Hi All. I am heading up from Bedford Sunday morning, and if it is okay will meet you all at Thurrock Services at 9.00 am.

After Brighton, I am then heading off to Hayling Island. So I could team up with the guy from Porstmouth on the way home.

Do we get a set route or what ?

Similar apologies from me - except my excuse is self-induced alcohol poisoning!

I hope you had a good day (you had the weather for it).

Daniel

Nice to see everyone again and to see some new faces (for me anyway )

A great day out - weather was pretty decent and rounded off nicely by the blatt to the Brewers Fayre up on Devils Dyke or whatever it was called

Thanks to Kim (yet again ) for organising Roll on IOW

BTW, Plantie - I finished my lunch first

Nev, nice pics mate. I like the web site, works very well.

Oh well best start as we mean to go on with the infamous Maffa respect list.

Respect to:

1) Burger King at Pease Pottage. My saviour whom without I would have faded very quickly from my hangover.

2) The chippy on the pier. Especially the well spoken waitress

3) The waffle stand. Mmmmmmmmmm!!!!

4) The Crepe stand. Double Mmmmmmmm!!!!

5) NCP - Whole level just for us. It was as if it was meant to be.

6) The arcade. How cool was Daytona 4 player !!!!!!!

7) Devils Dyke. Even though we all took a two second look & then went straight into the pub!!!!

8) Those mental rides on the pier. That thing that went upside down was mental & so was that funny waltzer roller coaster!!!

9) Kim - for keeping her stomach in whilst on that funny upside down thingy!!! & also for not getting a rain drenched mullet!!! (actually scratch that & lets say respect to the weather - Sun all day)

10) The go-carts. Wahoooo!!!

Oh & last but not least I should say a big respect to my lovely new downpipe that will make the Space Shuttle sound like a Mosquito !!!!!!!

Disrespect to:

Those bloody toilets below the pier. I think we came to the conclustion that they smelt like flowers!!!!!

Yeah must say a great day was had by all, the weather was great & the food was freely flowing Nice to see so many new face coming down south for an outing, hope to see you all again soon.

peace

MAFFA

To those who enticed me onto that first ride.....I hate youuuuuuuuuuuu, boy did that make me feel ill (p.s. to Ruth - sorry for frightening you on that ride )

Maffa - you looked great in that black helmet mate

Big shout to Ang who's idea the day out was (my mullet sister )

See you soon, Dave.

Just to add my thanks for a great day out, who says you can't have fun at the seaside at the end of September?

It was great to meet everyone really, all new faces (except Disco but it was great to meet up with you again).

Mark a special mention needs to go to you as it seems that everyone else who suffered in uncomfortable silence won't mention it. You are the pulling King! Five seconds in the lift and he was eating out of your hand and rubbing your head!

A great thanks you for all the organising of the day, it was superb.

The blatt in the country proved to this 'newbie' that the PPP can't be added soon enough... oh and thanks for not calling me that in the pub or at the doughnut stand.

Thanks also for teaching me how smashing cars into walls make them flip over (in Daytona at least).

Hopefully see you all soon next time your mad enough to let me tag along!

Mark

A big hello from the daytona daddy! It was a smash and grab thing as I took it on the last lap. That was a tactical crashing approach to winning, planned (almost) from the beginning.

Hello to everyone we met, can only remember your scooby net names not your real ones!

Sorry we missed the pub meet after, but we had a roast dinner waiting for us on Hayling Island.

If anyone was behind me I apologise for the smoke and oil, and I do know my wheel wobbles.

Great day, worth a 350 mile round trip.

See you all again soon.

Jimmy and Nick

Disco such a lake of sportsmanship is terrible isn't it?

Almost like 'bumping' people in Sega Rally, especially when that person has a unique amount od movement on the steering wheel and a chair that like to move around on its own!
