  1. well yes but its mostly boring motorway miles only enlightened by Lakes, Welsh and Scottish Hoon runs I intend to keep the damn thing as long as possible maybe even 19 years like my Beetle! Lets face it it will be worth about 25pence after all these miles!
  2. cheeky b*****s! You know you prefer my leisurly trips around the Welsh countryside .... that boy racing stuff is for Vauxhall Corsa owners!
  3. In Ramsbottom (near Bury) on sunday and guess what I saw!! Not bad public loos made from old containers - hey its classy up North!
  4. Try to get a few 4GB memory cards -they cost peanuts these days !! Go for something like Sandisk Ultra II speedy ones not the cheaper early ones - the faster the transfer to the card the faster the camera can take another pciture kind of thing? As Luke has said get out and about and take pics - go to the local Zoo, stand near a motorway and get used to panning shots of cars whizzing past and use your funky modes on the camera! Just play! Oh Memory cards are supposed to last for years but like CD's they dont - so dont keep all your photos just on card? Get them downloaded to p.c soon as you get home and transfer to DVD or CD-R.
  5. looking forward to seeing you there matey!
  6. Very nice Did you do a Starsky and Hutch stylie donut scream around the car park!
  7. Beavis I can be lead car - we can have a lovely diversion to say Morcambe
  8. purchased end of March 7.5K - now 26.5K
  9. Oooh Mike - not long to go now - get those shoes polished up !
  10. Mines July 07 (313bhp) and I love it - I would go for the best you can afford and get exactly what you want otherwise you will regret it later! It was the combination of the revised interior, lights and new engine that made me decide to go for an 07 also some warranty (for my high miles to work)
  11. too right mate people like that need locking up Surprised it was'nt a BMW or Merc driver?
  12. Shooting in RAW is a good idea - for such a fab trip so you have the backup option of fixing pics back home if need be as stated before. - get the biggest memory cards you can afford (but check camera can handle them?) Buy at least a few spare sets of extra rechargable batteries but also a set of high power alkaline batteries, which tend to last longer (heat effects batteries badly!) Otherwise enjoy yourself - if you PM me I can help with software for you If your camera has a sport mode (i.e a constant focus mode - you can chase a fast animal with your camera as is speeds past - without worrying too much about a blury mess !)
  13. I remember this was first mentioned in 2005 (Probably same link as before:) http://www.nissan-global.com/EN/NEWS/20 ... -01-e.html I had just got my Xtrail and hoped it would be available then - but nope! If they just went back to evil Celly or 2 pack (Not your water based rubbish today) we would'nt need self healing paint in the first place - or even just spray nail varnish gloss or better a thin solution of weetabix - that will weld itself quite nicely to the surface of your Datsun and never come off! Bit like pigeon sh**!
  14. That is a good price - its £17.99 - at my local shop and they are generally the best prices?
  15. Damn it - the other Night Blue roadster! soddin things are getting too common Must track down and eliminate!

  19. Ha ha - typical!! On one of my recent excusrions to Edinburgh - they were pointing pathing flags on one corner of George street - 1 guy pointing , 1 guy mixing a bucket of cement, 1 guy brushing up , 1 guy drinking a cuppa and watching the rest. I walked past them at 10:00am and later on in the day when walking back to hotel (about 2pm ) they had managed to point 2 flags! 2 Flags!!! I did the whole of my patio in 1 afternoon by myself!
  20. The original founder of the Wales drive out that you all enjoy so much today Yeah used to drive a nice Zed I seem to remember
  21. Mike dont worry - thats normal - everything will go well on the day - everyone will make sure it will - is not just for you to worry about - just remember the ring and put yer tie on straight! he he he! 14:30!
