The Mercure Lodge, no secret

Then why are people moaning about having to pay for it in advance I stayed there for 3 years, yes good location and in price range until they doubled the price per night the following year. Nice bar but paying £150.00 per night I'd like a seat in it rather than having to sit in the lobby as passing people wanted to nip in and have a drink with riders that were staying there. Hotel I have now I wouldn't change for the world, even go as far as saying the rooms are better than the Holiday Inn at a fraction of the price and still in a good location with excellent company for the weekend and the staff are so friendly it's all first name terms (or is that because once seen not forgotten )

That's how I feel each time you post on a GP thread

When we stayed there, the following year had to be paid in full at time of booking, a lot of hotels ask for card details to secure rooms, the Holiday Inn I agree is a great location but ...... an absolute rip off!

Wont be top when the football season kicks off but the figures are not bad for a sport some are calling "UN COOL!"

Where on earth do you keep plucking all these names from Kev are you going to be printing a book called a whos who of speedway?

That's a bit naughty Blazeaway

Welcome aboard Clrnc x happy posting x Trees doesn't like GPs or anything run by BSI/IMG so you should feel very privelidged (sp) that she has replied

why are there 4 names highlighted

Not sure how to word this, it's not meant funnily but I've never noticed the colour of peoples skins, is that silly? My little lad and I were out in the car the other day, saw these two lads one of which I recognised said to my lad there's soandso's brother there he said which one, I replied the one in the red t-shirt would of been so easy to say the coloured one, like I say I take no notice of the colour of peoples skin but I noticed his t-shirt

Think you need to get out more

I got the speedway and the following programme all on one recording, result really as wanted them both taped anyway

Well we wont know now will we, like I said we couldn't of done any worse with him in the team could we <<<< and that is an angry smilie as everyone seems hellbent on keep putting the lad down every chance!

You might be happy with 5th but I like to at least be in the final

And didn't they do well that, Tai was our Shining light from the Premier League

Chris I wish it still was England

I fail to see how Lewis could of done any worse than the riders we had in TEAM GB this year.

not the return of Tom Browns "Ring" where's Shannon when you need her!!!!!!

Nice posting thanks HarryA

Whoa one person calls them England (ok Stekkers had a slip of the tongue as well) and you get on your high horse ..... easy tiger!

Might have helped if they'd gone out and practised when they had the chance at Coventry, I'm led to believe Scott never went out for practise and a couple of others. The thing last year which was mentioned over and over again with regard to Middlo, was that they never had practise sessions meetings etc .... if you can't get the riders to practise before the WTC what chance do you stand getting them to race in a "practise" meeting I remember a meeting at Eastbourne where the opposing team (yep sorry it was Poole) both riders failed to finish a race, that resulted in an inquiry I think. Can't really remember why was it something to do with being able to ride a tacticle of some sort? and what was the outcome?

Mate don't you go on!!!!!

Oh god you just know Speedyguy wont resist having a dig again at Russell & Claire again now

http://www.speedway-forum.co.uk/forums/ind...=12621&st=0 http://www.speedway-forum.co.uk/forums/ind...=tyburn+gallows Just found these threads on the forum from years gone by, maybe of some use but reading through don't think we ever did find out anything concrete about Tyburn.

In that case will have to phone my Dad and re-check why the name as he helped mechanic for him at Canterbury and if that is right that makes him mega mega old and he really wont appreciate that
