Too right Jaffa, regards people initially putting their names down months in advance and then bailing out whenever they feel like it. People should put their money where their mouth is and pay up at least a sizeable non refundable amount to secure their place, end of. I think it's the fact that the hotel never took or asked for a deposit that some people see fit to not bother going and not say anything.
The reason i book my own ferry crossing and last time booked my own double room

I wouldn't advise filling up with petrol as well with your car
Lol good point Dale.
I fell asleep so late last night, I'm too excited
traffic is bad man, on the way to shoppers place at the mo, ians driving the slag so im on the laptop, aiiiiii. london masive whos doing what this eve? was talking to martin and he said if hes back early hes in for a ruby??
Still at work
Ill leave in a minute though. Dont look nice outside. Hope it dont chuck down with rain there. Where abouts is it bad? M20? or not that close yet.
m25 was proper bad, m20 is slow but 40mph ish
Just hope it clears up by the time I leave. See you down there around 10ish.
i might be dead by 10 lol, proper knackerd and i only drove the first 10miles of the 177 lol
Jaff, if that pop was at me for now not making Oulton Park trackday, and not turning upto ND in the jap taxi, there's 2 genuine reasons why that's the case. However, I've given plenty of notice that I won't be at Oulton, and I still turned up at ND regardless.
The difference is, both of those actions hadn't/hasn't left anyone out of pocket.
Anyway, what's done is done now, so we'll leave it there.
Have a safe trip people
Just incase anyone fancies looking out for the tribe today...Text em and tell them to give us a wave!!

Hi peeps, I arrived at 11pm yesterday but absolutely shattered. Had a really good weekend away, as always a pleasure to hook up with the regular crew.
Did 3 laps and on the 3rd i lost braking doing 110mph into the series of corners after the 1st bridge and start/finish line. metal grinding noises on the way back to the hotel so i'm driving gingerly. Bought new rear brake pads on the Monday in Adenau, took the passenger wheel off and bosh! The inner pad had fallen out and the piston was hitting the disc everytime i applied the brake.
Big thanks to Bruce for doing the brakes, managed to get home ok but i'll be needing new discs. Deffo thinking 4 pots.
Great weekend, shattered like all, early night and work in morning. Car made it there and back with some nice wiring for the fan
Need to load up some pics got 65 in total, never really take any.
Got to say thats the dodgiest pub ive been to for ages. And those shots were awful.
Anyway found a pic of shoppers driving round

SMILE Charlotte!!

Just got back myself, shattered .......done 977 miles in total, the only c1j there...didnt miss a beat
Great trip, great food and company
Im so gutted about the trip
The MR2 is being broken/sold and I am buying a either a BMW740 Sport or a 540 at the end of the month.
Fancy a big V8 and a bit of comfort
Next time I will make it all the way.
540's the way to go i think M8! 740's a bit of a lard barge!Im so gutted about the trip

The M8 was never put into production, so I don't know where ginge is going to get one of those from

Hmmm, I must say, I can't see Tom in one of those. He'd be more at home in a Datsun Cherry I think
Here is your WINNER!Hmmm, I must say, I can't see Tom in one of those. He'd be more at home in a Datsun Cherry I think
Now that's what i'm talking about! It's the facelift model as wellHere is your WINNER!
did minty/dawn make it back ok?
They made it back to Dover and got an early ET across, dont know about the other side though
Aye all good ta Adey, back about 9ish last night in convoy with Kris and Scotty. We managed to get a slightly earlier 5:35 train and it happened to port in about the same time as Kris' ferry so we hooked up in Ashford Tescos and off we pootled.
Awesome weekend peeps, massive thank you to sexy Chris Smith for arranging it for us, I can't wait to go back again. Paul said he'll upload the pics/videos later on, some of them are hysterical
Had a nice play with a 300bhp Golf GTi on the way home, he followed us into Reading services simply to ask how a 1.4 GT Turbo whooped him lol?!
Gonna feel gutted going back to work tomorrow
