DanGull Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 I've just been looking through the age group poll - and there are loads of people on it who I've never seen before. People with 800 odd posts even. Where have they all gone? Have the Mk7 Mafia driven them off with all our talk of waiting times? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanGull Posted July 26, 2009 Author Share Posted July 26, 2009 I once entered a pun competition. I wrote ten amazing puns and thought one would win. But no pun in ten did. ^_^ Quiet indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm, yes - we STILL haven't seen Jonny's car! JAR is noticeable by his absence. He promises videos that don't appear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael P Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 boo hiss to johnny, the day before he got it as well!! hopefully he will post sdomething saying he fell down a hole for a few months and he didnt have the internet, and then he was rescued by little cows that then confiscated his laptop after johnny confessed his love for beef. then after many weeks of reasoning he then got his laptop back and ran home. the end.

poohbear Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 I havent seen or heard from Jonny in months, he was organising the meet too :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulworthing Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 JAR put up some video's on his facebook but you are right about Jonny87 - he did disappear. As for people disappearing, I guess we all come in here to chat away about how much we are looking forward to our car's being delivered and then once they have we are too busy driving them about. Bearing in mind I would have been carless for 13+ weeks by the time I get mine (if it is delivered to time) then I know it is what I am going to be doing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael P Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 but you won't go away will you paul? because if you do i'll set my crew on you and you'll regret it christ i can't even pretend to be threatening, the nearest thing i have to a crew is the town of crewe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I try to post every day if possible but it depends on who's around doesn't it? I think it would be a pity to desert the forum just because you've got the car--half the enjoyment in life is being able to chat to different people and it's such a friendly site as well plus...............you'd miss your hedgepig wouldn't you?

DanGull Posted July 26, 2009 Author Share Posted July 26, 2009 Was someone talking just then? I heard something I'm sure... ;) Hedgepig - you're an institution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael P Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 Hedgepig - you're an institution. i second this! i love this place, i'm on a couple of other forums which are very good but this one is very friendly and i tend to constantly make a bee-line for it every single time i'm on the internet!!

hedgepig Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 Was someone talking just then? I heard something I'm sure... ;) Hedgepig - you're an institution. I was in Tamworth earlier today--is that anywhere near you Dan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGull Posted July 26, 2009 Author Share Posted July 26, 2009 I was in Tamworth earlier today--is that anywhere near you Dan? Sure is - my nearest town, about 5 miles away. What on earth brought you to here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hedgepig Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 Sure is - my nearest town, about 5 miles away. What on earth brought you to here? My thoughts exactly! Seriously though, Janet likes Ventura Park shopping centre so I gave the car a blast down the M42 just so she could buy a few bits from Hobbycraft...........didn't even get to look around the boys' toys in Comet either! On the way back I saw a white and a tango Fiesta--wonder if either of those owners are on here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGull Posted July 26, 2009 Author Share Posted July 26, 2009 Was the white one a mk7? I know of one white Zetec S mk7 in Tamworth - but it's a diesel so it doesn't count Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGull Posted July 26, 2009 Author Share Posted July 26, 2009 Oh, and I didn't think anyone liked Ventura, you'd be better off going a bit further and hitting Birmingham!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hedgepig Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 Was the white one a mk7? I know of one white Zetec S mk7 in Tamworth - but it's a diesel so it doesn't count Yes, the white one was a Mk 7; we were on the dual carriage just under the bridge before the turning into the park and he / she was coming the other way. I only caught a glimpse of it but it could have been a Zetec S. The tango one was also a Mk 7; it was parked a couple of rows behind mine in the car park nearest to Hobbycraft. I had a quick look and that was a zetec tdci. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGull Posted July 26, 2009 Author Share Posted July 26, 2009 A tango Mk7? Nice, resprayed or imported do you think? And I've been meaning to ask for a while - WHY are you called hedgepig? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hedgepig Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 A tango Mk7? Nice, resprayed or imported do you think?No, I think it's a genuine one--didn't look like an import anyway. And I've been meaning to ask for a while - WHY are you called hedgepig? Now that would be telling!!!! ;) I'm a man of mystery..........you wouldn't want me to betray any secrets here would you?!

Bashful Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 I usually have a nosey every day, not been on this weekend - fell down some stairs on Saturday and damaged some muscles in my leg, computer didn't seem very appealing :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
