Memories...........

What's been your highlight of the year?


I really enjoyed doing some road runs this year - Shug's birthday, Mexi-Towers and Zippy's birthday runs were great.

DDtB's "roasting" incident at MT will take a fair bit of beating as will picking up the Caterham.


Seasons Greetings

Mexitowers, even though I was paxing, Ed still let me drive he car for a good bit. Went a long way to easing the pain of not having the Exige at the time.

Zippy's birthday run, scorching weather.

Campaganza on Mull, yet again unseasonably fantastic weather, amazing photos and top banter.

Picking the car up in Essex and driving it all the way home.

Locking the keys in the boot on the first day :oops: and desperately trying to join the RAC and AA on the internet using a GPRS phone from a car park in Newcastle.

The Walsy day, then back up through Wales/lake district putting my new found confidence to test. :lol:

Driving up through the Alps and over into Italy. :love Linda Screeming as I overtake a coach going up Stelvio :roll:

Being chased by boys with camers phones through the harbour car park at St. Tropez, even though the place was full of expensive exotica. 8)

The two runs I managed. The mad Vauxhall driver following us down the Devils Beeftub in to Moffat :twisted: :roll: and meeting you guys :D

Birthday weekend on Skye, driving Apple Cross/Torriden.

KH and my first PAX with Ali :thumbsup Burtieduff's lady getting out of Tuts car on the last SIDC :ROFL My Pax with Tut in the wet :cheers

All your help and support :thumbsup

10 months of ownership and 15,000 miles of fun.

Now I should go on to the Christmas wish post and say. I've been really really good. I WANT ANOTHER ELISE :cry:

me too! sadly i still had some things i really wanted to do but never did! One good thing - ive learnt carpe diem!

some great moments on track this year - finally getting up to speed and being comfortable with the car being not quite straight round corners :D
Just before I killed AZR, I was on track at the SIDC day, really hot day but was pushing it loads trying to keep up with the exiges :D loved that!!
