I think (I'd like to think) that he was just a bit excited about his new system and forgot some basic rules of hospitality. Either that, or he's just a bit of a twerp - also possible.
No doubt your integrity meant u made sure the loose screw in the bass unit was tightened before you left ! Despite temptation. !
I don't really bear these sorts of grudges. When all is said and done, our shop needs customers who buy pricey stereo systems. We'd have to sell a gazillion iPads to make an equivalent margin. But if I ever have to go there again, I'll have about 4 coffees before setting out.
Funny you should mention that. I did feel like a pee, but his house had a strange configuration and I didn't want to ask where the loo might be lurking. I could have done I suppose, but I don't know. It wasn't offered, I wasn't desperate so left it at that.
if someone's rude enough not to offer i will always be rude enough to ask. sounds like you do the same job as my best man. that's how he scores all theses odd bottles of whiskey as tips. people spend some money on there home entertainment.
Not that impressive tbh, but the tyres were. Was pushed fairly hard, after first session saw the highest psi ever in my rear!! Let out a load...and only got a little twitchy on full throttle at full lean coming onto the straight we were using for pits, rear felt like it was drifting a little. Its a fact the multi a great all round bike but adv group in the dry...well you get lots of room anyway although with some of the overtakes today I was cursing not having my trackbike. Nothing better than stuffing it back...and lost count of the number of times I had to drift wide because everything was scraping to have someone coming round the outside on the last long right-hander that was the fastest group I've experienced on a DUK day. But we coped
I made chervil soup. Oh, well. Not a complete waste of day then. At least England beat India in the cricket.
First foray into the inters group! Went okay too. I did wonder if I might have booked the wrong group, that was compounded by the slowest novice I have ever seen. Lost count of the number of bikes I passed on the outside Had it stuffed up me for the first time too ending in an unintended trip off the track, thank god it was Silverstone with acres of run off Although to be fair I could have done more to not have ended up in that position with hindsight, seems the learning curve is steepening again!
You appear to have ONLY used the very edge of the tyre Bradders - were you slaloming down the straights somehow?! Good to meet you - very briefly - and catch up with Matt (MB) and Matt (DWrecker). Also met Nelson, and had a chat with Jakub Smrz who permitted me this very gormless selfie: Cheers, Dom
Downside of using dealer garages is you end up spread all over the place rather than a normal trackday when you all meet in the same one. Snells was rammed...wonder why
Had a visitor today. As my sister-in-law roared off in her new car, my wife commented, "I think I made a mistake marrying you. Look how happy my sister is in her new car." I said, "Yes, maybe if you sucked a lot of cock, your boyfriend would buy you a Porsche too." "I may well just do that," she sneered. "It's a bit late now," I replied. "I can't afford two."
The antique rug advertised as being in "mint condition", which I bought last week on E-Bay arrived today. When I opened it up, there was a feckin' big hole in the middle.
