CW, I think you will find that we are all not as impulsive are your good self.

The only problem now is that everyone is raising the bar! I originally thought that a STi8 at the end of the year was going to be enough to allow me to keep up with you b'stards. Now I realise that anything short of a Spec-C/WR1 will still leave me at the back!

I did like that P1 however, but I have to have 4 doors.

I will try and make it on Wednesday, steel give me a call if youre also going so we can meet up and head up together??

I will be hopefully looking to get a wagon in a year or so as I need to be able to carry my bike around and its a bit more stealth than the saloon, what with all these crims round here.

beefy, ever heard of "roof racks". amazing invention, allows you to buy the car of your dreams, say a spec c or wr1, then attach things like boxes, ski's and bikes to the top of it
have to organize a ride out together by the way, been out this morning for a short 16 mile hike up werneth low
see you wednesday.

The bug IS back..................but I can't make tonight. I forgot I had an appointment with the golf course tonight..........and its free so I ain't turning it down!

Have fun.

By the way, can we find an evening to get together round mine when everyone is free?

OK OK! Give me a chance!!!

Playing at a respectable country club in the Cheshire countryside!! You're exhaust won't just put me off my swing, it'll probably change the flight of my ball with the sonic boom!

Seriously, i'd sack it off, but its been booked for a while with a mate I don't see very much. Let me know if any of you fancy a blast at the weekend.

LOL thanks pete, have a good game.

sat outside work last night watching the lightning and thunderstorm over stockport
hear a tremendous clap of thunder, and turned to my m8 and said "not as good as my exhaust!"
then the second wave hit, and made us shake
"ok, ok, so that was quite good" hehe.

I think you had to be there

see you later boys,
chris.

barnesy, nice to hear from you did you get my text last night?
hope to see you out soon, are you up for the mini welsh tour?
andy, thought you knew I was off to work, sorry m8, but that was the best drive along the barnsley road from holme moss to mottram I've had in years, not a single car in sight, and all those lovely long sweeping curves to attack
see you soon,
chris.

ps, I texted super when I got to work around 10pm ish, he texted me back at 12:10 ! saying he had just got in reckons he got lost

You did not want to follow me - got lost somewhere in Huddersfield and did not get home till midnight. Damn that Sat Nav! (Must listen to it next time)

Did a re-reccie of a new route to the north and have found that the roads are sh1te! Either too tight and twist to get half a dozen cars down or just straight, flat with speed cameras every mile. No fun at all.

I'll stick to our cheshire roads for now, which are much more scooby friendly.
