Just want to say thanks to all for a top weekend! Ballast - the orange health drink sh*t is a good way to line the stomach. Shame about the side effects though...Is Deliah ok? Mr Zarse - I am still amused that I woke up with Allah, but amazed that he didn't wake me when he went off a few inches from my head! Thanks for the cider...yummy!!! Fran - Were you as distressed as I was when you went to the toilets to find they smelt like a whore's handbag and there were women putting on make-up in there? Paddy - As Ballast said you must wear your pants on the outside of your trousers from time to time. Beers and a make shift shelter. Both much appreciated. Everyone else....great to meet you all / see you again. Did someone mention a beer festival or was I halucinating after drinking orange health drink sh*t?  |

Doris - how would I know what a whore's handbag smells like?  Those women were putting on make up? ? I thought they were just poking their eyes in disbelief at seeing the comfort and luxury of our shelter? |

Your recollection is spot on Doris. There is indeed a beer festival. It will be held at the Hatch Warren Community Centre in Basingstoke on the 9th, 10th & 11th September 2005. JPChenet, Deliah and I are on the commitee. A few Club Arnagers came along last year and a good time was had by all! Stick it in the diary Gazza |

Lol!!! I'm glad it wasn't just me. I staggered down there around midnight on the Saturday night, absolutely knackered after marshalling, looking like I'd been dragged through a hedge backwards, bottle of beer in hand, several more in my stomach already to find lots of "girlies" in crop tops etc., taking their make up off and beautifying themselves!! I went to the loo, made a token gesture towards hygeine by washing my hands, went to bed and passed out - never did finish the beer!!! |

I think a big thank you to all the marshalls is called for. That must have been hard workin those conditions, even the amount of time that was spent waving yellow flags must have been tiring. You really did deserve that beer Piglet. |

Thanks for that Bob - I'm only the lightweight model I have an "inside" job and although we did some long old days and I was absolutely brain dead at the end of it at least I was out of the weather.
The real heros are the boys and girls who were out on the bank and in the pit lane for the entire duration having done a long day on Friday and Saturday in most cases and then having to turn up again on Sunday. Waving a soaking wet yellow flag during all the safety car periods and being out on track trying to clear vehicles must have been hell.

Well we had a great, albeit very wet time. My only solace was that it was wetter and colder at Spa  Really. I was at Spa in my MG F and thought it was miserable but not really wet, just foggy ? |

What a thoroughly bloody nice weekend! Thanks to A Zarse for driving my bed to silverstone (the commer - She's a beauty!), DW for heaping all that praise my way, Steve Brown for snoring in my ear and sticking his bony elbow into my ribs all night (call that foreplay!?!) and Doris for being just as excited as I was about the late night motoring escapades. Footage Ballast?? not quite sure it exists, but I'm working on an artist's impression...
