I am 1000 posts old, bloody ‘ell.

Well, what a great BBS this has been so far. I have learned a great deal about scoobies and hope I have contributed to other people’s enjoyment of their cars.

I have saved a fortune by using the parts sections and have received some great advice on subjects I am not so strong on.

I hope in particular I have broken down some of the “magic” that goes into making competition cars tick.

I have met some fantastic people via this BBS; some that I now class as friend’s god help em!

There are certainly some “characters” on here, a real cross section of the world from the ******* to the genius and from the stunningly beautiful to the down right hideous LOL

Thanks for all the fun so far

Here’s to the next 1000.

1000 postings.. Good lord……..me…I’m nothing compared with you. . . a newbie without a scoobee as I don’t pick up the MY00 turbo until 1st Sept, but I have also learnt a tremendous amount from experienced old timers like you.. so thank for the input.

Maybe one day I’ll have 1000 postings…………

Hey chaps - here's fun....1000 postings @ say an average of 1 minute at a time (including thinking time!) = 1000 minutes = over 16 hours worth of postings = roughly 2 working dats of postings (assuming people post at work)
Crikey - no wonder the country is in such a mess - blame the BBS !!!!!

John, where do you find the time? Do you have a keyboard attached to the wheel of the Westie? Composing your posts when you do those gentle trips round the track

John, even as a relative newby, I have to say that this BBS would not be half as good without you. Also, let me say that this BBS would not be half as good without you.

Please keep it up. And, if you can do two things at once, the postings, too.

Hoppy

PS Shame you're a ****e driver in a car that doesn't even work, but hey, Scoobs are for the elite... I'd like to shake your hand one day. Maybe at Dono on the 30th? Whatever, festive greetings and all that.
