Snow On The Way??

Postby Jim » Sun Feb 01, 2009 2:41 pm

Well it's the first day of Feb, it's fffreezing cold, and we may be getting some snow this week. Not what you'd call good scooter riding conditions! So just to cheer you up a bit, I've been trawling through the murky depths of my Photobucket album, and pulled out some pics from last year which I haven't posted on this forum before, but they all have one thing in common- the SUN is shining in all of them!

So, although last summer wasn't one of the hottest, we still had quite a few sunny days for some good scooter rides! Let's hope we get loads of good weather this year!

Cheerz,Jim

Gary-that photo was taken just after the big breakfast at the Ace Cafe, and you were just relaxing for a moment, and I think I wobbled the camera a bit, slightly distorting your slimeline figure! I've replaced it with the proper photo!

I hope you're gonna get your arse on that babe magnet of a scooter of yours a bit more often this year!

As club secretary, I sometimes have to put my foot down and be a bit firm about the forum rules. I will not tolerate people adulterating club photos. It's childish, pathetic and immature. Anybody who alters any photo in any way or form may face a possible ban from the club. I hope I have made this point very clear.

Anyway, here is the original photo.
