Kathryn Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 it goes like this..... I was standing on some snow last week in deepest Bulgaria during my first skiing lesson ever and was wearing my Caterham beanie (excellent head wear for keeping ears warm when it is -8 degreesC!). Then, what do you know, but the guy standing next to me spots my woolly hat and announces that he's got a Caterham too - so HELLO MARTIN! As usual, a BIG thumbs up for the Club, where thanks to a beanie hat Duncan and I made some great new friends. Turns out that Martin's car is the same colour as ours, too! *thumbup* Who'd have thought that is was possible to meet another 7 driver in Bulgaria, when both our cars were still in the UK?!? 'Twas a fantastic week, and we all skied the whole mountain by the end of the week. No broken limbs to report, either! Anybody met another 7 driver randomly in the middle of nowhere?

Normans_Ghost Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 Yep, loads, every time I go to a field at Le Mans. But we're not skiing. Sounds like you had a great time, what were Bulgarian sheep like? did you understand them? Do they speak Welsh or Bulgarian? Oh, questions, questions.

Barbarella Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 Sounds like you had a great time, what were Bulgarian sheep like? did you understand them? Do they speak Welsh or Bulgarian? Why do you want to know Norm. Has some bizarre EU regulation suddenly made it profitable to import Bulgarian sheep. Do you NORMALLY attempt to carry on conversations with sheep? HM beware. If you hear mysterious 'Baas' emanating from the garage, and/or Norm raids your sewing box for velcro, investigate immediately. Worse still, if he stands in front of the freezer muttering in some foreign tongue, phone the men in white coats with the huggy jackets. I blame Paul Davis. Everything is his fault. Including multiple spams about Viagra that I got again this morning. Se7en's - the most fun you can have with clothes on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Bill Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 the only 'baas' that you get from Norm would be around christmas time, the old curmudgeon... 😳 BB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan L Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 I wore my Caterham beanie when skiing in Slovenia the other week and the best response I got was what's a Caterham 😳. Made a good ski hat, ears never got cold. Alan and his Yellow and Green 1700 BDR HPC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I.Mupferit Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 We met R400 racer Steve Frost and his daughter, who is this year doing the Academy series, whilst skiing in Courchevel the other year. I was wearing one of the old dark green Caterham baseball type hats with side flaps which velcro up under the chin 😬 Ok I looked a prat in it but it don't half keep your ears warm in sub-zero temperatures. Then bumped into 3 German Caterham owners and their cars in Bardolino on Lake Garda last September. Brent 2.3 DURATEC SV.

Normans_Ghost Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 I've suspended talking to sheep, in any language, they are the most stupid animal on earth. I've taken up talking chinese to jack. Close your eyes and picture this. Second thoughts keep eyes open to read it first. HM and I get into bed after midnight. "BAA", She says "what?", I say "never said anything", "Oh, thought you did", "BAA", "what?", "stop it!", "stop what", "that noise" "BAA". She gets out of bed and looks out window. Flock of sheep outside. Ring next door to George and inform him his sheep are in the road. Offer to give him a hand, he declines help. I get back into bed.

Hibster. Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 "I blame Paul Davis. Everything is his fault" That's not meant to happen now I'm single, you've got a husband to blame for everything (that's what he's there for isn't it ?)

Kathryn Posted February 23, 2005 Author Share Posted February 23, 2005 Norman, I'm sorry the white fluffy animals were so noisy in the middle of the night. I'm not really into talking to them, just looking at them really. Hope they wobbled out of the road eventually. Holiday was good - just not so good being back at work now! Am beginning to plan the next holiday though, which involves the 7 so that makes us happy! *smile* I like sheep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
