    Fantastic day. The comments have to be as follows:

    1)HUGE thanks go to Shoppie from me and my big (wee) bro. Sorry for having to leave early and cause you hassle. Your patience and assistance were greatly appreciated. Thanks also for organising the day for us. You also win quote of the day for "We'll be leaving when the polis get here" in a true Italian Job Stylee.

    2)Most painful sight of the day was the mess neddy little b@satards made to KJ's motor. If you need an extra set of steel toecaps in the vigilante squad to hunt them down I'm there dude! :mad:

    3)The biggest "on the bright side" moment also goes to KJ for having the sexiest wheels there. Niiiiiiiiiiice!

    4)The best recovery of the day goes to Fossy Jnr. Clowns to the left of 'im, jokers to the right and he goes "Fek it! I'm going this way!" goes straight on and all follow! Quality!

    5)Sexiest thing of the day, in my humble opinion, goes to the heart breakingly sexy Kirsty...

    mobile!! I REALLLLLLY want your car! Yellow & Black 'S! <drools>

    6)Most courtieous person of the day also goes to Kirsty who helped many of us out by stopping and waving us on when the wandering MINI's were trying our best to get back on track.

    7)Most in need of Wul's services on the day was tha big pimpin WillieM for that SHOCKING wax job!

    8)Best driving moment of the day goes to Tribal for not 1 but 2 instances. 1: The sudden swing onto the hard shoulder to close her boot after some VERY dodgy advice on how her key works (Wimen...sheesh) 2: The Schumacher esque way she was behind me on the left on the roundabout but once I went to move back into convoy in front of her she was already a lil speck in the distance in front of me! Barrichelo out Tribal in in my opinion!

    9)Finally the most schizophrenic moment of the day goes to ickle lnl. "Fossy Jnr turn that music off it's terrible!!" as he gets his ickle groove on none the less.

    Quality day folks. Wish I coulda stayed longer and talked to more of you. Was excellent putting faces to names. Roll on the next 'un.
    :approve:

    MASSIVE RESPECT TO SHOPPIE

    Honestly, I can't say it enough! The mnd boggles how much organising that must have taken. A great day out for all the NMS family (despite the best efforts of the weather).

    Apologies to all those towards the rear of the convoy through Arbroath who were stupid enough to follow me....

    Was great seeing so many new faces and some more familiar ugly ones

    For lnl - I'll ask my brother what type of induction kit the guy in the Tornado has fitted...yours is just not LOUD ENOUGH!

    ...biggest disappointment for me though....I didn't get to meet Big Col:clown:
