Belated hello!

[Londonscottish]

Oh yes, THE dual carriageway - hope you have a good stay, the weather's great at the moment, I might go to the coast for chips later

The wife's taken the kids to Sherringham today. I'm working for a couple of days from the borrowed house near Rockland St Mary.

BBQ tonight and then off to the east coast tomorrow

It's Osbidian Black, which is black metalic (I may have spelt it wrong though)



Spot on

I'm wrong

You mean "Smaragd schwarz" which has a green flavour while I don't think Obsidian black would. Was this colour called "Blue-black" too. I don't think this car was greenish enough.

189U GREEN BLACK METALLIC
Was what I meant looking back. Looks Blue to me though. Our logbook says Black. Car has an identity crisis

I only know my colour because I aksed my local dealer for some tough up paint, and they checked with the VIN. They also had loads of paint samples hanging up on the wall - I didn't know there were so many colour options!

Hi Darren, yes I know Dereham - I'm from Thetford



Oh yes, THE dual carriageway

More specifically, I'm in Shipdham.
I often drive through Thetford heading to car shows.
Only drove through there on BH Monday, heading for Ipswich
The A1075 is a fantastic road when you get a clear run

Oh and don't forget THE dual carriageway isn't even fully dualled!

Yep, the 1075 is a good road! I used to ride my bike (R1) along there, and like the sharp ‘s’ bends between Watton and Shipdham

I don’t get to drive along there much, mainly now when we’re Motocross racing at Wretham, we drive into Watton to get Pizza’s, then drive back fast, so they’re still hot

That'll be the Ovington Bends - great fun, indeed! Immediately south of Watton has some lovely little S's through a mini woodland/copse area, too
What we lack in dual carriageways, we make up for in decent A- and B-Roads! A1088 is a good'un!

Speed Pizza deliveries - it beats Dominos delivering round Norwich on their mopeds
