Did you do anything interesting in 2007?

[Lakelord]

I had a meeting at the Williams factory in Grove this year and they were kind enough to let me drive their F1 simulator and wander round their museum. Good fun!
So, following on from Ben's piccy post, I thought I'd share these with you in case any of you are interested.
Apologies for the standard of the pic's but I wasn't expecting they would let me take photo's so had to rely on my phone.

Went to Jaguar factory and saw new XKs being built which was awesome.
Went to Beaulieu a couple of times which is always nice.
Started driving, and got my first car. WOOOOOHHHOOOOOOOOO

P.S. - 1:21 on the simulator although that was the public one in the museum, not the real simulator.

Those ecomentalists are really ruining motorsport by imposing all this green carbon footprint nonsense on us.

I did a Palmersport day the week before xmas - brilliant fun.

[AngryS3Owner]

Oh now that must have been a LOT of fun

I'd love to go and do the motorsport sensation again but it just costs sooooo much money if you have to pay for it yourself.

I flew a Seneca III back from Florida to Blackbushe. Now that was 'interesting'

Greg, was that the trip that the heater failed and you froze your 's off?

Drove a wide range of cars from 1.5 swift to 500hp 1960's Shelby Mustang, Lambo's etc
Learnt to drive a powerboat wet fun!
Drove a boat round Loch Lomond and saw a white stag,
Got 3 points grrrr
Did my first ph run
Bought my S3

Been a busy year with a few mistakes mostly a good one!

Plans for 08 consider new jobs that get me going, move house, do a Euro Hoon, and see the Milau Bridge!
