Random Thursday Hoon
- Thread starter inkey$
- Start date
When I first bought mine it lived in Strawberry Hill for the first few years (also next to Twick & Richmond), in the first few months of summer ownership we did soo many random middle-of-the-night-roof-down trips to Central london.. great fun.
StuartTruman I too had an office in Hounslow, opposite the notable "Moon under Water" Wetherspoons - god did I see life in there
I'd say 50+% of the country's nicest motors are tucked away within a 20mile radius of that point
Hope you're enjoying the hoon inkey$
Mine was Godfrey Way. Just far away enough from everything to be completely boring! So I relocated to our Bristol office

Andy I still do that!!! We were almost neighbours by the way.
I love the drive into town along the A4 with the roof down, down the embankment and up to Tower of London....would be great to be able to predict the weather and do a central London meet on a Sunday morning...

Oh yeah what does that mean..I grew up in Hounslow
Okay, so am currently parked awaiting Green Flag
Lovely drive to west London but on way back I drove over not a particularly offensive pot hole and the exhaust sounds like its switched to a Remus...only with a severe lack of power. Had a look underneath and can't see anything out of place. Noise def coming from the back of the car.
Some hoon this turned out to be...and O really need a p1ss!

Oh Inkey$ that's really unfortunate
I nearly started a thread lately on potholes. They're a nightmare and they're everywhere on our roads..really annoying :thumbsdown:RubyBlueZ4MC said:inkey$ said:Okay, so am currently parked awaiting Green Flag

Major issue round my area - drove over some in my mum's fiesta today that were like hitting a brick wall, in the zed it would have damaged both me and the car lol
I'm always looking out for them and swerving. Such an awful feeling in the ///M if I hit one, just terrible.
Thanks guys. Yeah, me and ///Molly currently sat waiting for recovery who've just informed me they'll be another hour.
Had another look underneath with torch in the dark and suspect back box join on near side has come away slightly, but until the green flag man gets here and takes a look its just me and my thoughts.
Good news is that I did manage to find a loo though; all the way up in Clapham Common High St!
Edit: did manage to remember one photo earlier though. Not the most scenic street shot in Hampton!

Car still looks good, sorry to hear you're stuck waiting though
Shiny ///Molly, looking good I thought you were going to swap to stubby? I've been toying with the idea.
