It's alright for some. I will be stuck here in Manchester where it is chucking it down with rain. Worse still when I get up to watch the race I will be all alone.
And I can't do Smilies. :-(

Right back at ya Catman ! D)

But I'm not sure I understand. Right about the time you mysteriously died and came back to life on the "other" BB, I remember there was some sort of competition to discover your line of work, as I think I remember you mentioning that you were involved that you were in "the" business. That said, if you are retiring, why are you continuing to follow each race around the world ?

Anyway, best of luck.

We are on our way to the airport in an hours time, thanks for the good wishes guys. I`ve just popped by to say thanks here and 10/10s.
Rogue. I have never been to all the GP in a season, and business has meant that I`ve often missed the action even when I`ve been at the track. Motorsport has been my main business, but I have been a fan since I was a kid and it has allways been an ambition to see a whole seasons races live. I don`t support any one team or driver, I just love the atmosphere. Also I can still use my business networking this year to gain free entry and pit and paddock access.
We are collecting a new yacht in a week or so and will spend the season at home in France and sailing the Med and Greek Islands between races before heading for the Indian ocean in the winter. We may get to OZ in it by next years first race, I may call by here when were back for Silverstone.
Good season guys, regards CATMAN

Good Luck Kitty Cat man. Even though you often speak silly nonsense about Schuey, I liked you anyway.

Any chance you could reveal who you really are now?????

Catman I hope you don't mind me giving you some advice for this years upcoming F1 season?.
1)Don't go on any boats.
2)Leave your car in a secure parking area with a 24hr guard.
3)Don't leave any documents in the car saying who you are....
:)
Damn,,, how come you get to go????.
Pop out to Hamilton Victoria and say hello to me whilst your there......Its only 350kms...

Pacman. :) :)
P.S.watch out for that F1,11 dump and burn on sunday......

Catperson, I wish you well, for if your life is anywhere near as good as you tell us it is, then you are indeed a lucky man.

Personally, I dont believe a word of it.

The only explanation would indeed be smoothes, that you are Mr Hill. That would explain your constant bitter attitude towards a certain superior driver.

Enjoy your retirement CATMAN. I can't help wonder if your death and resurrection last year focussed your mind to what is really important and encouraged you to pack in work and have fun.

Good luck and enjoy.
