| SWMBO is starting to panic a bit. She's worried that she'll be the only female on the drive tomorrow - please tell me there are more lady folk going so I can cheer her up.

| Could be.... I'm sure she'll be able to handle herself OK though. We just need the occaisonal slap. I imagine the usual conversations may be somewhat gentler given the presence of the opposite sex. ( or perhaps she can just join in? )

| Bring them all along Faye. It'll be worth it to see the look on their faces. ![]() Looking forward to it now. It's amazing how noisy the inside of my car is now since my little incident. Good for driving involvement though.

| I'll second that. Those roads are just awesome. Jon had loads of fun (please correct me if I'm wrong!) with knobbly tyres. I don't think I could say I've ever experienced more "extreme" emotions / feelings when driving than today. SWMBO even enjoyed it although I'll never forget the "noooooooo!" coming from her seat as soon as an observant motorist holding us up moved over to let us fly by Deffo wants to do it in nicer weather where she can actually see where we're going ![]() Lets just keep quiet about the event at the end of the day for the time being ![]() I had an interesting fuel thing, but will post about that seperately... Many thanks again Colin.

| I'd like to add my thanks to Colin as well - it was a great day out, even if the car did get a wee bit dirty ![]() It was reassuring to know that the car could more or less keep up with some more exotic machinery - even if the others weren't really trying - and I could annoy the occasional Volvo driver as well.

| Great day out was had :thumb: quite a good turnout considering the weather which varied from crap to dredful. the roads were amazing fun.. was nice to suprise any unbelivers to the Fabia vRS (standard) performance. The I_CANT_NAVIGATE_FOR_TOFFEE award goes to Ffelan and Ian for needing to turn round about 6 times during the course of the day and also for getting me into a bit of trouble with a off duty plod-officer. Thanks to Everyone involved, especially ColinD who organised it all, just to show off his monster WRC Octy and Everyone who lead groups. It was a enjoyable day except for the minor incedent near the end, and will definately be at the next one ![]() |
