PH pub meet - 2nd Monday each month

[burriana]

now these conversations usually go something like this... and usually in a bar... and usually by some random girl of below average intelligence:

"oooh you're brown. Do you use a sunbed?"
"Thanks, no"
"yeah you do"
"No, really, I haven't used a sunbed for about 15 years"
"You must have - how are you so brown"
"I spend a bit of time in Spain"
"well when was the last time you were there then, I bet you do use a sunbed"
...
...
"which syllable of No is confusing you?"

Swiftly followed by an escape to the bar!

[burriana]

Not heard him called that before, many other things but that's definitely a new one!

If it becomes a regular drag strip the Feds will pretty soon take notice.

[burriana]

Let's just show a modicum of sense. It's a pub meet after all, not a Max Power cruise.

I'm sure that missing the turn off once is understandable though

[burriana]

Only twice, and you lifted off if I remember rightly!

And there was only one car!!!!

talkwrench said:

Remind me, Al... what does 8000rpm in 3rd & 4th equate to in a 348?

Blown engine mate ... it redlines at seven an half!

(The only advantage of the 355 I can think of, that extra thousand revs).

But as you asked, 7200 revs in 4th was about 140

I have 8200 rpm with around 395 - 405 BHP. Rolling road it weeks back. Can I have a go on the flyby ??? Pleasein the 348 !!!

As long as you promise not to hit anything this time Justin!


Glad to see the engine rebuild seems to have been worthwhile ... good figures

[burriana]

Blimey, this is turning out to be quite a gathering

Warren, if the weather is good and you fancy going out to the East Coast, Hornsea is a nice little resort if the tide is out, or you have Filey and Flamborough Head further up, then you are welcome to call in on your way back to the meet, we are literally 5 mins off the M62 (45 mins from coast). However, if Mrs BG prefers shops and restaurants then Leeds is your place (or York even?)

To be honest, you're welcome to call in anyway if you're in this neck of the woods - we might even go to the seaside ourselves if the weather's good

If it's ok to come along on the bike, I'll try make it to the meet for a drool at some nice machinery. I'll try and add to the noise factor.

You haven't lent your brother the car again have you Marcus?

[burriana]

Be good to see you again Steve ... did you manage to find a new home for the Pantera?

panterasteve said:

are we ok to post a link for ferrari cs club for northern members.hows your car ,out of winter hibernation yet?

I should think so, although I would think that most of us know about it.

You should know by now that my cars don't do winter hibernation!

Sorely missing the 911 at the moment. It will remain to be seen when the Griff comes back from its service whether it has improved or not.

[burriana]

Just a little bump as it is this weekend.

Don't keep us in suspense then Mark ... do tell?

[burriana]

Be nice to see you Marcus.

I will probably be there a bit earlier than 6 - maybe 5, half 5 ish to make the most of the nice evening, as I'll have to shoot off about 8-ish.

Al: you're not going to believe this, but my memory card has gone stupid and cocked up your departure....bloody shame too

Why? Did I do something worth recording?

[burriana]

Now that's pretty impressive ... a camera phone with a bleedin fish-eye lens!

(and ever so slightly embarrased to park it next to a 430 Spyder and a pair of Lambos!)

That will be a 360 Spider, but I'm sure Rich will be quite pleased to have about £60k added to the value of his car

Still no bike pics..........

No ... but an awful lot of duplicated pics chaps!

Nice though they are, it makes the pages impossible to open for the poor buggers with slow connections.

[burriana]

I'm on broadband here and it took about 4 minutes or more to open that one page!
