Iconic Ride 267 Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 Gee, Sammy, did ya' see that!? What the heck was it? Never seen one of them 'round here before. You think that guy with the Chevy pick up truck has anything to do with this? Freddy, you know anything about this? How 'bout you, Phil? Eddy? Ever seen a spaceship like that in Newfie? Really looks kool. Bet it's a mis-shipment from Amsterdam. Being second is to be the first of the ones who lose. Link to post Share on other sites
Gold FFM Sparky 2,941 Posted October 10, 2012 Gold FFM Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 Been in St Johns for 5 days now. Still no sign of a blue Esprit...

73JPS 0 Posted October 11, 2012 Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 Been in St Johns for 5 days now. Still no sign of a blue Esprit... The likely reason for this is 640 km of highway between Deer Lake and St. John's... that, and a bunch of moose (meese?). "At home, I have a King Sized bed.

Al. 294 Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 Hey Sparky, Hope you are not spending took much time down George St?? I was in St. John's for 4 days last month so you have my sympathy although the natives (Shiela's anyway) were very friendly indeed. Will be spending a lot more time there come the spring as we are going drilling off NL for a while. I didn't think that BA flew there as we had to travel Air Canada direct from LHR and I'd much rather BA if for nothing more than keeping all the miles in one place. Not impressed on the way home when flight cancelled for 12 hours due to crew hours. (Not their fault I appreciate as stuck in Toronto). A LEGS man and proud to declare it!

It's only 8 hours ways! Every time I have the car parked in the drive... The local law enforcement, cycle around like vultures...waiting for me to make a mistake... Like break the speed limit!! You know I wouldn't do that I've been told by a member of the British car club that there is an S3 in Nova Scotia So, I will have to make contact for sure! Link to post Share on other sites
