Re: Star Inn, Newbury - Friday 28th September

perhaps they just need re adjusting, somehow. felt normal lights were brighter and lit up more road than the xenons, the fogs were brighter on side lights when i got off the A34 than with xenons on.

I suspect the fogs are not brighter but because the fog light is more yellow than the Xenon it seems brighter cause you can see it better on the road.

Re: Star Inn, Newbury - Friday 28th September

i dont normally bother with fogs as they are pretty much useless (an option i wasnt bothered about if this car had or not when i ordered it). but i was under the impression that that xenons were better than what i was getting last night... they did light up the road signs well thru...

Re: Star Inn, Newbury - Friday 28th September

So what happened with the 'other' intimate picture then - I'm sure I saw a tongue extended from Will's mouth towards his 'victim'

Missed the opportunity to 'spoon' that waitress as well, gonna have to train you up a bit

True, but this is a family forum.

Re: Star Inn, Newbury - Friday 28th September

That's *never* stopped anyone from hinting at it at the very least though

I was sat opposite Hedge for a bit, then next to him for a bit, and from where you were sat in that picture, towards the bar area

True, but like I said, this is a family forum. Besides, I wasn't about to follow them into the toilets
