It does not look like I'll be needing the Snow Plow to clear the drive this Christmas, meantime big thanks to everyone who has made TNF such an enjoyable experience this year, particularly those who have kindly contributed, tickets, passes, answers to questions for my "Gettin a li'l psycho on tyres" blog and those who have read the blog.

As always the best bit about TNF have been the meetings with fellow members be they at Race Retro, Qwara, Prescott, Castle Combe, Brooklands, Goodwood, Silverstone, Bourne, TNF Herts Film Show, NEC, Kilton Inn or Kings Cross Station.

Seasons Greetings and best wishes for the New Year to all TNFer's far and wide !

Why does Santa have three fields ?

Or just three hard rows, perhaps?

This is starting to sound like the annual tipplers' convention so I might as well add that I've just laid in a few bottles of another fine Coopers product for Christmas;

LittleChris would like to say that he's laid in a few bottles of Timmy Taylors Landlord, Fullers Bengal Lancer & Wychwood Hobgoblin, primarily to combat the snow, of course !!

All this beer talk..torture . I have been allergic to beer for years - tragic when you think I grew up drinking filth like Brew Ten and Tartan and now we are awash with lovely real ale and 'not a drop to drink'. Thank God I can drink wine and whisky(mine's a large Laphroaig please).
So yes Season's greetings and all that - can't wait to get all this Xmas stuff out of the way so I can start the countdown to next season - Silverstone Calssic already booked and lots HSCC stuff planned. And a trip to Prescott; and Santa Pod too- I need to reacquaint myself with heavy metal thunder(copyright Steppenwolf 1903 )

That should do it Little Chris. An impressive line-up. I was just wondering, at what point in the day will it cease to matter who brewed what? :drunk:

If the end of the world is nigh is it too late to bid on the 105 alfa on ebay or should I wait till the 22/12/12?



Well it didn,t end which is a positive outcome but slightly embarrassing if your a Mayan. So seasons greetings to all and looking forward to another year of enlightenment from T.N.F.
Cheers from the Sunshine Coast Qld. Where we,re praying for rain.

A bit wet and miserable here in the New Forest too...but at least Santa doesn't need to use the roads or canal (sorry, rail) network tonight!

Wishing everyone here on the Forum a happy and peaceful Christmas and and all the very best for 2013. :wave:

Looks like another great Skid Solo story in the making, or have you gotten away from it all far enough to complete the fabled Vol.4 ?

I would wish you all a Merry Christmas from warm and sunny Malta but I'm in wet and murky north east London. Still, all the best to everyone, wherever you are.
