Another 'big hint drop' that I don't have a classic ... ....

Yet!


and its about time you did Joe,

i can just see you in a nice Spider, shades on, roof down, wicker champers hamper in the back and off to a Lincs picnic meet! ha ha!

More like a bottle of whiskey and a cheese and pickle pork pie!

... or that fried up pigs stuff Shrew gave me with my beer last time we met....

What was it called again ?

Pork scratchings

even i don't like pork scratchings

pork pie though, now you're talking

With brown sauce though ...

Chop, or Daddies?

HP for me ....

Yeah, can't go far wrong with that eh Joe, BUT, i remember a certain butty that was a saviour from above on a particular trip i wasn't enjoying, and all the "chef" had was fruity chop, and i tell you what, for half the price, it taste bloody marvellous!



Lord i can't wait for a 156 lounge where all this sort of stuff can occupy the server space instead! ha ha!

daddies sauce, the only one

just the job on mashed tates

Brown sauce on mashed spuds ....

oh yes.
must admit that when i have S&K pie, mash, carrots, parsnips etc the whole lot gets a good dose of daddies then mixed up. lovely stuff

Must be a Lincolnshire thing ..

Bloody hell I'm hungry

not just the brown sauce thing........seems being understood isn't to be taken for granted

was at brands today with my rob, bsb racing.
went to a burger van to get a tea and a coke.
woman said "what?"
"a tea and a coke please" i replied
"a what" she says

now, i know i'm from lincolnshire and we were down south, but surely it isn't that hard to understand me?

"a tea and a coke" i reply again,

oh, "chips & curry" she says

wtf???

bloke standing next to me couldn't believe it either, "he wants a tea and coke" he says in his best scotts twang,

bloody hell i though, that'll confuse her!

sure enough she goes "oh, a tea and a coffee!"

lol.

shame it rained a lot, but a good day out.

never been to brands, always put off by the distance to go and being told years ago it was a crap track.

is a long way to go there and back in a day (300 mile round trip) but an awesome place to watch the action from





and i had brown sauce on a bacon roll first off, then a bacon cheeseburger, with onions. siad to be so good they should be illegal..........hmn.

Its them bloody southerners mate!

Anything north of blackwall tunnel and they make out youre an alien!

Arr so when I come up to visit you all just say yes or no and nod at the appropriate time. I'll remember that this year. Good job i can understand most of what you guys say.

If you don't speak the queens English , what do you expect init

Dont worry, if John, Tony etc come up north, we know how to get by

3 nods to every 1 shake of the head mate, that's the ratio when talking to you southerners


be nice to see you again this year tone

Was going to come up in the Sud but it will be the 145 again. Have taken the oppourtunity for the Sud to have some majorish surgery while up-north with you lot.

You know its actually funny how you guys have the talent of switching between accents like flicking on a button ...

Last time I was with Eddie in his V8 Sud, he was talking all normally to me, and then he saw a mate passing by in his van...

he picked up his phone and rang him up !

Then he started talking to him like he was a different person, raised in a different part of the world !

mid volume and calm chatting, instantly became high toned sharp yelling Oi Aye Ei Ui ... the words in between I couldnt understand one bit

Just a bit of an update for you all today, having spent many an hour geeking with our resident web guru, we are a whole lot closer to the sister site for post 98 alfa models, ModernAlfaForum.com

The webspace has been purchased, the domain name applied to it, and the welcome pages that folk will land on, whether searching for the modern or classic site, has been designed, with button options for either site, from either search, if that makes sense?

We did as much as we could today, and now the servers have to refresh, globally, before we can do much more and see the fruits of our labours.


A few modifications and a bit if background tidying up on the CAF site too, but most will go unoticed if im honest, but rest assured, plenty achieved to keep things smooth running on here, and many steps closer to the sister site MAF (ironically!)

A good day for all of us
