Myself and Suie left Warrington on Friday evening, destined for Glasgow. We took a train, which worked out to be very cost effective smileys/smiley17.gif

Once at Glasgow, Scott and Suzanne picked us up and we headed to our Hotel bar... A few beers were guzzled down, before it was time to hit the sack.

On Saturday morning, Scott gave me a call to say my 'special' letter had arrived. smileys/smiley16.gif

We pottered around for the afternoon, went to feed Suzanne's horse. (I can still smell that garlic smileys/smiley17.gif )

In the evening, things started to get even more interesting smileys/smiley2.gif

Photo diary...

The four of us hit the streets of Glasgow...

We blagged our way into the Lite Bar and had a few beers, before going for a meal...

At some point some money changed hands... Almost with a tear in his eye, Scott said goodbye at the end of the night...

The next morning, myself and Suie woke early, grabbed some breakfast, then headed for the motorway... smileys/smiley2.gif


We did encounter quite a few funny talking people and some snow. smileys/smiley17.gif

I got rid of the XR2i last week Dan, so I had a spare parking space smileys/smiley2.gif

The white car is going to be my daily driver... The VTS needs a few jobs doing, which I never seem to find time to do smileys/smiley17.gif ... and let's not forget how stupid it's clutch is smileys/smiley17.gif

Now the VTS gearbox can explode (due any moment) and I don't need to worry about transport.

I don't have any big plans for the white one... just a few simo-touches. smileys/smiley2.gif

Couldnt have had the car go to a better person and it still looks better than my vts which simo is the only person to have seen

The big mystery about Scott's VTS is.... That it's actually BROWN, and not BLACK.

I saw it with my own eyes yesterday smileys/smiley17.gif

Simo
28th November 2005, 15:23
No, I didnt take the ICE... and I think Scott has plans to transplant some of it into the 'S'.

Anyway... ICE is for eskimo's smileys/smiley2.gif

I dont have a great deal of plans on the cards, although you never know smileys/smiley17.gif

Scott
28th November 2005, 16:12
the drinks were called green eyes, they are made with blue curaco vodka and fresh orange.

I really need to purchase an exhaust this week and get it fitted before comign down for next weekend. Its just looks bizarre at the momentsmileys/smiley17.gif THose at christmas party will see the vts in its brown glory lol.

Still prefer the white though smileys/sad.gif
