It looks like it melted.

I love Christmas jumpers! I bought two this year and I've been wearing them to work :-)

Let's see... - Finish the book I've been writing for the past few years - nope, I wrote a completely different one - Be self-employed by the end of year - nope but I'm plotting - Go to more motorsport events - fail - Learn how to wallpaper - I've decided to paint my walls instead - Start taking photos again - I've had a year off and I've almost forgotten how to use my camera - camera came out of hiding so that's a tick! - Visit Briskoda more often; I've been absent for a while so it'd be nice to catch up (even though I've stopped spending money on my car now ) - I've been lurking, I'm probably selling the car next year so more lurking to follow I made a bit of progress. Not much, but a bit.

We should bring the camping trips back next year! Lol

Did it not used to alternate between Edinburgh and Glasgow/Killie? Surely something something like that would be fairer? I'm not saying I can make it this month but I will get to a meet before next March!

My heating's been on over the weekend. Very early for me but I have a cold, that's my excuse.

My local fish n chip shop (which is amazing) sells them and I've been meanihg to try one for ages. I am going to take the plunge very soon.

Good choice of replacement - from what I've heard they're great fun. Enjoy it

I can't make it this month; I'll be on holiday

That's very good!

Yellow Furbys are the best!

Nope it's a yellow one - says KAY on the numberplate. I'm in town most weekends, I've been looking out for a green Fabia but not seen you yet

It's funny you should say that, my OH is in Linlithgow and he's never been either On the other hand I've been about 5 times, I love it there! Have a good meet, I'll make the next one ... maybe ....

I've driven 2 autos. The first was a Nissan Navara. I actually found it quite worrying, especially when I was driving offroad and wanted to keep a slow pace going downhill and it kept changing up a gear, meaning I had to try and slow with the brakes, which got interesting on muddy ground. Why you would have an automatic 4x4 I will never know. On roads it always sounded like it was in the wrong gear and I'm sure I drove everywhere cringing. The other was a 911 Carrera S (PDK). That made a lot more sense, plus as it's semi-automatic you can drive it manually if you want.

niceyellow vrs - I can't quote your post for some reason but I was going to answer with No, you weren't. I just watched it this morning. I thought the opening sequence with the industrial revolution was brilliant, but after that it just went a bit odd. I thought the house party bit was just noisy and chaotic and I lost interest. In general I thought the choice of music was awful. I'm glad I didn't stay in and watch it. The lighting of the torches was pretty awesome though. Definitely the best bit. I am glad I am in the minority here though, it seems to have gone down well which is good.

:DIn mine it says 'Save the planet - wash at 30 ... Care instructions: do not wash

Benja - I really like your car

Looks like a good event! An interesting range of cars too - the Moggy looks brilliant!

Not this month :(

Yes. When my first car was sold (1.1 Metro) I wasn't there to see it go (I was working up north and my dad sorted it all out for me) I actually walked round in a sulk for a good few hours before finding a posh hotel and buying myself a 3-course meal with wine to cheer myself up. 8 years on I still miss him :( I even got upset when I swapped my 2nd car, even though she caused me alot of misery. The Fabia's the best car I've owned, I'll be changing it within the next year and I've a feeling I'll be a bit tearful when she goes. I'm trying to talk myself out of getting a Z4 next ...

Well done

Glad you're happy with your new town! I used to live just down the road from you (Northallerton) and use to go up to Darlo regularly. It's a nice little town

England did much better than I thought they would. I quite enjoyed watching that, not for the football but more for the fact that while I watched it my OH (who is Scottish and wasn't interested) cooked my tea, washed the dishes, made my packed lunch for work and cleaned the kitchen while I sat and watched it

Looks like I missed another good meet!

Like I said in the other thread I'm still a maybe ... my OH has the weekend off work so will have to check what he wants to do.
