Happy new year. 2008 here we come


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Id just like to wish you all a happy new year.

2007 has been quite an eventful year for me and not entirely in a good way. But as a member on here said to me recently (Ryno) i have my health so all is well. Even so im looking forward to a new year and hopefully better than 2007.

Here are some pictures of my last year.

Waving goodbye to my Fantastic first Starlet. :(

right a quick photo diary of my 2007.

i turned 21 this year and for my present i got the chance to drive several awsome cars.........

2006_01110040.jpg

2006_01110077.jpg

saying bye bye to big steve the green n/a, which in the end didnt go far as my little brother liam brought it!

2006_01030056.jpg

i then started the epic journey to newquey, which unfortunatly for me was when the floods happened, i was stuck in the car 26 hours as the motorway was closed while i was on it! heres a pic of liam and my dad looking slightly pissed off on the motorway

Picture005-2.jpg

and heres how the motorway looked

Picture006-1.jpg

but we stayed strong and finally made it as far as plymouth heres some pics.

Picture033.jpg

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxPicture028.jpg

we then journyed on to reach our destination newquey..........were many good times were had, some of the stories arnt really suitable for here though!

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxPicture10.jpg

and on the way back from newquey we made a detour to swansea so i could pick up this................my new baby

kd076.jpg

the end few months have been all about work changes, as i gave up my job of 4 years to pursue a new caraer..... rebuilding at midland turbo.

i could have posted up endless pics of drunken nights out! lol. but i thought i would keep it civilised!

2008 looks promising and i would like to wish everyone all the best!

I had my GCSE's this year and got the grades I wanted and got a place in the college I really wanted to go to :D

Car wise..

Earlier this year my brother's SR was kinda my project as I use to always work on it.

One of my first proper paint jobs:

Happy new year UKSC!!!

2007 saw me finally find the woman of my dreams in every sense of the word, she just makes everything better, end of!!!!

admittidley my health has been quite bad recently and it had a scare or two, but all in all 07 has been pretty good, into final year uni and the car is so much further along than she even was at JAE 07 and there's STILL a 'to do' list the length of my arm!!!

07 saw me make some very special new freinds in rob bower and his mrs, in Nath and his wife alex who are just the most awesome 4 people u could ever hope to meet, and a few others, and it saw the growth of many older friendships that have become much more than just random folk on the net, Rick, SiCaln, Joz, Shelly, Rich, Jay...the list is nearly endless...all i can say to each and every UKSC member that i have had the pleasure of talking to over the past year is THANK YOU!!! all of u!!! for everything!!!!! u are a truly amazing group of people!!!!

I hope that 08 is a fantastic yr for u all!!! i hope to nail my masters degree, so i have alot of work to do, and to continue to work on the car to new heights of uberness, and i hope and pray that i will see u all at JAE this yr all being well!!!!!!!!!!

Happy new year to u all!

Phil.

Don't really know what to say about 2007

Isn't really outstanding in any one way, other than getting engaged to the lovely Jo (aka Joey) and having a great time at JAE :)

Here's to a good 2008 though, have sorted most of the niggles with my car, am enjoying life now, going out far more than I ever used to, still going well with Jo, and starting a new job this month :lol:

Happy New year guys and gals!!!!

I've not been on much over the past month or so with work and a brief spell in hospital over the holiday period but i hope every one had a good one!!!

The past year has been a pretty slow and boring on for me not really done much to the car still got a few bits ain the pipeline for this year though. Work has really started to get boring!!!

JAE2007 however did see me making new friends phil and mark (nanglebadger and bro) and nath and alex (starletnath and his wife) and loads more along the way. Thois was prob th highlight of my year and i hope to meet some more great friends at JAE2008.

Looking forward to 2008 i hope to make this a better year am now on the look out for a new job and will be looking at buying a house at some point over the next 12 months.

As for the car we will just have to wait and see!!!

All the best for all UKSC members new and old!!!

Rob
