Default Is it OK if I hang around?

I've been floating around your forum for a few weeks so I thought I'd finally say "hello".

I don't own a Scooby I'm afraid, but we do have 2 in the family and I think I'd quite fancy one one day. Seen tons of them in Wales over this last week, I seem to have followed one at least twice each day (can never stay in front of the damn things for long!!!)

May have bumped into a couple of you previously when I've been hanging around a couple of your RR days at Power Engineering too

You don't need a scoob to be on here, They are a great bunch (even PSlewis!!) It's been 12 months since I had the scoob but still get on here most days.

I was there on Saturday, but not until about 4pm to pick up a courtesy car after dropping mine off, I heard there was a few Scoobies there for a RR day. It took me over 5 hours to get from mid Wales so I was later than expected

That's why you need a Scoob, you'd have got there quicker

Luddites are the least of her worries; Id be more concerned about the desperate, lonley, fat, ugly middle-aged men's pathetic attempts at sharking.....

ooo Cat n Fiddle, excellent road used to cycle up that as a teenager, now I'm old(er) I realise its much more fun in a car

If anyone local to me sees me in a black modified focus give me a wave or a flash (of the headlights!!!!)
