You'd get less for murder .......

veeten, you're a month ahead of me on every level :p :

Thinking about it, nothing much has altered for me. Same house, same land near enough, same partner (although I've come close to strangling him at times :p : ), same interests. Only difference is less going to the car racing (working weekends now) and being my own boss.

Almost 6 years here ....

Lots of things have changed, I have my own business, I live on my own, I have lost 80 kg...

I still have the same car and like motor racing though.

It'll be 8 for me in October :eek:

Back when I joined I was allowed 1 hour at the weekends and the forum would take a while to load up on dial up, now I have my own laptop with wifi in my room and spend ages waiting for HD videos on youtube to load :rotflmao:

I have been here on and off for 4. Since then I have moved 3 times, lost a brother, lost a father-in-law, have had 3 jobs (downsized twice in 2 years!)travelled over 300000km behind the wheel, fought off my ex in court once, sold 2 houses, and remained with the most marvellous woman I could imagine as a partner and friend.

I have also had 4 different cars, of which one I have actually said I am paying for, gave up timing and scoring after 21 years and still love my racing, even if I cant get to see it as much....

I've been here over 7 years now as well. Been a lot of changes in my life.

Have competed in over 150 rallies including WRC. Changed jobs a couple of times, still living in the same house though.

coming up 8 years for me.

The difference between this forum and a life sentence is choice.

Same house, job, changed a few cars,

It's nearly 6 years for me. In that time:
Ive sat my a levels
been to university
got a job.
When I first came here my life was in a pretty bad place which I managed to repair.
The one thing I've never managed to do is escape from this forum.


Heres hoping for the next few years to bring good things.

I'll have to post to see how long it is for me, hang on.

Edit: Coming up on 4 years, in that time i've got a degree, got a job, changed job and got a career, been made redundant. I've also had 2 cars, watched Exeter City at Wembley (twice), seen Exeter City get promoted and begun actually doing some motorsport.

Oh and I've seen a fair few forum members come and go too.

Four years, and a half :)
- I bought my home
- I drive a new car, instead of an old one
- I am not as happy as I was
- My best friend died on me...
- I have changed my girlfriend for a new one, allthough it is an older model, it has a higher RAM-memory, and some extra features, but it is at times not as userfriendly as the old one.
- My father died on me...

well, well :)

When did you join exactly, Danny boy? I joined in February 2001 as well - 13th to be exact.

I have:

Done by GCSE's
Done by A-Levels
Got a 2"2 in Psychology at university
Had fun times until 2007
Met my girlfriend in 2007
Moved house twice
Live away from home now
Owned two cars
Had four jobs - only one full time!
Being doing last job for 2 and a half years now


Unbelievable length of time when you think about it. When I joined I was literally still at school, now I'm almost 24.

Always, Eki. But I don't scratch it, don't want the scab :p :

Bezza's all growd up :)

Without looking at my own profile it was the 15th I think Bezza. I was only a couple of months out of school and days away from starting university.

I've been here since November 2000, and I can't even begin to describe how different my life is since back then. I was still at school! Since then I've been to and graduated uni, lived away from home and now back again, living with the parents is just about bearable but it's all about the money...

Mark could so easily have banned me when I joined and he wouldn't have thought twice about it! And if he had, then I'm 99.99% sure that I would not have been to any of the many foreign events that I've been to or any of the other places that I've spent most of my spare time and money travelling to. It's incredible how that's changed for the better and it's been great to meet so many brilliant people from here as well at various points, from rallies to touring cars to of course the karting!

But in particular I want to thank Mark for all the great work he has done for everyone :) But also Pino (for the wonderful food, hospitality, company and Italian-English :D ), RallyBasher (who had to drive himself home one evening :s tareup: ), DonJippo (for organising all the great trips in Finland and Sweden), AFF (for the Jaskan special ;) ) and Daniel (for arguing about anything and everything and being right every time).

But eight years, eh? Can't believe it :)
