Old member back after a long hiatus
« on: 25 January 2020, 11:43:37 pm »
Hello all,

I was reasonably active quite a few years ago. Even attended a France trip way back when.

Anyhow, family, kids, job etc etc and now I’m aiming to finish my 200Tdi Ser3.

Best,

Johnathan

Hiya Jonathan, I remember you from one of the Bannegon trips. I'm not a leafer owner nowadays, but try to keep in touch with everyone.
Do you believe in leaf after leaf?

Welcome back, Johnathan.
It's a lot quieter here nowadays, the same goes for all forums I suppose.
A few diehards keep checking in though.  :thumbs:

Hello chaps - a few old faces still around then.

Chippers - I remember you - shame your are without truck - nice that you are still involved though.

Kev - good to see you still around as well - your vehicle’s were always an inspiration.

My early SW is being moved to a close garage next weekend- I’m aiming to get it finished this year in time for it’s 50th ! Will definitely need some wisdom and perhaps a few parts - will need to get my post count up 👍🏻

Hello  :smile1

We rode in my motor to Bannegon. Remember "Team Player"?  :smilewide:

I also no longer own a Land Rover.

Evening Dave - that was a great trip - largely thanks to your kind offer of a seat.

My overriding memories are:

Huge croissants
Offal Andouillette  :bleurgh
Some chap really irritating by constantly going on about 5-year plans!  :handbag

I trust you are well 👍🏻

I forgot about his 5-year plan! I remember that Joskin had to hold Munkie back from tearing his head off at one point.  rofl

Strang occasionally posts photos of that so-called meal, on Facebook, now and again, just to **** me off. No one believes me that they gave us sausages that stank of cow ****.
