Well after going through London thinking it would be quiet every road I had planned to go down was shut I managed to go the wrong way at Southampton coz my sat nav sounds like the wife so I took no notice. Great to meet members I knew and others I did not and although I gave Kristov and lift I did not get sideswiped or rearended result

Well what a wonderful day, both in terms of attendance and weather. We had a short spat of rain that I missed due to being elsewhere (more on that later) but soon a very nice bright dry day. Lots of cars and a good turnout overall. To those who went, many thanks for making the effort to come on down, I hope you enjoyed it, it was a pleasure to meet you all!

I rocked up at the White Heart at 7:45 (because you can never be to early) and wasted a little time doing that last minute polling, radio on to keep myself entertained. Around 8:10 the first of us started turning up (In a 14 plate Mercedes to boot) but soon the whole group was assembled. By 9:45 I yelled for us to make a move, only to realise I'd flattened my battery leaving the radio on! Let that be a warning to you! A quick jump start later and a panic about my TapTurn going haywire and I was back to normal.

The others went on without me but it seems they managed to find the place well enough. I quickly made repairs and hurried to join the group. When I rocked up our space was reserved and waiting.

From there on it was a nice day of comparing exhaust notes, radios, colours mods and stories. A great time with a beer and an obligatory ice cream!

But photos are far more interesting that words so here's a selection from the many I took, and indeed Subota Boy took a fair few photos too, no doubt his will pop up shortly.

Lots of other Japanese cars old and new, stock and modified and of course the Beaulieu motor museum itself to explore kept us all entertain for a good 8 hours. We even bumped into Toyota PR team with their two GT86's including the original UK white TRD which did the Goodwood Hill Climb.

A great day overall, even if I now find myself rather red and sunburned (whoops!) Sill, I can't wait for next year!

should be down your way in a couple of weeks

Hello Kev come to haunt me have you?

I guess that a few tenths of a second on a lap may matter to some, the rest of the benefits will mean sod all to the rest of us.

Would be different but don't think it looks great.

Does remind me of this though

and so do i

Keethos, thank you! I'll be sure to let you guys know my feedback. Must say though, far my dealings with fensport have been very good, albeit only planning my above mods over the phone with Tony.

Nikndel I'll be completely honest - I've never been to any of the events. I may consider going to one when the kit is installed, and hopefully see you there along with some other guys from this site.

No rush for bits stuff starting to appear on the forum now

Forgot to say it's this fella

'..drag..' is a UK phenomenon... men dressing as women and performing in public...

I spent nearly an hour putting together the technical response to the above..
 
.. then I realised - it's not important.
 
Rob275 has identified me as the 'clown'.. so no-one takes me seriously..
 
Will300 has identified me as the 'drunk'. So no-one takes me seriously - and he has probably fucked up my insurance premiums..
 
 
Thanks.

Few better pics, what do people think about keeping the centre part of the wing black ??

Fatrab was testing children in his Sunday School class to see if they understood the concept of getting to heaven.
 
He asked them "If I sold my house and my car (sob), had a big jumble sale and gave all my my money to the church, would that get me to heaven?"
 
"NO!" the children answered..
 
"If I cleaned the church every day, mowed and weeded the graveyard and kept everything tidy, would that get me into heaven?"
 
Again, the answer was "NO!"
 
By now he was starting to smile. "Well, then, if I was kind to animals and gave sweeties to all the children, and loved my wife, would that get me into heaven?"
 
Again they all chorused "NO!"
 
Fetrab was just bursting with pride for them..
 
He continued "Then how can I get into heaven?"
 
 
 
A six-year old boy shouted "Yuv got tae be f**king deid.."
 
 
Kinda brings a wee tear tae yir e'e...

Good news!

The delivery date has been brought forward and I get to collect on Friday.

Can't wait!

Means I don't have to wait till after my holiday.

Still have to go on holiday though.

looking into washers on headlights one of my work partners is a MOT tester yes as already stated if you have hid lights washers must be fitted and work

To be fair we won't have time. I've got to drive down from Manchester, sprint the next day, then drive home! 
 
Always nice to take in the scenic routes, but I'll be trying to do it in as little distance as possible. 

Ipswich town centre is a dump, I live about 20 minutes away and try never to go there. Woodbridge is a better option if you can find something near there.

I never put mine on auto. On or off. Simple Lol..

I tend to get in to a lot of heated discussions about this, not with Muslims, but people who tar me as racist or imply so on the matter. Perhaps I don't understand "Sharia" law. Which i don't of course because I find religion in it's entirety bullshit.
 
But Subway changing 200 branches to Halal Meat (Meaning no breakfast subs due to no pork or ham) is a massive PITA for me. I live in Croydon, it has a broad community of many races & religions, no problem but why should I substitute my breakfast sub with turkey rather than bacon because their law doesn't permit it. 
 
Also Lloyds bank allowing people to open up Muslim bank accounts with no charge for going in to your overdraft. But you are allowed one even if you aren't Muslim. I mean I wouldn't have one out of principle of the name, why do they get preferential treatment over other religions or non-religious people such as myself. They could just ask for no overdraft on their account?
 
I genuinely hope someone is Muslim here to help me understand :S
