Default So whos getting ready for bedford!!

I'm gonna be giving oranoco a helping hand to sort out his car tomorrow ready for the track day.

Cept he is getting me from mine at 9:30 tomorrow morning... how dare he, dont he realise I'm unemployed and sleep untill 11am most days

Due to money constraints I wont be taking mine

But still should be a laugh, can't wait

and can I have a very gentle drive of your car please? You know I drive well within my limits now after the accident

You know the rules... if I break something I have to replace it with a brand new and much better and more expensive component
