Matt... Welcome

Your timing is pretty good as we have our monthly meet coming up on the 26th over Huddersfield way..

AFAIK, there's a couple of guys from Cas or near that way.... Mick! Mick! Your there?

If you can meet up with anyone coming from that way then tag along to the Holmfield Arms to follow another group over to the Fox Glove.. Alternatively, come straight to the Holmfield and follow us in over Emley Moor....

Looking forward to seeing you and your pride and joy..

 

Hello Sir and welcome to the WYIOC, please remain seated and enjoy the ride thank u , and see ya soon..

 

Until a few months back we used to meet in Cas'. As above, you're welcome to join us at The Foxglove, Hudds, or even better join in the run over Emley to get there

Welcome to SNet and the WYIOC

Thanx for the invites,if im up and running in the scoob ill make 1 in,would be good to be part of such a well known club!
Matt

 

If the car's yellow and the driver a fabulous looking male model, then that's Mick. He also does a mean Traffic Officer impression

 

Hi Matt

and welcome

As mentioned I do live in Cas, and guess i rattle pretty much every thing I drive past, dont think you could really miss the car, the color is subtle

Thanks for the build Al, guess we have to meet for me to exchange some cash for your kind truthful words, maybe this time not get filmed by crimestoppers lol...

My traffic patrol duties are only there when the need arises, like for a massive sting op of course with my trusted colleuges.

Matt your more than welcome to join us at any time, I dont make many of the holmfield meets as my finish time does not fit in around them .

<ahhh can remember the TP>

Get some pics up mate, and dont forget wave like a crazy guy if you see me around

Mick

 

Hi mate, and welcome.

I'd like to reccomend the WYIOC as being a great club, full of great blokes (and great bints ), great cars, with great meetings at great pubs.

They (we?) are the best bunch of Scooby owners you could wish to meet.

HOWEVER!



It would seem that SOME of them have problems letting sleeping dogs do what they should.

Just when you think you're getting over something, when the last painful shreds of the terrible memory seems to have slipped from the most remote corners of your mind, at a time in your life when you really need everyone's support, some git goes and lays the boot in by bringing it all back to you in vivid flashing blue, yellow and reflective white technicolour!



Anyway, I'm in Cas' too, just round the corner from Mick, so that means that the two best looking guys in the club are just a stone's throw away.

...why the hell Al would mention the looks is something that will become clear when you meet him for the first time. I reccomend wearing latex inspection gloves before shaking his hand and, just to be on the safe side, don't mention his spoiler.

...or the lack of a decent burble from his exhaust

...or the anthracite alloys

...and finally, and most importantly, no matter how much he screams, no matter how much he cries, never, EVER, feed him the idea of winding up another club member just before midnight.



Boll*cks, all this means that if this poor unfortunate chap turns up at this months meet he's gonna get the full low-down on IT!. I think I'll turn up late. Someone give me a call when it's all over





Welcome

Sticky (Mindless waffle due to wind-up induced stress)

It's like those Vietnam flashbacks you used to see in Magnum, only without the moustache... or the Ferrari... or the Dobermanns (could be supplied at short notice. 9 pups available in about 8 weeks, contact Ella)

Think that's all for now. Need McCoffee.

Bye

 

I think this calls for a special Castleford version of the initiation ceremony.

Here's the shopping list...

3 x 1:10 scale replicas of Henry Moore's 'Reclining Figure' sculpture
1 x Tube KY Jelly (industrial size)
2 x Pairs Marigold gloves (1pr Large, 1pr Dazza sized)
1 x 2GB Compact Flash card and appropriate camera
5 x 500watt halogen security light fittings, to provide sufficient light to allow a really quick shutter speed and thus reduce blurring
1 x 3000watt deisel generator to power the above
1 x 16' square tarpaulin (You know how upset they get at the Foxglove if we get 'stuff' all over the car park)
1 x Steve Davis signed snooker cue (Steve might have to help out with this one)
2 x Club walkie talkies, we don't want no bovver wiv the Rozzers again, do we. Whose turn is it to be lookout?
1 x Pair of step ladders (just in case Dazza gets the above job)
1 x Babel fish, so that the new lad can understand a word Al says
1 x Tom Tom sat nav (any model) to allow him to have a chance of getting home from the FG unaccompanied
1 x 'My **** Has Piles (TM)' comfy seat cushion, to help in pain relief on the drive home
and finally

2 x AA batteries, for 'You know what'




(Bet he doesn't turn up now )

 

ERM....... i think i might be busy that night, erm....maybe another time eh? <backs away slowly back into the car, **** firmly planted in the seat,doors locked,foot down!>

Sounds like a very......interesting night to say the least! whats the numbers like at these meetings,is it a good turn out?

Yeah mick and co. if i cya rumbling past al give ya a wave and youll probably think whos that tit?!hehe!
Matt

 

Through the darker months there may be 8-12 cars, rising to a regular 20 when the fairweather crew come out of hibernation. If the Hull guys come over (Al, we really.....you know ) then we have seen as many as 40 We also have runs out to places like Strines Moor/Snake Pass, Yorkshire Dales etc, convoys to events like NBO/TOTB and our very own trackdays (coming up on Apr 8th).

 

Welcome to the bestest, greatest, most friendly Impreza owners club in the whole of West Yorkshire

Don't worry too much about Sticky, he's going through a bit of a transitional period, puberty I think it's called or is that Dazza i'm thinking of

Anyway, assuming your money comes through OK, get yaself down to the meet, I would highly recommend meeting up at the Holmfield Arms for the entertaining run over Emley. If you're feeling really brave, at the end of the evening you can have a go at keeping up with Corradoboy on the way back

Unfortunately it looks like I'll be missing this one as I'm gonna be stuck in Reading all week due to work

 

1, 2, 3, 4 & 5 are usually okay, but last month 6 was depressed because he found out that 7 8 9.

1, 2, 3, 5, 7 & 11 are in their prime, but watch out for 4, 9, 16 & 25, they're a bit square

Don't sit at the same table as 1,234,233,723, he's huge, and he'll nick yer food.

69 is usually fun to be around

 

Matt... As the saying goes, you don't have to be mad to join, but it helps.

 

i duno bout trana keep up with you turbo boys,i wunt have a prayer,plus its not worth wasting your fuel against a sport,first gear would see me off,so i think ill pass on that m8,ill just hang at the back and watch, lol!
i dont suppose some of you attend a certain motoring event at grimethorpe do you? a kid wo telling me about it at ponty on sunday,it sounded pretty serious!
Matt

 

HEHE,like it!
Matt

 

Now Matt, come along, we all know as do all the other members of Scoobynet that an Impreza turbo is not a fast car. Indeed there are many threads on here to back this up, there are many members of Snet that have been shamed by being beaten by the latest generation of turbo diesels, not to mention all those Clio's and Leon's we have to watch out for , I'm sure you'll do just fine

 

And be careful of those Land Rover's and ****roen Picarse'oles out in the Yorkshire Dales

 

We also don't do cruises. The only cruises most of our older members will do will be organsised by SAGA..

Shandy, nice meal and a good talk about cars with a post and pre meet spirited drive all completed in a chav free environment with some fine company....

 

Sounds good to me! just got intouch with the seller and its going through friday all been well! CANT WAIT!!!
Matt

 

Hi Matt,
Im the mick you mention who knows your dad and yes it has been alledged i do spend just a little time in the healdfield pub

I havnt been to a meeting for some time but i will soon be returning to regular attendance so if you want to call in to the pub then i can tell you all about the club and when you get the car you can come through with me, or if you havnt got the car and want to attend ill take you through in mine (No comments about driving skills thankyou ).

 

What? Us rake over old coals again and again... never..

Anyhow.. where's the remnants for the trophy?

Good to see you at the show buddy..

 

Now then mick, thanx for the reply and for the offer! I should be getting it this fri with abit of luck fingers crossed!
Going back to the pub thing, when we first moved up here i thought the black scooby owner was the pub landlord as it was outside rather alot,LOL!.........and why not?!!!
Gotta say though, your wrx is probably the best ive ever seen as im not right into the bug eye model but yours with the kit and the rest, really does make it look the part! goodwork!
Is the other guy with the green turbo 2000 on here aswell, tony i think innit?
Oh yeah and my dad says wheres your luncheon meat? .......

Mr Sticky are you from Cas and have a newage impreza with full rally decals on it? if so i think ive just seen you at glasshoughton round about!
Matt

 

Bugger me! (calm down Apple)

You bump into a distant memory of the ghost of a former member at a motorsport show a hundred miles away, and he pops back up as though he'd never been away.

Hi mate. Be good to see you attending again.

Al, the trophy is safely stowed at my place, but seeing as we no longer have a pool table at the regular meet it's gonna have to be awarded for something else.

And the award for best Sarrazin replica graphics on an STi8 goes to...

We'll leave it where it is for now

Folks, your nominations for the potential recipient of said trophy will be more than welcome. First one to mention anything about 'police' or 'stings' gets a kick in the knackers
