Damn! I was hoping to come to this but I'm in Florida then. I'll have to make the next one. | ||
| Gary Fry (Gary_fry) Username: Gary_fry Registered: 03-2008 Posted From: 86.31.184.78 |
Oh, what a bugger, Steve! I'd much rather be in York than Florida, but sometimes you just have to cope with life's slings and arrows. | ||
| Steve Bacon (Stevebacon) Username: Stevebacon Registered: 09-2008 Posted From: 90.209.11.187 |
I take your point, Gary. What a pisser. | ||
| Steve Bacon (Stevebacon) Username: Stevebacon Registered: 09-2008 Posted From: 90.209.11.187 |
Anyway, you can talk, Mr Judith Chalmers! (None of the young uns will know who that is). | ||
| Carolinec (Carolinec) Username: Carolinec Registered: 06-2009 Posted From: 92.232.199.129 |
You could always cancel Florida, Steve, and come to York instead.  Holiday, anyone...? | ||

Shame you can't make this one, Steve. We'll catch up soon. | ||

I will try to travel up from Southern Sissy Land to get to this, whenever it takes place, I just fancy seeing everyone. As it's north of Watford I was wondering if I will need a cloth cap and to hire a whippet and such as like? | ||
| Carolinec (Carolinec) Username: Carolinec Registered: 06-2009 Posted From: 92.232.199.129 |
That would be great, Terry - it would be nice to put a real face to the name. (cloth caps and whippets aren't obligatory in this part of the world, by the way  ) | ||

This one's taking place this Saturday (April 30th), I believe. Same weekend as WHC in Texas! Is anybody attending? | ||
| Weber (Weber_gregston) Username: Weber_gregston Registered: 03-2008 Posted From: 194.176.105.55 |
I think I may well be free on Saturday... Do you have to be a paid up member to attend? | ||
| Stephen Theaker (Stephen_theaker) Username: Stephen_theaker Registered: 12-2009 Posted From: 92.232.184.206 |
No, they're open to everyone. | ||
| Weber (Weber_gregston) Username: Weber_gregston Registered: 03-2008 Posted From: 86.150.133.73 |
Fancy a car share Mr bestwick? | ||
| Simon Bestwick (Simon_b) Username: Simon_b Registered: 10-2008 Posted From: 86.24.209.217 |
Sounds like a plan... might be heading up a bit earlier though... | ||

I'm afraid I'm not going to be able to make it to the York open evening yet again - got my hands full at the moment with two new additions to the family to settle in (little furry ones!  ). Pity as it would have been nice to meet up with folks. I think this one is going to be a bit of a "send off" for Ally as she'll be on her way to the other side of the world soon afterwards. Ally - sorry I won't get to see you before you go, and I hope it all goes really well for you. Keep in touch with us - I'm sure you won't forget us once you leave Old Blighty! Anyway, sorry I'm not around the board much at the mo. I did manage to watch Doctor Who the other day - one eye on the telly and all my other eyes (ie. the ones in the back of my head too) on the new kitties.  Hope everyone going to the BFS open evening enjoys themselves. | ||

Fuckety fuckfuck fuck fuck fuck Fucking car engine blew up halfway over the fucking pennines. At least the breakdown truck driver was kind enough to drop Simon at the railway station so that he could actually get as far as York. As for me, I either need a new engine or a new car... neither of which I can really afford | ||

Did you check the oil and water, young man? | ||
| Gary Fry (Gary_fry) Username: Gary_fry Registered: 03-2008 Posted From: 86.31.24.131 |
What car is it? Get down the scrappers for a recon. | ||

Glad you got back alright, mate. Lousy luck and felt quite guilty leaving you to go back on your tod. It was a good event, anyway. Nice to see gcw and Soozy again! Along with the likes of Lee Harris and Mark Morris and many others I never even got the chance to speak to... | ||
| Gary Fry (Gary_fry) Username: Gary_fry Registered: 03-2008 Posted From: 86.31.24.131 |
What happened, Weber? Head gasket? | ||
| Weber (Weber_gregston) Username: Weber_gregston Registered: 03-2008 Posted From: 86.147.136.75 |
Something in the engine. I'll find out on Tuesday when the garage reopens | ||
| Weber (Weber_gregston) Username: Weber_gregston Registered: 03-2008 Posted From: 86.147.136.75 |
There was lots of rattling and smoke whatever it was | ||
| Gary Fry (Gary_fry) Username: Gary_fry Registered: 03-2008 Posted From: 86.31.24.131 |
But you do inspect oil and water, yeah? | ||
| Weber (Weber_gregston) Username: Weber_gregston Registered: 03-2008 Posted From: 86.147.136.75 |
The oil was topped up last week... | ||
| Gary Fry (Gary_fry) Username: Gary_fry Registered: 03-2008 Posted From: 86.31.24.131 |
Phew. Well, good luck. Hope it ain't as bad as it looks. |
