Title: Place To Be on Saturady Post by: Jay (Team Cannonball) on March 29, 2004, 07:18:26 pm Hi,
Me and a couple of my mates have been down at the race the last few years, and I still don't think I have quite perfected the Saturday night. Last year I ended up at the JK gig, absolutely wasted and proceeded to get in a fight with a fat German about god knows what and thats the last I remember. The year before that I got bladdered at the fun fair and ended up spending half the night looking for our mate who had gone on a mission to get himself in as much trouble as possible. Now I'm sure we have the getting bladdered part down to a tee, but i'm not certain the venue is quite right yet. Any suggestions We will be on Karting Nord again this year, look for the rubbishy blue corsa (unless I can con the bank into a loan - they don't like PhD students) and the Scottish flag, there is always a beer going for people with a good story to tell. Cheers James Title: Re:Place To Be on Saturady Post by: jpchenet on March 29, 2004, 08:04:13 pm You weren't the guys handing out the leaflets advertising "The Cannonballer" were you??
Title: Re:Place To Be on Saturady Post by: BigH on March 29, 2004, 08:38:14 pm Dearest Cannon and balls,
Now, you come on here, waving your credentials (by the way, can you get them to slap your buttocks? - it's tricky I know, but think of hula-hoops), and asking for advice on the nearest venue for a right 'ole Barney... Fighting Germans just isn't the way forward you know, that's sooooo.. 1940. Look, it seems you're probably from Glasgow (and what's all this "James" bollocks? if Jimmy was good enough for your Paw...), and the idea of a good night out without a glassing has probably never crossed your unfurrowed foreheads, but, I'll have you know, this is motor racing; the sport of gentlemen, for f*cks sake. However, there is a crowd of lads that I know will be keen to indulge you in that sport of skill and craftsmanship. Some of the people on this forum refer to them as Pikies, but that's stretching it. Roustabouts and honest to good ruffians is probably more accurate. They can be found in the fun-fair, manning the punchbag, having staring competitions with each other, and occasionally refreshing themselves from bottles of Tizer left behind at the campsites by some of our more generous contributors. I suggest a naked bout, with lots of custard. Can I come? H Title: Re:Place To Be on Saturady Post by: Steve Pyro on March 29, 2004, 10:41:19 pm I suggest a naked bout, with lots of custard.

My my, what narrow minded bigotry I found here. Being from Glasgow I'm used to this. However when a 16 stone bloke practically floors you as he surged forward to attempt to grab a shitty Audi UK T-shirt that were being flung into the crowd (Which by the way would never have fitted him), I felt like I was allowed to express my displeasure. When no apology for flooring me was forthcoming, I took exception in the typical fashion. Now I know not all Germans are fat and I know not all Germans are rude, however this one was. As for calling me a Pikie well that is like an arrow through my heart. No we weren't handing out cannonballer leaflets James, Jim, Jimmy, Jimbo whatever the hell you want to call me.

Saturday , Shampoo Bar , Village . 9pm Title: Re:Place To Be on Saturady Post by: Jay (Team Cannonball) on March 31, 2004, 02:41:15 pm Cheers thanks Robbo. Why is it called the shampoo bar, dare I ask
Title: Re:Place To Be on Saturady Post by: BigH on March 31, 2004, 03:00:09 pm Jimbo,
You've found some narrow minded bigotry? Fantastic! Where? Anyway, I'm glad to hear that your little encounter with the German fan wasn't entirely gratuitous, and if your mate was off looking for trouble, then maybe LM isn't his pint of heavy. I can forward details of my dear old Grans WI if you think it'll do him any good. Perhaps it was a different sort of trouble he was searching for, in which case I have misunderstood and the WI Thai Boxing School would do him no good at all. Apart from the marmalade of course. We do seem to have got off on the wrong foot here, me 'ole sweaty, and I'm sure my cruel stereotype was well wide of the mark, and for that my apologies. But let's face it, in no time at all we find out that your from Glasgow, called James, have been in a fight with a foreigner whilst palatick and your mate is out looking for another! I hardly jumped to any conclusions. But that's history now, I grovel from the bottom of my bag and offer unreserved apologies for any distress caused. H Title: Re:Place To Be on Saturady Post by: Jay (Team Cannonball) on March 31, 2004, 03:10:16 pm Thanks H,
Just to clarify here, no-one goes looking for a scrap. The mate in question however was in no fit state to scrap, and had taken a shine to a lady who was selling pick and mix. He had disappeared with the intention of buying his own weight in pick'n' mix and never returned. During his absence, (he happened to have the kitty, car keys, race tickets on his person) he managed to get run over and was found in the ditch at the back of the tent that he had been used as a WC. So no we are not Scottish hooligans on tour, merely a bunch of chemistry students (now former students) who enjoy drinking and motorsport. This will be the last time I rise to the bait. Looking back my first post could have been portrayed in the wrong way especially if you are one of lifes cynics. J.

The Brethren, based in Karting Nord, have a tincture especially formulated for your mates' sweet tooth. Rusty calls it 'The Chilli Challenge', and for a small beer or two I'm sure they would be pleased to oblige. I can testify that it focusses the mind wonderfully. Their knees-up normally takes place on a Friday night. There we are, sorted out and best of mates now! Aren't forums wonderful? Apart from all that grooming business, of course.
