Just a Happy New year to all Tipec folk. As well as those who haven't seen the light yet! :lol: I'm holding the baby tonight so getting this in early! Could stay up but will pay such a high price tomorrow going for an early night. :( Will be blowing the froth of a couple though later. :drunken: :occasion5: :occasion2: :occasion9: :occasion7:

Yes Happy New Year to everybody on here, it really is a nice place to be, and I've enjoyed another year here - long may it continue as I'm one of the 20% that is going to reach 100 years old.... and I'll probably still have an old Porsche.

I've recently been looking on the BMW forums for some tech advice, but have to say that those BMWs are so common (quantity not class) that there is no 'family feel' to the forums - they are just too big.

By the way, it's so nice to see a 'season's wishes' type post without an advertisement attached - carries a much warmer genuine message. Well done J.J. :wink:

Have a good night celebrating, and then let's hear about the unacheivable New Year's resolutions you all make in a drunken moment :lol:

Happy new year to all.

Not been able to use my Porsche much this year because we had an impending baby.
Had a baby girl five weeks ago and have to now get car and babycare all sorted out before the spring.

Car will be used as much as possible if baby Aimee allows

Happy New Year to all. I'm sitting here like a coiled spring, as I'm on call for all RBS buildings in Scotland. Being the bigger man and taking the hard shift does not seem like a good idea now. What time do you think I'll get called out?

Happy New Year everyone!

Went for a nice 7 mile run this morning (not in the car, in the physical sense of using my legs). Not many souls about this morning.

about 2 years ago we went to Loch Lomond on new years day to find some people water skiing.There was snow all around and everyone thought we were mad for being out there but the water skiiers seemed to be enjoying theirselves and we had a good morning out.Great stuff ! :D

Happy New Year everyone
Don’t know about you but I found 2010 to be pretty crap, and I am glad to see the back of it. I was having a cup of tea of Saturday morning when I thought it would be a good idea to get new Lotto ticket as it was the first draw of 2011 and the two lines I had already were purchased in 2010!!!!
Checked the numbers this morning and guess what? The two lines from 2010 nothing, the two lines from 2011 both won £10 :D :D what a good start to the year. So I went outside and started the old 944 which had been standing in the garage since the week before Christmas and it ran as sweet as a nut, things might be looking up? :D :D :D
Started to take down the Christmas lights at the front of the house and trod right in the middle of some cat sh*t which looked and smelt like it had curry the night before, looks like my good luck may have peaked to early :(
Wishing you all the best for 2011 :D
