pugwash Posted May 6, 2007 Share Posted May 6, 2007 hey paul and welcome can't quite beleive that you are the 3656 new member- have we just had a huge jump in membership. Some tips 1. At every oppotunity suggest that SimonR approaches Scorpion racing for tips on how to improve his business 2. Let Moglite know that you like rubber (especially the type with zips) 3. if you are thinking of buying a winch make sure you ask whether electric or hyrdaulic are better 4. Ask often if you should replace your V8 with a tdi 5. realise that as a forum we are desperate for money and suggest that everyone approaches either LRE or scorpion for sponsorship or perhaps ownership of the site. 6. realise that there are some really sarcastic buggers on here, but we are mostly (barring Honiton Hobbit) a friendly and normal bunch. i'm sure you'll fit right in.
