There'll still be the day you think, well just a little extra boost won't hurt?!

Current forecast is for it to be peeing down overnight, and occasional showers tomorrow...

...might be going in a tin-top.

Went for a trip to Northampton in the two seater Friday evening. It poured down all the way there and all the way back. Came back about midnight in the rain along the A14 at a steady 70mph. Best part of 200 mile round trip. It was great! After all it's only water! The missus wasn't as enthusiastic about it as I was though, I guess it was something to do with me having a full set of waterproofs and she didn't The only casualty was my 'phone which somehow got drowned despite it being in my pocket. Oh well I needed a new one anyway!
Anyway if it's pi$$ing down I won't bother!
But hopefully it'll just be light showers if it rains, so I hope to be there!
Look forward to seeing you all.
Cheers
Jon

I did that earlier this year, it was doing a passable impression of a spirit level . It was also possessed by some sort of evil spirit as the ringtone was going through it's complete repertoire for about 2 hours. 2 days in the airing cupboard and a recharge sorted it though.





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Anyone know what time the show starts? I had a look at Totalkitcar's site, and at Snetterton's, but nobody's letting on...

...I'd guess that it'll be 10:00, but it would be nice to know!

I was the passenger in the GSXR car when it blew! Going like stink, hammering it round all the corners, then a huge cloud of blue smoke and it was all over.

Shame, 'cos it was going so well. Rescued attachment dscf0011.jpg
