Dia 8- No, I lived a fair bit away but used to travel through Bulkington. You might remember my red 928S4 in 1990/91 and other cars before and after that.

You'd know the number plate/s if I told you but I'd rather not put them up here.

You never mixed with the local group though did you?

Spoon went to a few meets and santa Pod and Donnington a couple of times,had a ball cost me a fortune in petrol though!! Still it was worth the cost.The Tamworth meet was hilarious when we all were told about the humpback bridge and to take it slow but of course someone choose to ignore that advice and when the airbag inflated after he flew over the bridge it smashed the windscreen!!!OOPPSS! Great times.

Dia 8- I meant local to your home.

Of the crowds running around Bulkington and Bedworth you were never there amongst them.

Do you remember that blue Kat bodied supercharged Sierra?

Not at all, I never once thought that. I remember you never smiled a great deal though!!! .

I actually saw you about quite a bit due to your plate and I know you remember a few of my cars.

Did you from memory have a vauxhall SRI and an Audi amongst others?

Obviously I'm thinking way back now.

My memory isn't too bad where plates are concerned.

You really were a girl that did look sooooo serious and appeared uninterested in good looking males trying to egg you on.

Glad you're smiling now though!!!

I have access to an Impreza now but prefer my Vanquish.
