    People in Glasgow must be frendlier 'cos I've had about 4 people in the last week nearly drive off the road they're so desperate to wave. Course they've all been woman and I'm georgeous so it might not have had anything to do with the car.

    So you're gorgeous Big Col, this we've 'still' to see and I think Gordy might have something to say on this subject

    NOW, when you're a stunning blonde driving a JCW 'S' it's not only MINI drivers that wave

    Drive down the A720 (Ed City Bypass) eastbound every morning between 8 and 8.30, see the same MINI's in the the westbound lanes, wave to them every morning and no-one ever waves back! apart from the guy in the red/white classic mini and the blonde lady on the EB/W MCS (not you Linda )

    Big Gordy's jealous Linda.

    You never know. I might make the festive period a bit special for you lot this year and turn up for the cruise to St. Andrews. Even looking as rough as I no doubt shall since it's in the middle of the alcohol season you'll still se I'm a pretty big sod.

    I pass the same 3 mini's every morning on the way to work, I do the wave & flashy light thing, Lady in the Yellow Mini One waves back, Lady in silk green Cooper tries to avoid me, Bloke in Dark Silver MCS totally ignores me. Each to their own I suppose. (I am driving a Cooper 'S' at the Moment)
