...were drunk when Vicky and I found them wandering aimlessly round the Donington Collection this evening.
Daniel - thank goodness ONE of you was sane. Even Carrie was out of it . A good day was had by all I believe - even if I managed to spend £90... We DID however get photos taken with James Allen whom we stalked down the pit lane too!!! HURRAH! |

There is a reason for that, Mr Fan - they're SHYTE!! We stood in the bigtop and heckled their BS for as long as we could - there were quite a few of us at it in the end - we'd never heard such a load of dross Thankfully they brought Thin Lizzy back on stage and EJ joined them about 10.30
I have to say though, we were VERY disappointed in the atmosphere at the concert - apart from a few young Irish blokes we'd met in the hostility suite earlier in the day, pretty much everyone stood round like idiots grrr... we did our best to liven them up, and I think Invader almost started a fight at one point Anyway, a great day - free tickets, free food and drink in the hostility (lobster and smoked salmon, no less!), access to the pitlane grandstand, some wonderful little model Jordan cars which were acquired during luncheon (), we met Jarno Trulli and Jason Plato, and shouted a bit of abuse at Matt Neal! We also had a trip round the museum and a concert - can't be bad! Finally got home at 4pm this evening Thanks go to Carrie for getting the tickets in the first place, and allowing us to come along - really appreciated. BTW, Mr Fan, we were NOT drunk in the Collection (OK, Invader was...) - we were simply having a grand time. |

I can totally vouch that Carrie was sober. I can't remember what was funny but everytime we looked at each other we just couldn't stop giggling. Haven't laughed that much for a while, my sides were hurting!
Good time had by all. Much appreciated, Carrie for thinking of us. I would never ever see the race track if I was a VIP guest at every race meeting! |

I don't really think anything was funny, unless it was the mention of chimneys on Williams and the need for Fred Dibnah On the other hand, I think at that point in time we could have found anything funny.
I was just getting annoyed that everyone else in the place seemed to have the attitude of 'it's a museum, that means we've got to go round in complete silence' The question now is how do we get ourselves VIP tickets for the Touring Cars |

I notice that Dan has nothing to say on the matter - is he keeping a low profile in case he has to pay you back the money that you bunged the bouncer at the concert to get him in ?

Not forgetting the diesel money...
I also think we should start a whinge box - along the same lines as a swear box... |

A whingebox could end in the bankruptcy courts.

That sounds like one hell of a money making opportunity Craig

Just look at it this way, you've all been fantastic with everything that's been going on the last couple of months, so I guess this turned out to be a small way to say thanks

Out of sheer embarrassment following your escapades in the Donington Collection on Sunday evening, Dan has probably changed his name, left the country and set up 'Big Mama's Funhouse' in downtown Manila.
Or something like that. |
