Whingebag!

?

Once again, I really don't get your point? My original comment was simply to say that a number of people will, as always, drop out. I know this because I have done it. It was also simply a comment in relation to being finished in time for lunch. Quite why it warranted a personal attack from you I don't know.

And this recent repost of the comment was simply a reminder that this always happens. I will admit however that I also knew it would be laying some bait for you to bite, and predictably you have. I also knew you would pick up on the 50% thing, and I assume your next move is to tell me about how I apparently stated I would never go to another meet.

For someone who I though was actually a decent guy the few times I have met you, your a bit of an idiot on-line, and your attempts to troll me at every opportunity are getting repetitive and tiresome.

Awww, you covered all my bases :) We should go on a date if we keep finishing each others sentences. I'm fairly sure it'd be one of those stormy relationships though because you'd take even the mildest of jibes as if I had murdered your family. The sex would be fantastic though.


My point was more along the lines of why bother to post something negative about an event you have no intention of attending?

I am fully aware there shall be drop outs, but I am also aware and confident there is a good number of people who definetely wish to run and shall make the necessary efforts to be there. I've been on a lot of motor meets, met a lot of you guys and as such there is a trust element.

20 runners will be an extremely good turn out, less will be more managable to too many more will make the day drag on, so as things are going it looks to be just right for the numbers attending. :)

End of the day its a great day and a lot of fun, those who don't come are missing out and we only need 10 or more runners which we have with ease. :)

Gibbo - there was no negativity intended, it was simply a statement about the well known routine that RR's go through, and (at the time) concern over getting to lunch on time :). I'm sorry some people took them the wrong way. Have a good day all.

Oh, one final though, being a PS meet, surely there will be the mandatory 'incident'? :)

I'm going to try my best not to be one of those flaky types but I totally forgot I need my brakes back on by sunday for a memorial MLR meet.

Not sure if i'll get a chance to do so in the week but I'll do my best.

Which was the one where rover416 blew a hole in his boost pipe, and arrived back into the carpark leaning out the window shouting "its got no booooooost!"? And then patched it up with masking tape (of all things) to drive home?

That last one was a RR day, for sure.

So turns out I'm on call this weekend, but no matter, I was at the last PowerStation RR, just sat in the car to take and deal with the call.

I still haven't decided what car to bring yet, haven't had a play in el scooby for a few weeks now...but the novelty of the MINI is still ripe!
