Not seen it about Phil no, but what's that garage in Warsash that does 'sports' cars? I wonder if it could be them.
A few months before we bought ours we test drove one from there the same in every way - it's twin. The registration number was identical except for being 698 instead of 697 as well - spooky.

looks a lovely example I must say.

The garage you are on about is Peter Nash cars. Seems only 5 minutes since its been there but probably quite a few years now.

loved the "crimera" wheels comment

That's the public slipway next to Moody's boat yard. Used it hundreds of times

Sorry, but thats the public slip in Warsash! infront of the Rising Sun. Thats my Marina (Hamble Point) in the back ground. On the second and third Pics down on the left hand side, the main hangers and my office can be seen. And the third one is taken outside the Warsash sailing club dingy compund.

nah, I knew where it was when i first saw it as I grew up in Sarisbury. Often spent time in the rising sun. Although I did in fact launch my boat on the slipway by moodys rather than warsash. When mark started talking about peter nash cars I assumed people knew where the photos were taken seeing as thats about 100 yards up the road.

I spotted an S a few times between Wickham and Botley driven by a geezer with grey hair and a beard, maybe it's that one??

Shnozz, the phrase 'my boat' conjurs up an image of yachts with a crew and bar - if so, maybe you could invite your friends from the Motorshow down for a PH party???

I see that bloke drive through wickham at about 6:20ish each morning. But I think his number plate is different. Keep forgetting it though.

As for shnozz, I think he meant "boat race"

all S owners have beards Rich

Did I tell you about my Noble and yacht... no, I didnt go to the mungo school of bullshit

My boat would have had trouble carrying any more than a couple of those Motorshow Birds jubblies in it to be honest mate. It was a mirror dinghy and only used from going from our house on the sarisbury side of the hamble to the jolly sailor on the other side. We were too young to drive so took the boat instead

whats a few miles between friends

As the bloke from Hamble says, the other pic is taken just at the top of the slipway in front of the sailing club.

Speak to you soon mate. Hope you don't leave the next meet to early, you caused it to piss down with rain just after you left

dont know mate - but the link was a good story about a gas leak at the Lizard Lounge

Just some panic buying going on at the moment. I haven't actually been in to a petrol station to see what state its like at the moment but apparently 10 cars queueing at each station seems the norm. I need to get to Derby for Mr & Mrs Fish's wedding after that I couldnt care less since I am heading over to your weekday neck of the woods on thursday morning
