It is still on though.
I was going to go to it last month, but I ended up turning up during the daytime instead of at night... as somebody gave me the wrong times, lol.This is the website:

Jaytc.... was you pulled up in front of a pub in Atherton near kwik save at about 5pm? I saw a black classic with gold wheels, and a large WRX logo in the centre of the boot.
Andy, is yours back on the road now? I have heared a couple of Scoobs going past, but can't be bothered to look anymore... as it tends to be that lad in the light blue one all the time.

Yep. Its back on the road although we haven't been using it until we get the new decals on. Don't want any stonechips or anything daft overwise they just peel off or bubble. Saving a fortune on fuel though using the Primera and Ka. Over 40 miles on a fiver in the Ka. I'd forgotten what that was like and cornering at speed is real fun (and dangerous).

Young 36 years. We are moving up to the Scottish Islands either Orkneys or the Shetlands. With what we have saved and the sale of this house we will manage. Won't be loaded but comfortable. Property is very cheap up there and no mortgage on this place.
Use washing powder when cleaning up after the puppy as disinfectant attracts them back to that spot again.

Was gonna ask my dad to look after the pup as he cant travel with us unfortunately, but think it will be a bit active for him so we have some friends who will take her for a few weeks (theres also a kennels near bedford high school that apparently specialises in lookin after pups, but that is £13 quid a night plus food!!)
Taking her for her second jab tomorrow night then a few days after we can take her for walks (thats if all our bite wounds are healed!!)

Saw you passsing the street last night going down passed the Railway Pub.
As regards the wedding do you need anyone to carry your bags? I'd offer, anything to get out of this rewire. Absolute nightmare of a job. Far to much stuff in the house. A family of 12 would have less.

Thanks for the offer of carrying the bags, however we have these suitcases that have wheels so not needed unfortunately!!. Flying first class as well so hopefully wont have to carry it to far in the airport.
For your re wiring just do a council job and just run it in trunking on the walls

Whats first class? A train journey to Southport would be my financial limit fist class. It sounds as though a good time is going to be had by you both.
As regards the council job I could use the same size of cable for everything and then, run it in trunking and forget to put the cover back on or at least cut it short. Good idea.

That would have been my estat parked on common lane just coming off the one way system in tyldesley - i leant it a mate who lives near there...
I've leant it to a mate in atherton at the moment - so you may see it knowckin round there..
As for the red grill - that's the only one i had spare and the green one was cracked so i just put it on...
If you see a car parked up does that still count as a spot??

Even milk floats are classed as a spot around here. If it wasn't for a Toyota driver this thread would not be here (and its the most used thread on Scoobynet) so as jay states- a spots a spot.

Do I get any scoobynet award for starting it up? 
Speaking of milk floats, they are usually hanging around at about 2am every morning... as I'm usually up because I can't get to sleep.
Is that bloke with the black moustache, and black rings around his eyes still working on the milk floats? I think I spotted him about a year ago... and he's worked on them for as long as I can remember, lol. Does anybody know who I mean?

Just rescued this from page 2 for a good reason, lol.
Was anybody here in the silver Classic at Pennington flash tonight pulled up on the left hand side where you just go in from the main road?
It was a silver classic with the reverse lights/indicators tinted in black, and the plate MXI (4 numbers after this)... or something like that. The time would have been around 8pm.
Also, spotted a black classic through leigh centre with a lovely sounding dump valve at around the same time.
Probably none from here, but hey ho.

OK, who's the lunatic in the browny orangy tan coloured Renault 5GT Turbo??? or who knows him ??
Just followed him down from Atherton doing about 40 through the 20 zone all the way down to Tyldesley and then undertaking at 50+ by the entrance to Sommerfield... what a feckin lunatic
Not like he got anywhere doing it, I was still behind him going down Astley Street 
until he booted it to 50+ again down Princess Avenue.
Once more I have to say 'You Feckin Lunatic' Hope you get pulled and soon !
