Most of my mates havn't long had their cars, we've all been through the Corsa/Nova stuff, i had a Nove GSi up until last June.

I've still got my Vectra SRi too, but that aint moved since i bought the Scooby.

Ciaran 08 May 2003 01:04 PM

u must have a bloody demandind job being able to sit on here all day. im just going to get the pug to hopefully build up no claims as long as i dont crash that is.

take it u would not take the scoob down the strip?

Johnny50 08 May 2003 01:09 PM

It's a highly stressful job...honest Guv.

I keep the site minimised, so when a new post comes up i just check it and reply.

Wont be taking the Scoob up Crail, dont want to emabarass myself in a standard car.

If i still had the Cossie i would've went for it though.

Ciaran 08 May 2003 01:11 PM

ciaran

Johnny50 08 May 2003 01:15 PM

Righto mate...i've gotta go too.

It's lunchtime !
Cant be looking on the web where i've got to eat !

Later dude.

RS Grant 08 May 2003 01:41 PM

Sorry boys...

Just up!! I guess that adds to the theory that I have trouble making mornings?? :rolleyes: :D

So the Meeting time is 9am and we will leave @ 9.30am for a slow(ish) convoy to Crail.

I will set my alarm so I will get up, honest.......

Cheers,
Grant

Johnny50 08 May 2003 02:25 PM

£10 says you will be late Grant...You'll go to Aberdeen..go on the pi$$..pick up some posh student..and not get in till 6am..

RS Grant 08 May 2003 02:34 PM

I would be quite happy for that to happen Johnny!! ;):D

Closer to what will probably happen would be:

Go out in Dundee, drive, have a crappy night, try to console myself with a kebab, half of which I chuck away, get back to the car and find that a couple of the seagulls have used my car for target practice... Get home about 1am (ish), feel sick after that dodgy kebab, then crash out in front of the TV!! :D

But I will be there @ circa 9am!! :)

Cheers,
Grant

Johnny50 08 May 2003 02:37 PM

Nice one..
Hopefully i'll be spending saturday morning cleaning the car, seeing as i found a nice flat grass area the other day..it's stil covered in mud !!

RS Grant 08 May 2003 02:41 PM

Ahhhh, the joys of Scooby Ownership eh?? :D

I am working on Saturday but hopefully going to get home a little early so that I can wash the car, maybe even try to wax it again however I dont know if the light will last for me to do a full 4 hour job on it again!! :rolleyes: :)

Cheers,
Grant

Johnny50 08 May 2003 02:44 PM

What wax are you using ?

I'm gonna try and pick some up tomorrow night.

Ciaran 08 May 2003 02:45 PM

grant ur a lazy f u c k just gettin up. u better be on time.
what route r we likely to take to crail. st andrews bore hills route?

RS Grant 08 May 2003 02:53 PM

Yeah, your right Ciaran, I am pretty lazy, but well rested now!! :D

I picked up some Zymol (Blue Bottle/Nice-ish Smell) from Halfords and if you do as it says and wax it, buff it then spray a fine mist of water on it then buff that off with another clean dry cloth then you get awesome results!! :)

I used it after reading a thread in the Styling bit of Scoobynet and now I wont go back to Autoglym... :)

Cheers,
Grant

Ciaran 08 May 2003 02:56 PM

we takin the st andrews route then for the convoy?

catch u later boys back to class to learn about linear motion.

ciaran

RS Grant 08 May 2003 02:57 PM

Yeah just straight through St Andrews and onto the Crail road...

Have fun in class!! ;):D

Cheers,
Grant

Johnny50 08 May 2003 03:00 PM

Cool Grant, i'll pick some of that up tomorrow at Halfords.

Ciaran 08 May 2003 05:14 PM

But here comes Paul... http://mysmilies.creativesell.net/co...ansam-blue.gif


Paul doesnt want to pay the entrance fee, and tells the lady what he thinks about her 10quid fee... http://smilies.crowd9.com/otn/mfinger/2up.gif


He cant get through her thick skull and challenges her to a duel... http://mindscraps.com/s/contrib/edoom/one_samuria.gif


She accepts, but is soon to feel the wrath... http://smilies.jeeptalk.org/contrib/edoom/samurai.gif


Paul is victorious, Scoobynetters rejoice!!! http://smilies.jeeptalk.org/otn/realhappy/jump.gif




Yes, I am EXTREMELY bored at the moment!! I also wanted to try out a couple of wee smilies that I found!! :rolleyes: :D

Cheers,
Grant

teknopete 09 May 2003 01:58 AM

Ciaran,

In u r calc earlier on in the thread u 4got 2 take in2 account
the 250 cars on the strip at £15 a pop :eek:
Which adds £3750 to u r tot. Being realistic on numbers u`ll prob find theres more like 4-5K attend the big mag days (hence fartin space only) [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img] BTW the security at these events is a joke, n not a phunny 1. Had 2 have a few quiet words in ears at the last
big mag day I attended, mainly with members of the buckfast consortium [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

In short guys IMHO the prices have gone up & the standards gone down along with the VFM :( which is a shame as it coulda been good. But without re-investing in the facility it`s gonna force the hardcore 2 look for alternatives ;)

Grant, yeah i remember the £4 days :D that was when most peebs didn`t know what a scoob was, so kickin a55es was a regular event :D

BTW any u guys goin 2 Dicksons on Sat ?

L8r peebs

Pete

RS Grant 09 May 2003 02:06 AM

I dont think I will make it on Saturday but what time are you meeting up to go through cause I might see you on my way to work in Perth...

Are you coming through to Crail then Pete or not going to bother??

Cheers,
Grant

teknopete 09 May 2003 02:13 AM

Grant,

Time 2 b confirmed L8r 2day for Dicksons ;)
Dunno bout Crail yet, still prepping the car for Sat.
I know Keith enjoyed the last time we had a "bit of sport"
and I wouldn`t mind givin he`s new mota the once over.
So if my young lads no workin I may well bring him over.

Pete

RS Grant 09 May 2003 02:16 AM

Good Good...

I am meant to be working but I am throwing a sicky on Sunday, thats why I cant do Saturday as well, might be told not to bother to come back!! :D

If you let him know about the Wet T's etc, then I am sure he will be up for coming along!! :D

Cheers,
Grant

RB5_245 09 May 2003 02:21 AM

When's Crail on, I might be up for it if the..... Will let me out to play, you lot can skin me though by the sounds of it.

RS Grant 09 May 2003 02:26 AM

Its on Sunday....... If you read the Crail Post and the whole of this post then you will get all the details you need.. :)

I'm off to bed as well, its way to late for me to be up!! http://216.40.249.192/s/contrib/lill...p1bluepink.gif

Cheers,
Grant

RB5_245 09 May 2003 02:27 AM

I'm in the middle, is it quicker to get there from aberdeen or inverness. Given I've never been there b4 i've no idea. If you spot me there my car has is the one with the distinctive plate, you can't miss it.

Ciaran 09 May 2003 10:03 AM

well more the merrier as far as im conserned

yes and i know i can not spell.

Johnny50 09 May 2003 10:09 AM

Ciaran, i kan spel no problim at all.

Anyone know what the weather is like for Sunday ?

scoobylav 09 May 2003 10:14 AM

I am not sure that it will be too good. I think overcast with showers is the official version. . . . . but they are usually wrong :)

Johnny50 09 May 2003 10:16 AM

Well at least the Scoobys will get a good shot off the line if it's wet eh ?

Fingers crossed it stays dry for a few pics at Tayside.
