[Lord Sterling]

One does not simply buy a car and not take it to the Hollies.

Ah, but its not mine it was delivered to its new owner last night when I came back. A bit late due to getting lost in Wales.

 

It appears as if you found an old Rover garage, I wish I dragged my lazy arse out of bed now! Where is this garage, me and my KV6 Sterling will have to make a pilgrimage there soon.

[hairnet]

Just today - never knew bank holidays started on a Saturday

 

Junkman is looking in the tat shop

 

No p6 tat tho

...me and my KV6 Sterling will have to make a pilgrimage there soon.

and puma man who must have got lost/separated - we were following andy in the p4 so how that happened i dont know at 40 in a 60 everywhere

 

not expected but good day out

[Sloth in a bowl]

I got separated when you lot went in the right hand lane through some lights for a roundabout then the lights changed as I was another 4 vehicles back.

Effing BMW driver blocked me as I was leaving auction site, which was why I was off the tail of the convoy, by half a dozen vehicles from the off.

 

I then went the wrong way at the following roundabout, realised my mistake, turned about went in a Litchfieldish direction and ended up at Chasewater before you guys did.

Had a coffee, bought a couple of books out the station shop for a £1 each, (Bulleid's Pacifics and Railways and War) then took random roads back to Brum to have a quick shop, lunch and cinema meetup with Mrs for The Man from UNCLE (good chod count, worth watching).

 

I can't have left Chasewater that long before you guys arrived, oh well.

[Inspector Morose]

Shit. And bastard you buying a bullied book! You WERE missed though. Station cafe is now a new meet up place for brekkie before auctions MVM approved!

[hairnet]

aye

 

although the hollies brekky baguette was ace

 

the cafe was better

 

sloth its not a 1.7 is it

 

shoulda left it at hollies id have give ya a lift as went back that way anyway

[Inspector Morose]

I must say that much enjoyment was has today. It's great to meet up with other AS members, even junkman with his hatred of CXs. It's just the tonic that I need after a gruelling fortnight of work (okay, with an interlude of greatness from the Skoda of win plus the greatness that is Mr Fowler and CMS). Please, when the next one rears its ugly little head, come and support us. You won't be disappointed!

It is a 1.7, they are so cheap that it is not worth getting a slower one (1.4 or 1.6)

The only expensive ones are the Ford Racing Pumas as they made so few of them

I was wondering about 12th September as there is racing at the nearby Hensford Hills on that Saturday afternoon.

I'll ask the monster-in-law if we can borrow her drive again 

[Junkman]

It was a truly great day despite no bidding on clapped out brummy cabs was possible, so apologies to Lord Sterling, who is consequently still relegated to walking.

I was tempted to whack in a sneaky bid on the railway instead, though. Oh, and on the delightful 827 Si at the shabby chic Rover dealership, of course.

 

And many, many thanks again for letting me scare a lot of people with the Auntie Rover!

It subsequently climbed quite a few positions on my to have list.

Only until Thursday next week when the McKV6 is rudely disturbed from it's slumber and MOTd for road use again.

 

Oh, and on the delightful 827 Si at the shabby chic Rover dealership, of course.

Please tell me someone got a picture of this?

 

I wonder if that Rover dealer would like some window display in the form of 3x Rover 800s?

[Pillock]

I tried, but it turned into a drive to Cannock and back

[purplebargeken]

This is not real until we have photographic proof of an actual purchase at this auction house of repute.

[chaseracer]

Most of what happens around the AS Midland Massiv is unreal in some way or other.  Yesterday was a fine example!

[Conrad D. Conelrad]

Please tell me someone got a picture of this?

 

[Lord Sterling]

Cheers Steve. Gonna have to resist the temptation to buy that when I visit. Though I'm still gonna offer my Sterlings for display.

[chaseracer]

This Saturday - who's up?  I shall need cheerful* company and a DEATHBURGER after waving a fond farewell to the 300E as it heads north to a new life in ScotVolvoland.

 

I shall also need my hands sewing into my pockets...

[bub2006]

What where when and why

I'm in. Brakes will have to be sorted another time as Mrs_Sterling/Turkish based Sterling_family stuff has popped up.

[chaseracer]

I'll meet you chaps at teh okshuns, after Doug has left with the Merc.

[purplebargeken]

It ain't real until someone on here actually buys some auction chod. Much celebrations when this happens!

[Lord Sterling]

I'll meet you chaps at teh okshuns, after Doug has left with the Merc.

No Hollies (Truckers stop) then? Or is that for after?

[chaseracer]

Nowt stopping you lot meeting up at the House of Bacon!  I'll be along later.
