Showing off?? We are talking about your driving skills, as opposed to your helmet...?

I'm in the same boat Bay, so we can be the grandad's at the back!

Don't really want to drive at 155mph while the missus is putting on her lippy...

Right boys!

Had time today to have a look at my E30 and discounting the bodywork (so what if thats a bt shabby.....) it all doesn't look as bad as I thought so if I can get it back on the road and MOT'd I'm coming along as it will be my only opportunity for a while due to numerous adventures already planned for next year!

Will be working hard these next few weeks too get a ticket on the BMW

Bay totally O/T - I presume you are an Actor by your post earlier, I'm studying Theatre at university soon and am quite involved in some local productions, do you do Theatre work or more film / television productions? Hope you don't think I'm being off the mark by asking I'm just interested thats all

Oh Porscha my love, I await Bailey's answer with interest.... must be related in some way to film..?? I reckon he was in a version of American Pie 2..

Incidentally Porscha, what sort of productions are you interested in?? Solo acting, or more of small group efforts?

Booforty - Whats that popcorn all about?!

Interesting, I thought American Pie was a bit trashy but it was meant to be of course. Was there a Brit Version or something?

Most actors have connections with or used to be in Theatre or are still involved in Theatre.

Anyway, I am interested in small group productions with my local theatre. The other thing none of you knew about me is that I'm a highly trained Clarinettist and get involved in alsorts of things with that locally (Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire)- not so much now though Enough of that lets get back on topic!

I don't think it was a Brit version, although I could be mistaken???
Oh, and what sorts of things to get involved in locally?!! Acting and playing the clarinet at the same time? (ps.. that's not a euphemism for something else is it?! )

If you really are that good, perhaps bailey might consider letting you blow on his flute, Porscha?!

Does everything on this forum have to end with innuendo?

Bailey - Sorry if I have offended you in anyway by asking!
