Karting Event FINAL UPDATE - inc Preview VIDEO..1 Space Left

[independentphoto]

All those taking part in the karting event please note....................

..........Deposits will need to be paid real soon (by Quedos) and it would be helpful if as many as possible could cough up in advance. This would avoid her being out-of-pocket by too much, since I know she's still to buy my Chrissy pressie - todays expedition yielded nowt for me!

Please check the main Karting thread for payment details.

Thanks,
Garry :wink:

£14 Deposit signed, sealed and delivered (I hope, lol) :)

[scooby2102]

sorted :D

[Quedos]

oky the Karting is booked. Garry and I went this afternoon to suss it out. Looks like we will have a great night.

If you wish by paypal you can but I would prefer to get the money on the night - it keeps me straight then. I'm easily confused :smurfin:

Ay right..... you mean that you'd rather not lose 4% in fees to PayPal.....

.........Good point really.



Anyway folks I recorded a little clip of the action when we visited to pay the deposit....just be warned that it was recorded on my mobile!.....

that looks minted gaz, cannae wait now

[Tiger 55]

So do you want the deposit via paypal and the balance in cash or the whole thing in cash on the night? Or some other option?

:?

:?

The whole thing in cash on the night. (14 to me 14 to the centre) If you want to transfer funds you can pm me.

[Tiger 55]

OK, I've had a good long talk with myself and I'm going to drop out. Sorry.

I never had more than a 50/50 chance of making it but I thought Bugger it, count me in. on the basis that if I didn't manage on the night then I'd just lost my deposit, no biggie. Now it's full or even over subscribed though that suddenly seems pretty selfish. If I don't go and someone else is missing out (even Kilted's brother :wink: ) then no fair.

Sorry if it causes you any grief Quedos, let me know if I owe you anything. Happy to pay the deposit or full whack or whatever you need to not be out of pocket.

Oh, and I'm also rabidly, obnoxiously competetive and would probably have spoiled it for everyone anyway :evil:

[Duck-man]

Hey all,


Sorry I haven't been posting in ages! Work has been getting the way of my forum time! :O how dare it! hahah!!

Quedos if its cool with you can i give you the cash on the night? (Oh by the way thanks for organising all of this! :D )



If thats ok Quedos if not PM ur address and i will send you a wee cheque to cover ur costs :D

Cant wait its gonna be ace!!



:twisted:

[independentphoto]

Tiger55............



..........What a way to go. That's fair play to you for talking to yourself before hand and getting it all sorted out. I hope you and yourself are still talking :lol:


Well, one down and one up. Welcome back little brother kilted!

Ducky- we'll bring that riders seat with us- oh and don't worry about your little legs - the kart pedals have got removable jack-ups. :wink:

Cheers,

[stuartyboy]

Q - I can paypal it but I'll spare you the 4% and fire it over on the Friday.

[on yer bike]

Indi/Quedos if its easier for u (and cheaper) just refund my deposit: marius at ukhome dot net
(refunds dont cost anything with paypal as far as I know by using the Refund Payment link on the Transaction Details) and I'll pay it on the night.

[Kilted Ginger]

My brother wont be going, so there's a spare place, he wont be home until January now and not december, Now i've got to go to my boss cap in hand and try and reorganise my holidays i'd taken off to spend time with him :evil: , and change my car insurance again so he can drive it, they'd better not charge me admin costs again :x !!
He's got to fly back here to go to the american embassy in london to update his visa to go back to the us and cant get an appointment until jan, bloody beaurocrats.

[Quedos]

Come on Tiger 55 You know you want to come!!!!!

Kilted's little bro aint gonna make it so come and let your hair down.

AAAHHH! technology - I leave that tto Garry!

[-Ralph-]

Thought I'd best post to confirm that I am still coming and I'll settle the bill on the night.

[Prawn]

Also confirm I am coming and have transfered deposit into your account Quedos.

I may have a friend that's up for it. I'm thinking of bringing her along this Sat for those who are going to Xmas **** up! BMW 650 rider but she's ok :wink: I this allowed??

[Tiger 55]

Come on Tiger 55 You know you want to come!!!!!



I do want to come! I am mad for it but I just can't be sure I'd make it. For giggles I looked at my last 10 Friday clocking off times and I could've gotten to Livvy by 7.15 on 5 occasions at best. Traffic permitting...

No, leave me, save yourselves!!!

Prawn's BMW mate can have 'my' slot. :)

:(

Dinae worry grant! if everyone done it i would be out about a tenner - you can buy me drink instead :drink:

[Kilted Ginger]

I'm taking the car, (from denny) and picking ralph (bathgateish) up on the way, 2 more seats if anyone's wanting picked up. Preferably not someone from north berwick :roll:

Spoke to Ralph tonight and probably go for a couple of beers after ,somewhere local, all welcome, i'll be on the irn bru anyway unless we come back to a pub in denny (which i wouldnt recommend).

[Kilted Ginger]

Ralphs now going straight from work so theres 3 seats if anyone needs a lift.

[northwind]

If anyone's driving through fromEdinburgh and has a spare seat, it'd be much appreciated ;) Alternatively, if anyone else is riding, might be a good idea to meet up here first then go through, it's so much more fun getting lost in company...

[Duck-man]

Hey northy,

I am riding through to livi on friday if you wanna meet somewhere??

cheers

duckman

[jimmy4237]

It's real easy to find. It's in the lower end of Deans Industrial Esate, not the top end you can see if you're on the motorway.

[northwind]

Nice one, (American accent on) looks we got us a convoy :)

[Tiger 55]

OK, Jimmy - you be the Rubber Duck, Northy - you'll have to be Pig Pen. Me? I'm gonna be one of the long haired friends of Jesus. Lovin it.

10-4!

[Duck-man]

Northwind,

Wheres the best place to meet??

I will be walking to work (west end) then going home to get the bike and was planning on taking the

A8/A89 (Recommended Route)
1. Pass Edinburgh Airport and go straight over at Newbridge roundabout onto the A8/A89.
2. Go straight over all the crossroads and roundabouts (there are a few...!)
3. Pass Bangor Hospital and turn left at the next roundabout after the petrol station
4. Follow the brown 'RACING KARTS' signs


It doesnt seem very difficult to find (famous last words! haha)

wheres good for you?

10-4!

[Quedos]

There's a spare seat if anyone else wants to appear and pay on the night!!!

We have had a drop out - due to illness so lets fill this seat - anyone welcome!

Mercy's sakes alive!

Rubber Duck Man, sounds sensible enough to me. Maybury service station (big Shell one) is probably the best spot then, it's right at the end of the A8. It's at 318110,672800 if you want to Streetmap it.

[Duck-man]

Northwind,

Cool I know where Maybury services are :D

Time wise?? Need to be at Karting place at about 7ish (715 to be precise) so meet you at Maybury at 1815??

Cheer

Duck-man

[northwind]

Yep, sounds fine to me.

Excuses excuses :roll: I've been floored with bronchitis all week but I'll still be going. Don't know how good I'll be on the night due to excessive fits of feckin coffing.

I'll ask around...

[stuartyboy]

Forgot....

Are we going drinking afterwards anywhere?

[Quedos]

I've not organised as we weren't too sure who would go -

orgnaise it on the night! :wink:

[on yer bike]

For those going in cages :driving:, could I possibly steal a lift to Livingston centre after the karting? only if you're heading that way though.

Not the person in questions illness, but their offspring and there's other details not to be posted here. We understand 'cos we're nice like that.

I'm asking around at the minute too, but it's a bit short notice.

Cheers,

Garry

[jimmy4237]

If I can get there first (ie - drive like f*** from Wishaw), then I'll take the last place and settle up on the night. If Prawn's mate get's there first before me, then fair enough. I'll be happy enough being cameradude if I'm too late from work...

Just drive carefully and be sensible you ain't on the bike now!

[Prawn]

Forgot....

Pil and Prawn are going drinkin drinkin afterwards, Pil's just moved to Livi so not sure of what's a hot spot and whats not!!

[stuartyboy]

Guys - sorry to let the team down at such late notice but I have no way of getting there
See lift needed post

Quedos - I'll fire some dosh in via paypal and add extra to cover charges.

If Jimmy425687353639 gets there early enough he can have my slot.

[suicidesam]

[northwind]
