He knows the Manager really well via his partner, they are doing some promo work and offered him the job when he was out there, his only worry is the skis, he hates skiing lol his first and last attempt ended up with him hitting a tree :whistle:

Whistler sure isn't the place to learn. It has the highest vertical drop in North America.
It is the only place I ever skii'd and I made the acquaintance of every snowbank on the mountain.
Mind you, that was a very long time ago. Now I go to Whistler for the drive. :lol:

Very funny Gents :P
I was born in the sixties, my first car was an Allegro R reg bought for me by my daddy when I was 17, it had the massive cassette thing in it and was orangy red, I hated it, but it was new ..
The triumph I bought myself for summer, it got my friend and I a caution off the police, as we used to drive it in our bikini's ;)

Bet that was a sight worth seeing :yesnod: i assume you had all of the Bikini on when you were cautioned, they wouldnt do it these days, maybe stop you just to have a look. :woohoo: :bust:

If I were ever to get a project car to fully restore it would have to be the Triumph GT6.

(Mostly because the whole of the bonnet lifts off and you can get to every bit of it very easily!)

Nice Spitfire though, back in the days when cars sounded like cars!

Thought that might be a stag tucked behind but the indicators are in the wrong position and the bonnet seems too short.
