Tricks that old racers get up to after retirement

Was sad to see that the victims of the Grand Canyon helicopter crash were all from the town a little further down the coast—- Worthing—— helicopter accidents are very rare indeed these days, but there’s usually a witch hunt when one happens———— this ones no exception.
Should the craft even have been flying in 55 mph winds ?——— was the pilot capable ? —— was the eurocopter airworthy!?
Ive been on that trip into the canyon myself, along with millions of others——- I wonder just what the outcome of this enquiry will be ?
Anyone got any thought on the matter?

Time to rise and shine——- got me a Lexus to collect !

Very true my friend——
Was chucking it down as I walked down the drive this morning, there’s a nasty hole in the drive, grass either side———- I tripped and started to stumble—— this turned into a trot as I tried to correct it——— ten yards down the road I was into a full blown totally out of control sprint, before falling arse over tip ——- digging a hole in my knee and taking layers of skin off my left hand . All before 8:00am I never felt quite so stupid in all my life ——
Jills daughter Catherine had kindly offered to take us to collect the F Sport Lexus. I never got to drive it home———— passenger ride is nice though———— BOLLOCKS,!!!!!!!

Jesus wept, but your a sadistic old bastard Ron !

The F Class Lexus, Jackie!!

The F Class Lexus, Jackie!!

you only had to say Gene——- Thought you’d all turned queer on me !

[ron54]

Looks a million dollars....

[Rotary John]

Holly Cow Jackie. You had better take it back fast. They must have figured an old man like you wouldn't notice. They put the steering wheel on the wrong side!

[jackiewilson]

Looks a million dollars....

Not quite Phill——- still a bloody big bag of gold———I don’t ever buy brand fire new, it’s way beyond my pocket !
This one had done 11,000 miles and was just over two years old——— was £25,000 under list , had a ridiculous spec, all the way including a tow hitch.
Anyway, out of all the ones I found——- this is the only one that suited me. All I needed to do was beat the crap out of him on the price!

Hey Jackie

It must of taken you ages to find one with the same door dents as your old one had ! Smart thinking that......

My chief medical officer ( Jilly) decided to change the dressings on my knee and hand last night as it had been done in great haste before we departed to collect the mighty Lexus ———- was fortuitous she did—— she found GIBRALTAR in my knee and ALCATRAZ In my hand which I had valiantly ( and without complaint just simply got on with). Unfortunately, said rocks left bloody great holes in this old body with lots of the old Royal juice leaking profusely——— don’t worry I won’t be posting any more piccies —— no matter how hard you ask me !
No doubt about it, when you fall over at 86—- you bloody well ache after it, no matter how gently you fall——- my advice is, don’t!
Saying goodbye to to my old friend the trusty Lexus today—— served me well for the last seven years.
you don’t often get a pair of Lexus on your drive ( wonder what the plural is ? )

If I tell you——— you ain’t never going to believe me————- miserable, messed up, Fairy Type F Sport Lexus refused to fire up when her who expects to be obeyed at all times put bum in drivers seat To repair to the super store. YE SHIZEN HITTEN ZE FANNEN I ZE BIGGEST FECKINIST VAY——- MODOM VOS NOT BEST PLISSED.

[jackiewilson]

ER——- Sorrreeeee, But we won’t be saying goodbye to the trusty old Lexus just yet, Modom is full of absolutely no confidence! ———- She is not, over impressed with the sight of a dead Lexus parked outside her front door on a Wednesday morning———- last straw was when the old trusty lady was called upon to render life giving first aid to kick start some heartbeats into the expensive no goer!
RIGHT——— IT GOES BACK NOW!!! Her indoors in a foul mood is not a pretty sight! 75 miles later with the salesmen wringing their hands and begging forgiveness with a brand fire new YUASA £200 battery fitted and a tank full of unleaded, we waved a fond farewell to the poor sods who had unwittingly sent Mrs J. R. Wilson away with a less than perfect mode of transport in exchange for the thirty plus grand the aforementioned lady had forked out.
There is a lesson to be learned here, never, ever, mess, ——————-

Was many years ago when I first came across Willabee’s “HOT SINGLES “ thread, it was some of the most impressive reading of circuit powerboat Racing I had ever read. To find out it was written by someone I had known for ever was an added bonus.
Now Welch and I have a lot of jiving, but believe me, there has never been an ounce of malice in it, we’ve always been good friends, that’s why we can slag each other off like this and get away with it.
1 gave him a bunch of my old pictures a few years back——- besides, he makes much better use of them on his hot singles thread than I ever could on the Tricks thread.

Funny thing happened to me on the way to collect the new Lexus——- I tripped——— fell arse over tip and landed flat on my back gazing up into a sky that was just pissing down with rain, thinking, I should give Willabee a call before long, we don’t speak often enough, when bang, right out of nowhere, I get a P/M asking me if I want all my all phoggies back———— now what the hell am I going to do with them?

Hes just had a mad fit of depression s’all——- he’s too FECKIN mean to be ill and he’s too close to being the first to the million hits——— too ugly to say what’s going on. Don’t worry William, Stickle will tell me what your your game is !

Well——- we’ve owned the all singing an dancing F SPORT RX LEXUS for 24 hours——— it’s been driven for over 250 miles, but not by me. I’ve had some good down time in the passenger seat and it’s quite comfortable. Holes are healing rapidly and I got an idea for a Seebold tunnel trophy——- getting old man Seebold to part with a few shillings these days is a job for David Copperfield———— Blood out of a stone is easy !
