OK then.............here we go!!!!!
Having probs telling my comp to talk to my camera at mo - so picks will arrive when 'A' can see 'B' - LOL.
Woke 4:45am Sunday 9th April - 4 1/2 hours sleep - lovely.
Super drive to Brooklands - 'Bonnie' satnav lady told me, in confidence, 2 2/3 hours to eta. Did it, taking it easy, in 2 1/2 hours - take note please Red Leader!!!
Brooklands was very quiet and empty when I arrived - first F in the place.
Cleaned Cassie in the paddock and 20 mins later Emma, Adrian and Tony arrived.
Set up and wrestled with the wind, the Gaz...eeee....booooo and the flags - ;D
Weather was superb, considering wot it's been like a couple of days previous. Turnout was superb as well - far too many F's to count - well, not without taking me shoes and socks off anyways - LOL.
Test hill was fun - Adrian was like a big kid after 3, or was it 4 successful attempts at the hill. I think there's a slim chance he might have stopped grinning by about next Tuesday - that's 1 to cross off his: 'list of things to do before he dies'
Overall, the day was hugely successful - apart from the slightly limp party poppers on the DVD launch -
Cassie got snapped to hopefully appear in several magazines in the coming months - watch this space or see Tim for details.
Kris has hopefully overcome his baldness inferiority complex, Andie, after her 'scenic tour of london' has hopefully recoverd after having to climb test hill - yep, unaided, LOL, and i have finally picked all the thistle out of my backside - Nice!!!!!!
Rain, or rather hailstones, inevitably appeared just as we were trying to wrestle the gaz....eeeeee...bo to the ground, cars were packed, Adrian lost contact with his magnetic Frisbee - later to be found tucked up in Tim's F and we all 'left the building'.
Fabulous day, well I thought so anyways.
Not too sure about the 'bunny burgers', but the ice cream's were scrummy.
Anyone not seem or even bought the MGF10 DVD yet - shame on ya. Superb dvd. Only wish I had Cassie back then and to have participated, but, there's plenty of events yet where the 'PINKSIDE' shall be present.
