Hi all

I've jusrt returned from the UK, which is a most spectacular place to
visit. Amazingly warm people, lovely roads & places, beautiful scenery,
quaint buildings and really hopeless cellphone providers...

Many, many thanks to Paul, Iain and Gretchen for spending the day with a
few South African freaks - it was truly a memorable day for my girlfriend
Nicky and myself. And thanks especially for travelling so far and working
around my hopeless planning ;)

Despite a few people bailing out at a late stage and shocking traffic into
Oxford, we managed to get everyone together and at a pub still serving
food at around 14:30. Paul, Gretchen and Iain were terribly accomodating,
despite my putrid planning, and were every bit as friendly and nice as I
had imagined.

Having met at the predetermined place, we proceded to a pub that is linked
to the University, with Iain taking Nicky and Paul me. Unfortunately they
had just stopped serving food when we arrived. Paul spotted a pub still
serving food while on his way back with Gretchen so we hastily gulped our
drinks down and made our way to the Red Lion pub. With barely minutes
left to order food (at 14:30 on a Saturday afternoon), we hastily made or
choices and sat outside to enjoy the sunny weather and the foods & drink.
A great day all round I'd say.

Iain mate, is the car ok?

Hope to see you all again very soon.

Thanks again everyone!

Ciao

Zak

Bloody hell! Dunno - I'd clean forgotten about it!!!

(for those that wern't there we went down a country lane that had a very
nasty dip in the road & although I slowed down a lot I banged the underside
of the car - AGAIN  at about 35-40mph (its a pub run thing I think!))

Its been sat in the garage ever since. That said it seemed to be fine on the
way home & got me here in fairly short order!

Hello all.

Maxine and I are sorry not to have made it to Pub Run/Dash/Crawl 7. Sound
like you had some fun up there in the home counties. Zak, I have some
sympathy for you sharing a ride with Paul. It must have seemed like an
eternity willing him to put his foot down so that you could make it in time
for last orders

>I banged the underside of the car - AGAIN  at about 35-40mph (its a pub run

I  tend to get tagget by speed humps. F***ing annoying. Unfortunately I have
banged the top side of my car. ?5000 worth of damage. Only going about 5mph.
My fault.  Still, It will be back together soon. I hope before PR8.

> Its been sat in the garage ever since.

I'm getting itchy. The Mazda just doesn't do it for me. What is worse is
that I am now searching for an estate, still more room for the dogs. Perhaps
a BMW.

> That said it seemed to be fine on the way home & got me here in fairly

Good man!

Cheers

Rue

p.s. Joe, d'you get the bike?

Mikal,

you are being an arse again!

Now do please bugger off before you tempt the"Red Avenger" & the "Black
Volvo" into coming round to the land of Kevin & Sharon & inserting a very
long radio arial where the sun doesn't shine before tearing you limb from
limb!

Feel free to f.ck right off mate. I note you don't have the guts to post
under your real name or email address either. Come on - let's see who
this pathetic soul is who is so emboldened hiding being some perception
of anonymity.

Step up and show yourself, gormless worm.

Zak,

relax, its just Mikal being an arse as usual. He'll post some bollox for a
week or three and then bugger off again soon enough when he get's bored (or
as soon as the "Red Avenger" catches up with him finally, as he surely
will!)

Spotting him is a bit like shooting fish in a barrel these days really.

Heh. No problem, I'm just short of tolerance for w.nkers today.

*raises hand*

Ummm, what's "gormless" mean?

No doubt.  A gorm could be the key to unrivaled riches (and maybe the keys
to  a 288 GTO).  Being gormless could be the equivalent of being incredibly
stupid also - and none of us is that.

Yes, you, at the back... what is it?

Lacking intelligence and vitality; dull.

Possibly...

Anyway I get -1 for style since "gaumless wyrm" woulda looked better :/

Oh yeah, Mikal/Gerald/Adolf is back.  Good too, you worthless bit of worm
food - I am about as ready to beat somebody's head in, verbally or
otherwisel, as I have ever been.  Too bad you don't have a penny to your
useless name and can't get to America - it would be worth it to meet you
somewhere and kill you once and for all.

Or should we just go ahead and "out" you, every time you show up?

You're like the common cold.  I wonder how many other groups you infect.
