Aye I can do that one.

Won't have a hoonable car though (in fact will be shedding it) if anyone has spare seat capability for the hoon I'll be up for that.

Olly.

[tomTVR]

Great stuff Olly. You can hoon with me or Warren usually takes on the job of hooning people without cars!

I'll add your name to the top list.

Every year about 20 or so of us book a self catering converted barn in the countryside (usually in yorkshire) where we get pissed and talk about cars. We also go for a hoon on the local roads.

Its a great event

ETA: its always a winter event, something to look forward to in the bleak and bitter months while waiting for the nice weather to start again!

Hi folks

I live in Berwick upon Tweed and I would be well up for joining you for your hoon on Saturday!!

Could you give me some idea of what time and what route over the Borders you are planning.

Cheers

Mark

I like the sound of this, I'll most probably be in depending on work commitments nearer the time.

[2woody]

I'll come over on the friday night - and peel off at some point on the saturday - I live over towards Hexham - prime Hoon country.

want a hand with a "hoon-route" ?

[tomTVR]

2woody - Welcome. I have added you to the list, Warren had mentioned earlier you were coming.

Mark - Will email you some details nearer the time, will be a great hoon though up into the borders.

Ol - welcome anytime, let us know whenever.


Cheers guys

If it is just me & Minimax coming from the Midlands, we will come up in the Skoda. If Rob Polarbert can be persuaded to reconsider, and we get Matt Teaboy on board too, we will all car share and come up in the Bentley.

I might be interested in this (and I'm Midlands as well)

[tomTVR]

Ah - go S to a Z4, thats what i did. Just as fast but doesnt break down as much!

[coolcatmaz]

Cheers, might bring the Bentley, or possibly the Opel EVO - haven't decided yet !

[Hot_Stu]

Sounds interesting ... can another Midlander tag on?

[coolcatmaz]

Urmmm, am I the only girly possibly going or are there others

[Balmoral Green]

Anna_S and her friend Elizabeth usually come, but I don't think they are this year. I'm not sure Nicola will be coming either, despite being on the list. Kirsten is on the list though, I don't think I know her?

It is a bit of a lads weekend, but there are oldies like me, and more level headed people too.

You'll be alright
