I gave this forum address to Chip Foose !
I am not on first name terms with him, but I keep meeting him - last time I gave him a card with a couple of URL's for his to check - one is my cncpics.com and the other was this place.

I once served Roy Savadori when I worked at Chaters' motoring booksellers.....
And my missus owned an Ital that once belonged to Ray Reardon's sister-in-law!

I've got a photo of me next to Rowan Atkinson's purple mclaren F1 somewhere. I played his son at rugby (i made sure i nailed him at least once to I could show off ) at my old school and he turned up to watch in it! I would welcome him here!

I do hope if we do have any famous members, that they stay firmly behind their user names as I like talking with everyone here without any pre-conceptions of who or what they are.
Oh, and the Mac I'm currently typing on was used to produce Craig david's last album........ ;D

I am Nick Stahls mortal enemy and Adam Wests colleague in the fight against Stahl. Here is the true story:
Went to a geekfest where Nick Stahl and Adam West were signing autographs (amongst others). I was getting Stahls autograph for a friend called Rachel. I walked up to him and asked "could you make it out to Rachel please". He replied "you don't look like a Rachel" and gave me a bit of an odd look. I said that it was for a friend who couldnt be there.
Later that day I queued up for Adam West. I looked over to Stahl and he was giving me quite a big "evil". Now this was about 2-4 hours after the "you don't look like a Rachel" incident. After Mr West had signed my picture he yelled "go get em Luke". I can only assume that this meant "go kill Nick Stahl". And the rest is history...
In conclusion, Adam West and I are sworn enemies of Nick Stahl. I have been known to randomly shake my fist in the air, glance skywards and yell "STAAAAAAHHHHHHHLLLL!!!!!" on occasion.

i was chatting with kerry katonas (she of norma snockers and iceland fame) husband ,mark the other day,he popped in with his new lambo gallardo to see what we thought of it as he describes me and my boss as 'real petrol heads' , she was off shopping and he was getting bored so he came over for a tea and a natter.other than it being the wrong colour for a lambo (silver) its a nice car. last week we had some guy called Anelka's car in. And this abortion turned up today,apparently its owned by a footie player called el-hatchoo? the wheels are just plain wrong but wait whats that? yes its got neons underneath and a halfords bass box in the boot. next week micah richards new motor turns up and we have dave 'mr prodrive' richards brothers car in for work. and a few weeks ago i had a good chat with yvette 'ghostbuster' fielding about derek accorah ,she has some funny tales to tell about him as he's not all he's cracked up to be. when i was on the set of life on mars i didnt recognise georgia taylor who used to be toyah battersby in corrie despite standing next to her for 20 mins,but i did have a quick chat with john simm over lunch ;D
