It could have been me - full decat and pimp tints - I always wave to other scoobies - but very often all my concentration is required to keep the thing out of a ditch.

Maybe its because I drive a meer uk DBM turbo ( nothing meer about it too me ).

No tints on this one either.. I saw this one lastnight at 4.45pm heading from the BP garage past the Bridgehouse pub. ( No ditches round there Jimbob so no excuses )

I'll look out for you all.. and promise to wave if im awake

The Weather Vane is near the 3M building - just by the roundabout and the Travel Inn.

The time sounds about right to see Neil.

Could well have been me on my way to the Southern Industrial Est. from Crowthorne.

Gave up waving years ago. People just look at you like your mad.

Chris I know what you mean. I see a modded Bugeye everyday going to work, and you'd expect him to wave, but he just looks at you as if you are some crazy man!

Well, before Neil or similar jump in and say something, OK I probably am a crazy man!

BTW if you are local, why don't you come to the next meet.

Why not. Only take me 10 minutes from work. It's easier to get to than the Surrey meet anyway.

See you guys on Thursday (take its still 7:30 at the Leathern Bottle)?

Chris, yes it is. Don't worry about the muppet nature of the thread, as we're not really that bad in person!

I have no idea I'm afraid! There's a couple of people on here based in Sandhurst, and IIRC one of them owns a red one (or did). Not sure what MY it was though.

Have you been to any of the Surrey meets then?

No, too far away. I'm in Farnborough, and the meets are out the other side of Guilford.

Spot the lazy git. Should really make an effort.

I wouldn't worry about being lazy - I've only been to a few! A few of us from the Bracknell meet (Neil (Scoobyjawa), Graham Stocker and myself) used to go to the Sussex Meet, the Surrey Meet, and of course the Bracknell one.

It did get a bit tedious, and certainly knocked up the mileage on the car, and to be honest, I haven't been to any other meet for quite a while really, for exactly the same reason as you - laziness! Plus, quite a lot of the time it's bonnet up stuff, and this for me gets boring quite quickly. You'll notice with the Bracknell one, that we very rarely get our bonnets up, and just sit around eating and talking about all kinds of things. It's normally a good laugh, so hopefully you'll enjoy it.

So on the bonnet up front is your car bog standard, or have you done anything to it? I'm surprised I haven't seen you around as I'm always driving around the Farnborough, Crowthorne, Sandhurst, Wokingham, and Bracknell area. I drive a MY00 Green Wagon with tinted windows, and will wave back if you see me!

Might have seen you once.

I'm usually around the Frimley area or Bracknell or heading up and down the A30 from Camberley to London.

Kwiky - I dunno! I'm usually over Wokingham at least twice a week in the evening, and every now again I'm at Burger King!

How come you haven't been to any of the Bracknell Meets? Do you go to the Reading one? I'm thinking of heading along to the next one so if you do I might see you there.

That could well have been Graham Stocker and his wife. Not sure her hairs dark though, but they owned a Type R until recently. Graham's wife used the car during the day, and then Graham would use it for the rest of the time.

Did the number plate end in WRX? If so then that was G.

Edited to add - not sure they would have been over the Frimley area though....

Also seen a bloke (who waved for a change) driving an STI5, or a majorly modded 99/00, in sonic blue, with a load of stickers on it. Any ideas? Looked a shed load better than my crap covered P1.

Blimey - how bigs this thread got!!!!

Scott - your as crazy as Murdoch from the A-Team LMAO!!

Chris - I don't think its you mate, doesn't sound like it has a SS on it but who knows!! Do you have a passenger normally and do you have white hair (please don't take offence )
Its all very tongue in cheek of course, but if it is you - give us Bracknell nutters a wave - we won't look at you weird (well too late to wave to me as mines off next week but hey!!!)

No white hair. Not me.

Seen a couple of other P1's in Bracknell.

Seen an old bloke with white hair in a P1 on the A30 in Frimley. Didn't wave. Come to think of it, must be the same bloke. Looked about 65 - 70. Same bloke?
