OK, if we're actually playing this for real, I was at White Sh!te Lane in 2004 when we won the league. The police were very kind, they kept us locked in for an hour while the Spuds went to tool themselves up with empty beer bottles. The walk back to civilisation (Islington) was probably some people's definition of exciting, I can tell you.

I have done a couple of “laps of the paddock”. The owner is a buddy that competes in the Tourenwagen Classics (uses a pro driver, Stefan), I am one of the sponsors. The owner also has a Ferrari service center in Bavaria with some pretty awesome cars.Originally posted by WTFH View Post
8 times a year we get together drink beer, and then go and race cars the day after - supporting the DTM.
Both Alfas are fantastic. The Q is something else. I can’t match my lap times in the M3 with it, but there are many who can.
Will PM you some photos of the vehicle, team and of course the insane parties hosted by the crazy Dutch AMG guys. Oh and the girls. Bunch of Divas.

Well my outdoor basil plant lasted three years, through frost and snow, although in quite a sheltered spot.Originally posted by The Castle Cary Fairy View PostI don't see basil lasting through the winter - it's not very hardy is it?
I think it was more the incessant damp weather we've had last year and this which did for it in the end.
But actually, parts of it are still hanging on. So who knows, maybe it will recover.

The last time I was excited was last weekend when I went a convention for the TV show Supernatural and I got to meet the actors etc.

It's either mould or some horrid grubs munching away at the roots.

What about this?I actually quite like these and it seems that Alfa have built a nice car although I have read reports that the interior is little bit cheap and tacky but should improve. However, the difference between clearedforlanding (and myself) is that you can only get up to 2nd gear and you're probably breaking the law whereas we can go all the way redlining up to 7th or 8thOriginally posted by WTFH View PostOf course, he also gets to drive The Toy...
