I thought that was photoshopped so the mirror area was black and white #-o
I asked God for a bike, but I know God doesn't work that way. So I stole a bike and asked for forgiveness.

Right, my turn for photos! :)

(although, by now they're beginning to all look quite similar!)

There's a selection of my photos here: http://www.borealis.me.uk/gallery2/main ... temId=2581

Though the below is a selection of that selection:

(Edit: Just a bit frustrating. They don't work... :evil: I'm afraid you'll have to use the link above...)


Thanks again - it was great to see people, but I missed seeing a lot of people that I'd have liked to have seen, (such as Charged) and I was too shy to go and talk to a few people I recognised/have met before but always seemed to be talking to other people... (Speedy/Anna) :oops:
Plus it was good to meet new people, which I managed...

Oh well. Not helped by the fact I had to rush back to get some work done ('Popped' into the office on the way home - left at 10!!! :( )

It's just because the file doesn't end with a .jpg or .gif, I think phpBB goes a bit 'special' and doesn't think it's a picture.

:lol: yeah. However, it used to work before. I updated the software on my server, (ironically so that I could get the links quickly and easily to post them onto forums) and since then it's just not processing stuff properly whenever I do external links. But I've read of people trying to fix this and losing all the info on their photos so I'm a bit paranoid at the moment... When it comes to finally sorting it out, there will be a lot of :pray:

Yup, true. Shows how useless I am at real-life social interactions, eh? :? :pale: Next time!

-----------------

Oh, you may see a bullet cam in some photos. It wasn't working, then I managed a patch fix while we were on track waiting to go. I got some video (though it's not great quality it's fine for internet broadcast quality) but unfortunately as I didn't know where I was in the convoy, I pointed it forwards. And then I was almost at the front. #-o :roll:

Still, at least you get to see Tom jumping the queue and making it all one line... :mrgreen: When I get a chance I'll sort it and upload it (to a website that works!!!)...

Well you said hello to me Max :thumleft: (mind you I'm much more approachable than Anna and Speedy :wink: )

And I wasn't jumping the queue, the course car driver ordered me to follow him. I guess he wanted an immaculate Supercharger :wink: at the front! :mrgreen:

Arghhh, sooo many MR2's. And sooo many damn nice ones. It's a credit to the car and proves that they're well looked after by their owners.

It was - I had my scanner with me and caught a very good rendition of 'Why are we waiting' whilst queueing to go on track :D

Was great to get so many MR2s in the same place and to actually drive in such a large convoy. The tunnel was amazing - I only realised when I looked at my pics that it was actually called the 'Exhaust appreciation tunnel!!'

Shame it was so disorganised - the guy in front of me hadn't heard about the 2 car lengths rule (or chose to ignore it) and was making it very difficult for me to keep a set distance beind him. I was actually surprised we had got the record because I noticed a few large gaps!

Well done to everyone who turned up though, was a great day.
