A beer sounds good to me.

Stories? What stories? Who have you been talking to?

But seriously, sometime next week would be good, just let me know where and when.

Wow! Simon what do you study?? I'll pop into the uni formula student lab tomorrow (Friday) at lunch time. Initially I was doing SAE, but got scared off because i don't know anything, and other people did.

You've inspired me to return!

RE Halls: I'm at Queens Hospital Close. It used to be BCFTCS halls untill this year after Shakleton got "refurbished"!! You know what I mean!

It's up by the Works (I know you know it!!) on broad street, a risky place to put students.

Yeah, I know someone who was in those halls last year. I've been to your bar. It must be first year heaven being so close to Broad Street!

I wouldn't worry about people knowing more than you do. It's the only way you'll learn. They are all really nice people and you'll pick up knowledge as you go along. I'm a 2nd year Electronic Engineer and am learning of our 4th years all the time.

See you at lunchtime.

Do you know a Guy called Luke Ohara (or something like that?). He's second year electrical.

See you in a bit.

I'd forgotten about that photo!


What about next Thursday for the beer? (19th Feb)

Somewhere close to 5 Ways maybe?

I don't know Birmingham at all, so I'll be reliant on you guys to agree a pub.

I've never been down broad street for my sins, so erm...I guess!

Shall I start a new thread to make it a bit more obvious?

PH gear required for ID purposes!

Let's just say that it was a April Fool's joke by Marcus Potts and David Lord. They had a few of them on Dailysportscar.com and apparently this one brought quite a funny reaction from Martin (my team boss and co-driver).

I think I'm only a couple of inches of the deck in the original. Apparently it had people in America chatting about it thinking it was real. Hehe.
