Where do you work in Hook Paul? Not for VM is it??

Reebmit · 12th June 2009, 21:08

Hi all, I'm sure I have seen you Mark (LG53), I work in Southampton and drive through Cadnam onto Totton and see various 75's. I'll keep my eyes open now and give you a flash if I see you. I'm in a British Racing Green 75 W419***

same goes for you paul

Hi Empty, I work for an IT company called Panacea based just off junc 5 on the way into Hook itself. I see a silver 75 ending is something like SGC most mornings. Used to chat to a chap with a ZT tourer with French plates in Tescos filling station but he sold it as it was going to cost almost 3,000 to get it converted for UK regulations, he's got a new 58 plate Focus now. If you ever go to the Bridge Tavern in Ipers PM me and we'll have abeer or two. I only just caught yor wave last night and took skin off my knuckles waving back as window was only slightly open as I was smoking.

Reebmit, I think I have seen W419, will keep eyes peeled and flash next time

Best go back to my baby sitting of our 6 week old Kitten. Got 4 cats now plus the Jack Russel and the horse.

Hi Paul
Sorry for not replying 'till now. I work for Virgin Media And am in Hook every now-and-then, so will def PM you next time I'm up.
Sorry 'bout the knuckles, I did see you kind of punch your wave out of the small smokers gap!!
Sounds like quite a menagerie you have there!! I'll stick to my one dog I think

Still haven't seen W419 Reebmit....I'll keep 'em peeled!

Hi Mark,

I've driven past Virgin Media a few times as I used to do alot of work with Serco. Also, another forum member works very closeby as he lent me his service reset tool when I did an oil change. Just about to post 2 entries on the tech forum as I cant for the life of me see how you change out the pollen filter plus adjusted handbrake shoes this morning and hand brake still almost vertical.

We must have a beer down the Bridge Tavern at Ipers (Rollestone Road on the way to Beaulieu) when you get a chance. Paul
