Default Re: RAF Northolt Airfield Drving Day

I intend to attend this, if only to give you guys a mobile object to ride around , I might not be able to do much in the corners given the curiser I'm riding and the knee thing, but at least I can Drag the T'bird on the straight bit (be just like a newbie then ), I will expect everyone to pass me at some point and feel free to "extract the Micheal" should anyone fail to.


Cheers Mark.

I just called them and there are still spaces available - though they did ask for me to send my form off today - which I am about to do.

Which group are people putting themselves in for - novice?

I called them today as well but the chap said to bring the form and the dosh on the day along with photo ID. I did offer to post it but he thought I meant internal mail> when I said I didn't work there he said to leave it til saturday. He sounded suspiciously like FG1 tho - even had the same sort of humour, cos when I said |I was a friend of Tony's he said there were no more places left.

He didn't even ask which group I wanted to be in so the day can't be very busy, I glad to say

I'm scared and excited now in equal measure!

I think someone needs to change their location

Chris I'm trying to rope er indoors in to take a few snapps. Believe it or not the main man isn't even riding! (Some excuse about looking after kids but I think he doesn't want to risk the chance of binning it in front of his workmates . You know what they say though: "bin it to win it")

No worries about the photo's peeps Mark will be "trusting" me with his camera. I cannot promise to be anything remotely like Samnooshka but I sure as hell can point and click at moving objects.

Ah, now there's an idea. Always something gets left behind in the move.
