The question is have you managed to "pull" with it yet


No! I only go out in the dark, with a balaclava on.
That can only help increase your chances of pulling

NCS: Any chance of forwarning the manager that a load of internet geeks will be descending on their premises?


For the record, his name is Heinz, he is South African and has an exhibition of South African art on upstairs at the moment... which is actually quite good.

Oh, and here's the best bit... last Sunday, he was made to wear an England rugby shirt all day on account of the sound thrashing that we gave the Boks the previous day.


ps. I'm bound to be in there again before the 11th, so will mention it too.

We are booked in for the 11th December at The Woodman, Ide Hill, for lunchtime.

A few of us popped in there today & booked up - there were a couple of Ferraris in the car park - anyone here?

See you all there

Hi all,

Only live locally, so will pop along for a pint and a chat.
Am I allowed to bring my Cerbera with its Rover engine, after all I don't want to upset any TVR purists.

I would like to see it (after hearing how much it costs to service the original one - and how often you have to do it)!
With the chances of parts becoming more of a problem in the future, I expect a few people may go down this route. Just bring some dark glasses (just in case).

Last time we had about 30ish cars - go back a couple of pages & you'll see the photos.

I will be working untill midday but should be there shortly after 1.00 - hopefully with several other TVR's

It'd be excellent to see it, what with the LS1 conversions being mentioned everywhere at the moment too.

How easy was it to fit, as everyone seems seems to think the V angle was too much to let it fit in?

See you Saturday

A few of the Fchat guys were giving a trip out to a Terminally ill person that day and it finished at the Woodman - so these were probably the cars you saw.

Nice touch - if you ever need any help on that front please drop me a line. I'd be happy to get a few of our lot together.

Any of you coming on Saturday?

Tony posting on Lady T,s moniker

How many going now? as I still have control of M'Lady's motor and would love to rub it in by coming along. She doesn't get back till 8pm so she will never know. Are the usual villains turning up Nick?
