marzman Posted November 6, 2007 Posted November 6, 2007 yeh this week though i've been sleeping with the window open and wearing shorts (instead of just boxers) to bed, and having my shoes right by the bed, just waiting for the slightest noise outside. I got up twice over the weekend in the middle of the night, jumping up when i heard people going past! It stresses me out. I need a garage! Quote
rmmackfc Posted November 7, 2007 Posted November 7, 2007 Not long now.... I never really got excited about my current car, perhaps cause I was letting a good one go. . . Quote
martinmac Posted November 7, 2007 Posted November 7, 2007 I take it we are not going into hours when it gets to one day Quote
Drexyl Posted November 7, 2007 Author Posted November 7, 2007 Feels like hours now!!! sodding hundreds and hundreds of 'em! Quote
NismoDave Posted November 7, 2007 Posted November 7, 2007 Feels like hours now!!! sodding hundreds and hundreds of 'em! Keep the faith mate, wont be long and you'll be behind the wheel Wish mine was only a few days away but its still in Japan!! Quote
Drexyl Posted November 7, 2007 Author Posted November 7, 2007 Yeah, I know what you mean, Dave. Must feel like time is stretching away rather getting closer. I really feel for you, mate, 7 or 8 days must seem insignificant when you're waiting for weeks. Hang on in there. Quote
NismoDave Posted November 7, 2007 Posted November 7, 2007 Yeah, I know what you mean, Dave. Must feel like time is stretching away rather getting closer. I really feel for you, mate, 7 or 8 days must seem insignificant when you're waiting for weeks. Hang on in there. We need a 'waiting for your Zed support group'!! Quote
Drexyl Posted November 8, 2007 Author Posted November 8, 2007 7..... Don't forget, boys and girls, that this is more than just a countdown to me collecting my new car. My phone could ring at any time, and this could all be snatched away from me in an instant! hope you're still crossing those fingers? Quote
martinmac Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 Looking at the weather up North you wont be going anywhere this week Quote
Drexyl Posted November 8, 2007 Author Posted November 8, 2007 Yeah, I looked this morning and it gives a 7.5 metre swell for next thursday , theres a dip on monday that could be worrying and it can all change yet. If you looked at the link I posted the other day, those graphs are updated every 12 hours. All hail to the sea god, Poseidon, that in his infinite wisdom, he is a merciful and just God what loves 350z'ses! Quote
martinmac Posted November 9, 2007 Posted November 9, 2007 Could do with yu here today, rather a lot of extra water around Quote
Drexyl Posted November 9, 2007 Author Posted November 9, 2007 Just been looking at the graphs, Martin. At the moment it shows the wave and swell height trailing off early weds morning This could be very bad news! Midday thurs looks workable, with the swell rising slightly on friday. If that doesn't jump up over 2 metres, I could be going Weds I implore everyone, pleased keep those fingers crossed Are you up there now, then Martin? Quote
martinmac Posted November 9, 2007 Posted November 9, 2007 No mate, on the Thames and waiting for this surge to run down. I never trust weather forecasts so hope that you will be ok. Couldnt your other half pick it up for you :lol: Quote
Drexyl Posted November 9, 2007 Author Posted November 9, 2007 She keeps saying that if I can't make it she'd gladly pick it up, I bet she bloody would! I told her that it's not so often that I buy a new car that I would sacrafice that whole experience on this occasion. I said that it'd just have to wait til I get home, but that could be another 3 weeks How would I cope!!! I showed her tha pictures of Stuey's wheels on here that had been kerbed, and can you believe she said "so? I do that all the time in mine"!!!! If she thinks I'll let her even look at my new pride and joy, she's got another thing coming! Quote
Drexyl Posted November 10, 2007 Author Posted November 10, 2007 5..... That weather is starting to look iffy Quote
Drexyl Posted November 10, 2007 Author Posted November 10, 2007 Mate, at the minute looks like the only thing I'm gonna meet on thursday is the chopper out to the northen sector! Quote
nixy Posted November 10, 2007 Posted November 10, 2007 just think of all that petrol money your saving, miles that aren't going on your car, nasty weather that will make it dirty, erm, can't think of anything else - trying to put a positive spin on it! Quote
Drexyl Posted November 10, 2007 Author Posted November 10, 2007 I'm positive that if I don't collect the car on thursday, I shall be crying into my pillow for the next 3 weeks!!! I'll know for definate on Monday whether or not I'll be home or not, so just keep keeping those fingers crossed for me, eh? Quote
nixy Posted November 10, 2007 Posted November 10, 2007 I understand your pain. I ordered mine in march, was hoping to have it end of May then got it in June 2 days before I went away on bloody holiday! fingers are crossed! Quote
Drexyl Posted November 10, 2007 Author Posted November 10, 2007 Thanks Y'know I'll have been at home for 5 weeks come wednesday, I've had loads of time that I coulda been driving around, and It'll be just typical if I get called away a day or so before collection! Here's hoping though. Quote
