Is that road always like that?

Puff, I see that car near enough every day, and I don't believe he posts on here, as I've done a Was It You also. However, he does wave everytime I see him!

In answer to your question about the road, yes it's always like that - morning and evening!

Yes the road is always like that. I have seen that car about too but can't remember if it's the guy who responded on here or not (there are two P1s with very cool rally style plates in the area) Do you get over this way often?

I was down in Bristol for the day - poxy 4 hrs near enuff to get there from Cambs

There were another 2 scoobs I saw on that stretch of road just before J8/9 M4 - DBM MY99 Standard on a T plate & a MY02 02 Reg Silver WRX Wagon, also standard. Anyone?

Came back that way @ 18:15 ish & it was clear my way, but not HWY to Maidenhead stretch

Good to know as I didn't/couldn't complete my work in Bristol today, so I guess I'll be trogging down again...

Hi Roger,

Were you travelling through Bourne End this morning at 8ish? If so, then I know I've got the right car!

Hi Roger,

That's me!

Whereabouts do you work, as we seem to pass each other on the A4, heading in and out of Bourne End/Flackwell Heath and even dodgy single track roads in Bourne End ?!

I have a P1 and use the A404 to get to the M4 and Bracknell once a week, maybe more (only in the office occasionally). I am usually on the A404 by 07:45, so it wasn't me on this occasion but may have been seen in the past.

The A404 seems to be a nightmare for queueing since we all returned after christmas, bloody hate it. 2 Hours to do 45 miles

Hi Paul,

Keep your eyes peeled for me then, as I travel down the M4/A404 some days to get to work (normally a Thursday or Friday), as I'll be coming from the Bracknell junction.

I'm normally on the M4 by 7:45 or so, so I'll be on the look out for you.

Nobody knows who owns the other P1, ** BBS that I often see on the A404/M4 do they? A few Was It You's have been done, but all to no avail.

I don't hit the roads until 8:40 in the morning and head from Marlow through bourne end on the A4155. I don't recognise that reg plate above anyway. If I see you about I will flash and wave. What shape wagon do you drive?

Hi Paul,

I drive a MY00 wagon, with OZ Super L's, pimp tint, and Morrette's as mentioned earlier.

If you see me you'll know it's me as I've got a stick on number plate on the bonnet.

I'll keep my eyes peeled when I'm leaving Bourne End as this is normally after 5:30, so we might see one another then.

That's me!

Did you see the 406 smashed up this morning? Ouch!!! Don't know what happened, but that's going to cost a fair bit of money.

Yes I saw that, the police were putting it on the low loader by the time I went past (8:50 ish) Your car looks very mean and purposeful Where do you live and work (towns not details )? I live in marlow and work in slough so you can guess my journey

Paul,

I live in Bracknell, and work in Loudwater, and hence the M4/A4 and A404 route everyday.

I keep trying to get over to the Slough lunchtime drink, but can't take a 2hr lunchbreak with the boss being in, and the days he's not been in I've had a customer appointment! You need to move it a little nearer!

Thanks for the comments on the car. Just trying to put the finishing touches to it, and then she's all done. The no. plate's been moved to the bonnet for practical purposes more than style as I've got a FMIC hidden away.

You'll have to give us a flash next time you see me, as there's a few Pumas around (as well as P1's! ).

Will do. You travel in the same direction as me along the A4155 so I don't know how I saw you going in the other direction

Paul,

I'm a salesman so I'm driving about all the time, so you might have seen me on the way to an appointment.

As for you going the same way as me normally, doh! Mental block!

Neil - oi! But you might be right!!!!

Paul,

I know!!!

We've passed on the A4 when I've been driving away from the Reading direction towards the A404, and obviously vice-versa for Roger.

What time are driving around in the area then?

Scott
