Wasn't just me that got home and promptly went back to sleep for 3 hours then...

I'm going to bed shortly Just watched the start of the GP that I managed to miss first thing this morning (what a berk!). Struggled to keep my eyes open after enjoying lunch at the pub on top of this mornings exertions

Thought the breaky was good (mine was huge!). Place was freezing though. Good craic watching Button triumph with everyone

Frazer - I had no idea your bumper was that bad! What with the excitement just before the cafe and GP on as soon as we got there I never even saw your car or spoke to you. Tough break that mate.

Yay, I have a bumper thanks to one of the HSV/Holden PH guys

It's primed, but still needs paint.

Just got to find time to collect it from Andover sometime this week...

fraser YHM....... if the bumper is in Andover I can recommend a good Andover paint shop if you like, you could get the current owner to drop it in there and you pick it up from the paintshop all done and ready to bolt on?

Cheers Chris. Just home, and haven't picked up my mail yet. Hoping to get a close workshop as I want the rear wing and door handle touched up at the same time. Can you send me the details for the Andover workshop anyway, in case I don't get any closer recommendations.

Thanks everyone for the kind words.

These things happen, and it's the first piece of bad luck I have had on the roads for 18 years! (since a drunk driver t-boned my car from a side street ).

Sorry I missed it folks, the catching up with some old friends last night turned into a bit of a beer, gin, chapagne, wine, tequila type night and if I'd been near plod this morning it wouldn't have been a good idea!

Hope the car is easy to Sort Fraser, also did you get a friend request on facebook from a random girl on Friday?

Got some pics to load up, did we ever workout who Chri55y is?

[Stuart J]

Breakfast was huge & great value although the room was freezing, needs a tadge more heat. It certainly put the girls off going back which is a shame but I will work on it.

Fraser, if you get stuck for a bodyshop I have a friend who runs one near Eastleigh if its not too far. Hes just spent the last couple of days rebuilding the front of mine after a high speed encounter with a pheasant, it must be the season for roadkill.

mail me on [e-mail] if you want details

I'll email you the details tonight

sent..YHM

Cheers Chris. Haven't had any closer to home suggestions yet. I think I'll give them a call and when I collect the bumper I can call in and see them. I need to go down anyway to hand over the cash

Same place for the next GP? or somewhere else for the next GP?

sounds good to me,breakfast was very good (they do it ALL DAY too)...i'll go with the flow though

[VerySideways]

That place isn't usually open on a Sunday though so if we want to go there someone needs to call and ask...

he said he'd gladly open it for us just have to ring him and let him know

[angryS3owner]

Anywhere else, wonder if the Ace shows the GP, that said I'd probably bloody miss it again anyway

BBC1 coverage starts at 9am, we could have a decent hoon first (deer optional) and then settle in for a lazy breakfast...

sounds a much more reasonable time.

[VerySideways]

I can put together a minihoon (an hour or so) or we can re-use the itn i created for April 27th last year, which is around 90 miles...

What's the concensus?
