What? You mean he takes it up the ar...... oh, I get what you mean.
Well, while you boys are fighting it out up front, I'll be trundling along at the back, generally being as awkward as possible.
Lets just hope the weather stays good so we don't HAVE to use the karting facilities - I know I'd much rather be driving on the Ring than on some piddly inside track.
Fingers crossed, eh?

some pistonheads type ring trip this weekend was closed due to snow. And apparently Schwedenkreuz is roadworks at the moment, along with a few other parts of the track. Here's hoping the snow's gone in 4 weeks and 2 days!

Unless we're really unlucky, its a late Easter this year, so the snow SHOULD be gone.
Last year was looking pretty dodgy when there was still snow covering the track the week before we were there.
IMHO its pretty silly of PHers to arrange a trip to the Ring in late winter and hope that track is open/driveable.
PS Four weeks and one day until I'm forced (!) to stay up drinking beer until you arrive, Chilled! Bummer.

It looks like Tim's convoying with me probably and if he ever pulls his finger out and books a train, I might be going for an earlier train (to coincide not avoid!) . Depends on the costs though.

Its a hard job, but someone's got to do it!
Anyhoo, my missus is pretty keen on schnapps, so she'll be only too happy to stay up. Obviously, Thomas will hate her as it means he doesn't get to chase after me this year.
I wonder who he'll go for instead - Ralston? Budgie? Richie? SBC?!?
Place your bets, ladies and gentlemen, on who Thomas will attempt to bot!
Maybe we should have a poll.... : )

Well I'll be on my own, but I don't think he likes me. But that was missus related. i did find the whole place abit disturbing as we were the only guest there for 2 nights.

Somewhere between the Germany version of the Bates Motel and Deliverance!
Alledgedly, a murder happened at the Berghotel in the distant past but we've never been able to verify that story...
