V 8 Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 I nearly wet myself when a small lad came up and whispered "Is driving the Flymo like making love to a beautiful woman.......? Arrived at Ollies and the rain was rodding down, so decided to not take out the Flymo, and use Kurts tow car that belongs to his wife....brave man!!! Turned out to be a bad decision as the weather was glorious after lunch. Nice to have owned the hill record for 3 months, well done Tel, a storming drive, took me three days to get down to 42.07! You knock 1/2 a second off that in 2 dry runs. You are the master. Thanks to Peter Hillaby for letting me take the Flymo up once for a "retirement run" Bad luck Gav, you are a very lucky man See you all soon, will be at Thoresby to spectate maybe compete on Sun, the Flymo has well and truly gone to its new owner *sob* Sorry Kurt for beating you up the hill in your wifes car. Watch out for "Tommos Travels" in the future..I'll still be around in one way or another JT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slippy Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 Strange place for a tank slapper though what happened did the car just go light over that small rise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy @ Cat Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 Strange place for a tank slapper though what happened did the car just go light over that small rise We were at the top of the hill when Gavin had his accident. Driving back down the hill I noticed a stream of water running across the track before the hole in the fence. I suspect that may have had something to do with it. Get well soon Gav.
