Mike, nah, I ain't sharing so

Re the points plus tunnel thing, use it when you buy your **** at the Tunnel. If you get 2 full allowances that = a free ticket

Not that I'd condone smoking

Hair won't be blue i'm afraid... working with joe public and it's not so good to have blue hair... not bringing mine as it cost so much last time... used as much fuel as a cossie on greys!!!

What's Mike got now then? that white EsCos he had last time? or something new AGAIN???

You guys sure know how to spend...

Owain, if it makes you happy, I'm still in the slow black Skoda

Mike still has the white escos with the best brakes I have ever had the pleasure to us.

IIRC, 385mm disks with 6 pot water cooled APs at the front and 350mm rears with 4 pot titanium pistoned APs. I love that car! Amazed that Mike let me drive it for a lap, less amazed that he wouldn't swap it for my Skoda

That's only because he needed someone to sucker into babysitting Caitlin whilst he went out for a lap with Jen.....

DocJock/MikeR,

You both have mail. Looks like I might not be able to make it. Having said that, I could get a cheeky lap in at the end of August during a flying visit!

John,

All is not lost.

Because we might not be able to make it, I let DJ know, and our room will be allocated to someone else. If we can make it last minute, we'll book somewhere else and see you there.

All the old crowd are going to be there so it would be a shame to miss it.

Yep me and a couple of mates will be hitting the Dam on the way back as we did on the last trip!!!!

I think 2 nights at the Ring and 1 night in the Dam as its only a couple of hours to get there.
