Pete, I'd like a ride out in the Capri if I'm there. However can you please ensure the wheels are firmly attached before we go anywhere this time :wack: ;)

Pete C

24-10-2003, 15:39

Jeff, are you expressing concern with my mechanical skills purely because the last two times you've been in a vehicle piloted by me one of the wheels has tried to part from the rest of the car? :D

barryjdart

24-10-2003, 21:04

It's easy to find. You how to get to Simon's. If you take junc 18 M4 towards Bath (A46), at the roundabout just past Pensylvania take 3rd exit towards the west (A420), and when you get to the next BIG roundabout take 1st exit (A4147) towards Kensham and follow the Ring Road to the 2nd roundabout, i.e. ahead at 1st.,and take 3rd exit into the Bowlplex and follow the road into the lower car park and go to the far end. Look forward to seeing you. :wave: :wave:

Andy Dee

08-11-2003, 23:02

:eek: It was close! I think the Golf Driver saw the whites of his eyes.

I didnt not expect to see a car coming the other way overtaking, Last i remember thats a solid line his side?

I forgot what a game of death those 3 lane carriageways can be.

Lesson learnt.:o

Oh and Nice to seee everyone again...good turnout!

Nicely

08-11-2003, 23:49

And I just flew off...giving an XR4i a bad time and later having a Beemer glued to my bumper after the Wylie dual carriageway. Had to show him who was boss... :nod:

Good meet, if a bit cold. OK, it was fecking freezing! :(

Good meet, as usual, but absolutely freezing.

I managed to get a lift there in an S14a and a lift home in a different S14a! I might have to have a word with Grandpa Young about pipes and baccy at this rate :nod: :p

I enjoyed going out in AMD's loony Alpine (:notworthy ) and getting Pointblank's advice about how to spend money you can't afford on bits for S13s (he knows it's true :thumbs: ).

Finally, Plank of the Day must go to some berk in a Probe :ghey: who decided to show a pair of S14a's (in obvious convoy :rolleyes: ) a clean pair of heels on the ringroad - only to be humbled beyond imagination when they had finished toying with him :rolleyes:

With these people never learn.......? :smash: :smash: :smash:

I was freezing and I was wearing a sweatshirt and fleece. You on the other hand only had a T shirt so I can't imagine how cold you were :rolleyes:

Er, that's true, actually......:wack:

Even I (eventually) succumbed to wearing a fleece.

All I'll say is, Ranulph Fiennes must be on acid or something - f*ck walking 400 miles unaided in -50c etc.:rolleyes:

Oh, and it's not like I've been ill all this week or anything.....:thumbs: :rolleyes:
