Yes I can hear them too

I forgot you were taking your Boxster with you this time. That's nice for you Is it "hood down" weather?

You've not missed much really.

Just come back in from my run, and improved my time again. (Oh I'm such a showoff )

If it's not raining, it's compulsary to have the roof down isn't it?

Sunny Scotland is just that. So I did even better in my run..........the full distance as it is so hot!!

Even the poor dog was panting on the run this morning

No .....our Country Manor grounds are much bigger than that..( in my dreams)

I wish I was close by with a camera if you got your feather duster out Not a bad idea though is it?

Your Boxster was probably safer ( no tree sap ) back at home

I'll give you a laugh. I was in Pizza Hut last night, at the takeaway bit and had my Boxster Register PCGB T-shirt on. A guy waiting commented on the T-shirt and the car. I felt really good, (well I love my car) so left Pizza hut, started up the car, went to pull away and then stalled

I did see the funny side though!

Jane


(there's no smiles legened on here where the one slaps the other on the head.....you get two of them here..... move on nothing to see please keep cameras in bags)

The 's' is back to normal (with an even bigger shiney coat on now, tree sap all gone with ease no feather duster, pinny or anything else required either (don't stop to capture that vision read on)...!!

jane, jane, jane...... you drove in looking the part, your t-shirt made you look the part..... but unfortunately you left looking like you'd borrowed your hubby's car for the first time....!!!

(but your not alone i did it at some traffic lights at the weekend....... nobody there though so it doesn't count )

I did have a picture in my head and suddenly you took it away!

Glad to hear that the tree sap has all gone and your lovely boxster is shiney again. Not even a pinny or feather duster either. I'm so impressed!!

I know, I must have looked a right pratt driving away and stalling it. It's about the third time I've stalled now. I find you have to "rev" a wee bit harder to pull away. Do you find that? I was pulling out of a junction a few months ago now, hood down, shades on, when I stalled it. These teenagers were walking past and all I heard them say was " yes but she can't drive it""

As long as that picture has completely gone now, god i'm getting visions myself and it aint pretty

As for pulling off at junctions......nah it's just you... or try taking the handbrake off
it can catch you out at times but i've been fortunate nobody's caught me...!!

Especailly a group of teenagers..!:driving:
soon you won't be able to go anywhere without people pointing....!!!

Yep that picture has completely gone now, thank goodness

Take the handbrake off? I knew I was doing something wrong

Just come back in from my run, and took another minute off my time. Phew! My problem is I push and push myself, to try and beat my time, which probably isn't a good thing.

I'll try and stick to this time now, and not improve on it, but to be honest, I don't think that I could anyway.

Watch where you are today for sappy trees

If it's any consolation Muscles, the weather isn't great in Bonny Scotland either!

Hey what a great idea you have. Soon (shouldn't say soon) I will meet myself coming back, and not need to go out at all. :thumbsup:

Stan is showing his old merc on Sunday at a vintage/classic car show, so I hope that the weather stays good for that. Unfortunately, as usual, he's working, so I have the pleasure of sitting with it!

By the way, if anyone else is here they can join in the conversation too

Enjoy the :drnik:

Hard life eh?

Oh dear poor you

It's sunny here just now, but there are black clouds around, so I'm about to go on my daily grind of a run before it starts!

At least it's friday, are you off home this weekend?

How is the car this morning? Any tree sap?

Sorry I'm laughing out loud here at you stalling!

Watch out it's catching!!

It's hot here this morning and not p1shing down like it is there.

I really enjoyed my run, and for the first time this morning, felt like I could have run further. I did it in the same time, which I'm quite happy with, so I don't suppose I'll ever meet myself coming back again

So you are off out tonight for or two!

Hope that the head isn't too sore tomorrow.

Enjoy your beer: beer:

Me............I'm abstaining just now while I'm training. (believe that and you'll believe anything)

[picking myself off the floor after reading your statement of abstaining from alcohol]

I'm just off up the road tonight to the Argentinian steak house, and i'll be chomping my way through a 400g fillet with a bottle of red and a selection of vegetables (might need rolling back down the hill though after all that)
