  1. How did you smuggle your own drink in? There are notices everywhere saying no food or drink to be brought in but I didn't know this before we got there. Mind you if they had searched my bag I wonder what they would have made of the two Pigs Ears I'd got in there.
  2. There was plenty of time for all this before the match started and during the long delay waiting for the sun to go down. Have they all got weak bladders that they can't last a couple of hours? I drove from the Travel Lodge at Long Sutton, watched the match including 2nd half and then drove back again, all without the need to visit the loo. Drives me mad all this pratting about with long drawn out meetings.
  3. Weatherwatcher....really? You produce a list of British tracks including Weymouth, Hull, Isle of Wight, Newport, Exeter, Oxford, Reading.
  4. My pet subject - drives me mad all this hanging around and then having an interval. If they had to have one why not before heat 11 when there was yet another delay while the 2 Bees riders sorted their machines out following the first bend crash. It's not set in stone it has to be after that heat surely?
  5. Got to agree, although this was my first visit to Kings Lynn for while so I can't compare this meeting to any others this season. Mind you looking on the bright side heat 15 was a cracker and the meeting was actually on after a dodgy looking weather forecast so I'm happy tucked up in bed in my Travel Lodge room.
  6. That's not a sting. Bees to lose by a lot more than 8, but then I'm always pessimistic because it's a nice surprise if they do better.
  7. Any relation to Brady who rode for Peterborough on Sunday?
  8. Well, I'm on my own and I still enjoy it. (Can't count my companion as she goes to sleep.) It's easy to make friends at Speedway and I've made some already at Peterborough who sit in the row in front of me. We've even become friends on Facebook now.
  9. You weren't there were you spencebel? Sorry if I missed you. I bumped into Dave Burden, who is a Rye House fan, hobbling around on crutches. Hope the operation goes well Dave. Also Thomas's dad - get well soon Thomas - miss seeing you at Peterborough. Met Julie Blackwell (on the gate) for the first time and even recognised her from her Facebook photo which is quite an achievement for me.
  10. Chris 3rd, Scott 2nd in heat 3. Chris 4th, Scott 3rd in heat 13 so no. Someone is going to be pleased. Not according to my Birmingham friend as he said Danny would come last and he was right. He's a bit like Rory - don't use him in heat 15.
  11. Same as Sunday then with all the speakers off except the grandstand. I hope Mick has got a reduction in the rent. Didn't anyone else notice the tactical thinking going on in heat 10? If Danny hadn't come last in that heat Belle Vue would have had the chance to use Scotty with a Badger hat (as my friend calls it) on the best gate in heat 11. I guess what is done is done and we still got our 4 points. 3 points...... mdmc82.
  12. No start line girls? I hadn't actually noticed they weren't there. Agree with everything you've said though and well done to the referee for keeping the meeting running smoothly. The only downside was the tannoy playing up again and wasn't working for half of the match on the 3rd/4th bend. Enjoyable match with some good racing so well done to both teams.
  13. Hans off. Hopefully he is happy at Coventry as he has come back for a second season.
  14. Thanks. He should have a good career in Speedway if he stays level headed.
  15. He's not so bad these days as he doesn't commentate on the last lap (or two) of races. I've got quite used to him at Coventry this season with David Hammond in the commentary box. Well, he's given his views now and agrees with the meeting being stopped, but he would say that wouldn't he?
  16. That's the problem and what racers & royals is pointing out. It should say 25th.
  17. Not sure but I did spot Steve Shovlar and Starman. Greg Hancock looks more like Norman Wisdom every time I see him on T.V. lately.
  18. Bloody Poole again. Is there nothing they're not good at?
