 pm) Joe,   The Five Crowns is a great place to eat and British of course. I have eaten there and they have a private room which can hold around 10-14 people upstairs.   You are right about the limited parking. The lot next to it is shared with Bandera's I think is the name.   If we want parking spaces, the area around Coco's at Fashion Island works. Modest food but usually good parking.   If want to be trendy, Tommy Bahama's. Or Ruby's as there lot is across the street from the resturant on PCH.   So, how many cars do we think might attend?   If we have ten to fourteen cars, we could use the circle at the Island Hotel. The bar and food could make a more relaxed visit.   Let me know what you know. Alan
#18 of 29 5:00 p.m., Friday, April 17th - Island Hotel by wimpy4 Apr 13, 2009 (9:36 pm)
Hi Alan, realistically, I think we should plan on a strategizing meeting this Friday, for next year's gathering. My internet has been down for carpet install the past few days so I might only be able to get one other car - and that's not for sure. I like all of your suggestions for venues. The Island would be nice to see - Palm Terrace Lounge - a beer and their small bites would be fine. I will post an ad here - hopefully others will pick up on it. Please let me know if this sounds OK.

Replying to: wimpy4 (Apr 13, 2009 9:36 pm) Joe,   Sounds like a great plan and I will see you at the Island this Friday. Let's hope the tax deadline crunch has kept people at bay. See you soon, Joe. Alan
#20 of 29 VW Phaeton 2nd annual owner's meeting 4-17-09 by wimpy4 Apr 18, 2009 (11:24 am)
Alan, nice venue but a lot of people from a seminar in the hotel were there in the venue (Palm Terrace Lounge) - fear you couldn't find us in the crowd. Need to re-strategize. Joe
#21 of 29 Another Attempt by ablenav Apr 18, 2009 (11:53 am)
Joe, Sorry we missed each other in the crowd as well.   Let's rethink this and find a way to connect. I parked my Phaeton outside in the boot and waited in the lobby from 5 to 5:45PM for another Phaeton to show up. We should have found a way to get our phone numbers or cell numbers. I know we can't post email address, but what about web addresses? Do you know if we can? Alan Replies to this message: pat (Apr 18, 2009 12:01 pm)

Replying to: ablenav (Apr 18, 2009 11:53 am) The best thing to do for your own protection is make your email address public in your profile. That way only registered, logged-in users can see it, not the web-crawling bots who are looking for unprotected email addresses.   However, if you want to post an address (and I'd recommend a throw away one for the above reason), you are welcome to do so. We've had different rules in the past, yes, but things change.
#23 of 29 Update Contact by ablenav Apr 18, 2009 (12:52 pm)
Pat,   I just did update my email address so that does that mean Joe can contact me? Thanks Alan Replies to this message: pat (Apr 18, 2009 1:01 pm)

Replying to: ablenav (Apr 18, 2009 12:52 pm) Hi Alan.   Click on Community Profile in the Forum Tools box on the upper right. You'll see a place to mark your email public. That's what you need to do so that anyone who is logged in can click on your name to see your address. It it marked private at the moment.   Let me know if you need any further help.   Pat
#25 of 29 The Friends of Steve McQueen Car Show by wimpy4 May 20, 2009 (12:27 pm)
Hi Alan, thanks for working with Pat to release e mail addresses. She is going to need to coach me so I can find your name. I have checked the box to make mine public but am still having to post messages as you can see. We were at the Island before 5 that night and they parked us on the circle to the right facing the front door. There was a used Phaeton dealer I made contact with a few days before and he was going to try to come along with some of his customers but I didn't hear further. Anyway, we went shopping at Fashion Island very successfully for baby gear and the new family addition arrived April 30th and that has pretty much my story from then until now.   The Steve McQueen Car Show is on Saturday, June 6th at Boy's Republic in Chino Hills from 7am to 2pm. The Porsche 356 Club is the sponsor for the benefit of Boy's Republic which does great work. See what you think. It would be nice to have a showing of Phaeton's up there. Maybe this lead balloon will finally get off the ground! Regards, Joe Replies to this message: pat (May 21, 2009 12:36 am) ablenav (May 21, 2009 6:27 pm)
