My mistake, you do come on here!! Usually pass you on pump hill bridge, had a little run behind you on the slip road past the vauxhall garage a while ago (think it was you anyway!!) Nice plate by the way

ahh i do see another sometimes on pump lane not sure who.... there is another UK300 round the corner to me that i think belongs to someone i used to know called Ben, it has a private plate on it too but not sure what it says..... not used car for a while, got an R1 2 weeks ago and can't get off it.
So i take it that your in a RB5, very nice, my mate Tim lent me his when my old wagon got stolen years ago, i like them.
i'm sure that i also have seen an old mate Mike W in a blue sti 03, i'm sure he's around chelmsford still (we used to skate)

Yep thats me in the RB5, not using it so much now either, nothing like an R1 though, I now got a fiesta diesel for work, costs me £80 a month in diesel v the £200 the scoob was costing me,not to mention the mileage I was adding to it. I do appreciate the RB so much more though now when I drive it. Would love a bike someday but cant afford it just now.
Will still wave even in my fiesta (burgundy P Plate), just so you know who it is, and Ill keep an eye out for the bike to

alternative transport seems a good idea, especially when saving money while standing still in traffic Q's.... i'm just trying to spread the mile out over two motorbikes and the scoob.... keep promising to ride my push bike to work in billericay to save fuel and miles but it don't happen that often..... i'll keep an eye out for you, Blue R1 03 with loud high level micron can.

118trades.com i think. a friend of mine used to rent a room off him a while back. i bumped into mike the other week in the riverside inn - they're now sponsoring either west ham or ipswich town (can't remember which and i'm not into football). nice to see someone do their own thing and make a success of it. he said he uses snet so you may get a reply from him when he next looks

i thought so (that's what the guy who used to rent the room from him said and that was the impression i got when i last spoke to him). as far as i know he is still based in barrack sq though - friend of mine works with hotchilli.com and they're on the same floor i think. you probably did see jakesy in the inn. don't really know him but had a few chats in the pub over the years and he's a very sociable sort of bloke. i think a friend of theirs was promoting the "pickapub" web site a few years ago (you may have seen some of the banners a few of the local pubs had up - think the rose and crown in rainsford rd had one, and the compasses in broomfield rd) although i may just be confusing myself with too much detail now!!
