Wow thats quite a number over a 20 year period. Quite a lot of waffling over the years and lots of people met and events attended
BT&P a few
Le Mans
Sunday Service - lots driving
Dirty Dicks lots beer
GF&W - two
Tons of local and national meets attended

Started with a TVR S1 which is how I met Petrol Ted and Pistonheads

Replaced with a BMW 325i touring (that I still have after 18 years)

Owned an Elise S2 111S for three years


Since I joined I have had 9 jobs, 1 house and never married. Never did win one of the cooking challenges in the Food & Drink forum but lots of fun and great people to chat with. I have met some great people over the years and many are still friends to this day. As JAYB said "This is a great little community of ours" long may it continue.

At my posting rate I will get there in 544 years and 6 months... There may be an issue with my cunning plan.

Was going to mention about Cotty's amateur post count, but Eric is embarrassing me.

I cant believe I have been on this for 18 years , still have my S3 that I found after a PistonHeads meet at Virginia Water organised by Petrol Ted !

I think I still have the Piston Head sticker he was handing out on the day .

Congrats and thanks for introducing me to Pistonheads back in 2001 when we both worked for Steve S!
