  1. It's on the M4 between J18 Bath and J17 Chippenham so if your going the M4, yes it is I can be there at any time. If it's a go, I'll pop a new thread up with the place & time to see if we can make the convoy bigger ! Cheers G
  2. Fancy meeting at Leigh Delamere Services M4 between J17 & 18 ? I can whip up to 18 Bath & meet you eastbound ? Cheers G
  3. Which way are you heading to Pod please ? G
  4. I'm looking for a favour... I've just bought a set of bike leathers that I need to arrange to collect. Is there: 1, Any member who would collect them for me that are coming to SupraPod ? 2, Any member that would collect them for me and have me collect them by carrier from them ? The guy that I've bought them from doesn't want to deal with a carrier for some reason. There's a good bottle of Single Malt Scotch in it for somebody ! Cheers Gerry
  5. That's a pity as I was going to post up some tasteless ones, but I won't now as obviously you are easily offended G

    I thought you sold your Supe ? (hope I'm mistaken) So, do you want an invite next time then ? ------------------- Re meeting the locals, I did think about it, but as usual, left it to late to post up something. Next time eh ! G
  7. You ought to know, lady members can't say "strip" without comments from all the long standing male members Don't worry, i'll fill her up just for you x G
  8. Thank you for your support you guys. Although we all like to think that a "mere girl" couldn't drive our big macho cars, let me remind you that one of the fastest times last year (or pos the year before) was set by a very cute, slim, five feet nothing lady who's name was Tigger in Pigs big single turbo ! Ok, she may have needed a cushion and Pig may have needed drugs to keep him calm, but she did it And anyway, if it helps "further our relationship" she can drive it as fast as she likes as often as she likes I won't even scream next time - promise G
  9. See the last two lines... http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=225282 G
  10. She has nice eyes G
  11. I've given a biker mate from a local club a few lifts in the Supra recently, which she really likes. Although she rides (quickly) a Suzuki bandit, she’s not really interested in cars and drives a little Peugeot 306 around. She needed new tyres on her car last weekend, so I suggested I pick her up at the garage and give her a little go driving the Supra. My plan being to pootle round the trading estate for half an hour before going to a local pub for a beer. When I met her she wasn’t keen at first and said no as she was wearing flip-flops, but I gently encouraged her as I knew she would like it. Well… after three minutes going round the trading estate at 50-60 (far to fast) she was grinning like a Cheshire cat and saying she loved it, was bored going slowly, and where could we go ? I gingerly agreed and we headed out towards Salisbury ! What I’d completely forgotten was the way she rides her bike, which in biker speak, is “progressively” (to you lot, she’s just another mad biker) As we headed up the A36 it was obvious that she saw the Supe not like her little 306 car but more like a cross between her bike and a cruise missile ! After about ten minutes I relaxed (a little) and realised that she was a very competent driver although a little more “progressive” than me when it came to overtaking and speed in general. It was at this point she said her goal was to get to at least 140 and I somehow felt a little less relaxed Sadly for her (but not for me) during the next two hours (some in the rain) she failed to reach her goal, but only by about 5-10 MPH. As we got back to the garage there was some silly talk of her keeping it for the rest of the day and swapping over the day afterwards and for some insane reason I found myself with the keys to her Peugeot 306 and me losing my lovely Supe on the toss of a pound coin ! There was a tear in my eye as I saw her blast away from the Garage in an instant to the sound of the RLTC being used to the full Plans changed later that day and I collected it from her in the evening (I’m sure it still smelled hot) and all ended well - apart from I’m sure the next time we go out for a pootle, I won’t be driving, and we won’t be “pootling”. It’s possible you will meet Gemma at SupraPod, and if she goes, I fear you may well see her on the strip, so to those with big singles amongst you , keep your keys in your pockets for Gods sake G PS. Obviously the manic speeds were done on a private track ! :-)
  12. Just paid via the posh new shop Supra and me, may be another passenger on the day but assume we can pay then. Collect at SupraPod.

    Wales Mini Trip

    More to follow...
  14. Just thought I’d share a few mediocre pictures with you of our recent long weekend to Mid Wales. It was a great trip… I went with Mr T (Andy) and Jaymdee (Jon) and we left early Friday and spend Friday, Saturday and Sunday blatting round every road in the area, I think I remember Andy saying on our return it was about 650 miles. The roads were great, especially on Friday when it was a bit quieter. We spent most of the time on decent A roads which were fast and flowing although slow when we came upon other traffic or on the thousand sheep road ! Added to this we also did some tours up in the hills and round a couple of reservoirs on tiny roads with passing places, that’s when Jon went into what I’m sure he would have called “Rally mode” but I called “Death Wish 3” mode - great fun following We found a brilliant 11 mile road (called Mountain Road) that I was told Top Gear use for filming sometimes. It’s got great bends with no fences and big drops on one side and moorland the other and goes through West Brecon Hills. We did it about five times We had some quick blats down the A465 and big fun when we came across a big bike ride-out and the leading four or five wanted to race (thems are naughty boys thems biker dudes are) with Jon and me chickening out *** and leaving Andy to show the guys what a Supe could do Stayed at a lovely old farmhouse B&B so started off the day with a great breakfast. Loads of speed camera signs everywhere but hardly any fixed cameras and we only saw one camera van (it’s the ones I didn’t see that scare me pooless) and hardly any police peoples. We did tae some vids as well and I’ll put a link up when I edit the hours & hours footage down to a sensible size. Thanks chaps - great weekend. Gerry
  15. So, put your money on him then I know these young lads, when the lights change he'll be looking at himself in the mirror, playing with his hair or waving at the girls etc etc I myself have no such distractions (OK, apart from the girls) G
  16. Well, as I thought, Jaymdee has chickened out ! We went to Wales last weekend with Mr T and it's obvious that listening to my secret weapon in full chat un-nerved him :-) So, as no Mr T and no Jaymdee, I’m looking for a new victim - I hear that the young whippersnapper Jimojameso is going to be the new JamieP - so I’ll start with him. Gerry vs. Jimojameso Experience & cunning vs. youth and good looks

  21. Please gentlemen, lets not be so hasty as to judge others sexuality when it's obvious that so many of you have similar issues. I mean, you all drive round in HUGE cars with long bonnets ! Here at G & T's Dating Thread, we are not sexist, ageist, gayist or any other "ist" as we firmly believe that everybody's money is equal The management
