REVIEW - Arthur's Seat Cruise

Post by Slither »

Well it turned out to be an interesting day 8O
First of all i'd like to thank the weather man for being wrong :lol:

Seriously though, it was a beautiful day for the cruise down to rye and eating fish and chips while being attacked by seaguls was awesome *looks at Mil* :lol: I was looking forward to meeting up at Arthur's Seat but we had to make a "quick departure" after James met a nice man in his SS Comodore, Sorry James :oops:

It was good to catch up with everyone and thanks to all the people who came, hope we all got home safely :wink:

Big thanks to Ethan & Mil for organizing the meet/cruise or what ever it calls. The weather was great, the sky was clear, & so does the water (my missy keep saying that on the way back 8O )

It was fantastic to catch up with you all, & here’s my favorite moment for this cruise

*Scracy & I sandwich the Ferrari, with Mil wanting to bite its ass off, man that old bloke probably sh*t himself & thought we were going to rob him ahahahaha

*Mil try to do a "runner" at the fish & chip shop, mate u still have to pay for the chips even if you going to feed the seagulls

*That stupid SS commonwhore, tail gated me then decided to pull James over, bloody pigs. James we know is not your fault.

*On the way back I turn into the wrong side of the Rd with James following 8O Damit, once again sorry James. Dam we were lucky :D

I post up the link to some pics once I upload them.

I cracked up laughing when I realised we were going the wrong way down a one way street... damn divided lane roads... I wondered why that guy in the Magna looked at me funny :D :roll:

Half the points on my license gone, just like that 8O :cry:

Next cruise I am taking the Lancer :(

Its good to hear people enjoyed themselves. Unfortunately due to some events that occured as we were leaving Rye we werent able to do a sprinted run around Arthurs Seat :(

I feel really bad for James being pulled over by the pigs. Better luck next time mate :wink:
btw, new colour looks great :D

and Kev, I thought I had paid for those damn chips!!! The girl behind the counter didnt take down my order properly! oh well, at least i enjoyed my meal in the nice warm weather :D :P

and Ethan, I still got a red mark on my leg from that seagulls beak!! :( :P

Hahahhah Mil, i did warn you that you guys going to get attact by the seagulls, & you thought i was joking haahahahaa. Chips & seagulls don't mix, especially when there's a human between them

Ohhh i just remember few more favorite moments heheeh

*After Toni did her "grand entrance" & then ask who were in charge, we all said no one :D

*Those two chicks in a Excel that took photos of our FTO & then ask us "where is the FTO fan club" Mil you missed out mate 8O

*Ethan"s had a "higher" standard after that hahahaha

Well, first Mr. Bacon told me to pull over, which I did, then he motioned me to park round in a side street, did that too. Then when I opened my window he casually told me that I had gone through a red light when I turned off the main road (he told me to do it, I was just obeying him :evil: ).

3 demerits

He also said I was travelling over 75km in a 50km zone *cough* BULLSHIT *cough* (which is automatic loss of license) but he was nice enough to say I was only doing 73 :evil: What a sweety.

3 demerits

Next meet when we have a BBQ, can someone buy some pork sausages? It might help to take some of the pain away knowing I am eating dead pig. :twisted:

James i bring some pork chops, bacons & pork sausages.

Theres few points I need to point out.

*Porky was speeding at the first place, plus he hasn't got a radar detecter, so he just guessing, & if he use his speedo as an indication then is load of crap. Because in order to catch up to some one doing 50kmph, he have to do a lot more then 50kmph, especially in a short distance or he will be for ever behind you.

*Porky can't use the 2 second rules to estimate as there was other cars between us, i remember there was a ute & a 4wd.

*Porky was tailgating me which I feel Intimidated, & I fear the danger for my life & the other as it might cause an accident. Therefore I have the right to either speed or slow down out of the situation.

So if you want to take this to court then you have a pretty good fight in your hand. Hey the worst thing can ever happen is that you still lose your point, & pay for the fines but the porky will have to do sh*t load of paper work hehehe :wink:

You also have the option of pay your fines in installment, which mean you can pay like $10 a month for 20 mths. Like i said in the cruise, know you rights & excerise it.

I'd be challenging the red light bit at the least, sorry but that's just harsh to get you for that, i mean you pulled over and he asked you to go into the side street :roll:

I paid the fines that night online, I am going overseas early next year and really don't want a court case to ruin my holiday :(

If you see a FTO that appears to be driven by a granny, wave to me :roll:
