Background

[MrRS2babe]

France/Jersey (live in France commute to work in Jersey)

33

Audi RS2 (funnily enough) but may be gone by June..boo hoo....
plus a tired out very noisy quattro
plus a backfiring Peugot 205
plus a Yamaha Neos 50cc scooter which I'm determined to ride down on this year.

work - offshore finance industry..............

Been about 6times I think now - but living down the road makes it a lot easier!!

other comments - can't work out how I'm gonna get the swimming pool I've promised to bring on the back of the scooter???

[RS2 Babe]

 
All of a sudden this has turned into a 'Mr & Mrs' Nicolas Parsons type thingy.

So Mr RS2 reckons he is a France/Jersey type - well let me tell you he is a Brummy through and through and even remembers the Birmingham Grand Prix!! (street thing I think)

Nigel Manson was from Solihull the same as Mr RS2 (so he is secretly all made upabout that)

33??? yeah right he is 34 in about a months time

The RS2 is fantastic and having it 'chipped' was the best money we ever spent.

We were on holiday in Geneva and spotted this F40 in a garage so investigated. The garage 'chipped' cars so in exchange for paying for this MrRS2, MrsRS2(me), Junior RS2 and Mate of RS2 got a go in the F40 with the lovely Fabrice-he was about 35 and smelt like Heaven (that is only my opinion)

I will be driving the Quattro down to Le Mans this year whilst Mr RS2 is on his beloved scotter (50CC) (which he has also had derestricted)

So don't worry about the pool - I have it all worked out - by the time Mr RS2 gets down to MB on the 50CC I will have had loads of fun in the Liverpool Boys camp and seen the finish of the race.

MrRS2Babe - over to you!!!!!
