Merry Christmas Everyone!

Of course, I mean to include everyone so I am also wishing a happy holiday season and a wonderful new year to all in the WRS.

This thread can be our own little rumble strip for the next week or two, so feel free to post on anything like what you did, what's stressing you out, or what sort of gifts you may have bought... or got. ;)

Again,
Happy Holidays!

I wish the best for all of you!
 
Well so far in our house it's been a pretty cool day, all the kids seem happy with the gifts from Santa, and the house has been in the worst mess in ages,I cleaned up the front room alone about 3 times today and the mess keeps re-appearing :D ah well! thank god it's only 1 time per year 👍

Hope everyone had a great day also ... have fun digesting all the goodies :sly: I think it'll take me until next christmas to burn off the dinner I just consumed :crazy: .... my tummy is swelling like I just ate the back tyre off a GT40 race car :D
I got a litre bottle of Southern Comfort from my Dad for Christmas so looks like no racing or much at all for me tonight :cheers: :cheers:

Take it easy guys and enjoy the rest of the festive season 👍
Laters.
 
SO far so good.Going to go over my sisters house sometime later tp pickup my presents and play with my nephews a bit.Not very exciting but...meh. Happy holidays to everyone and a happy Newyear. :)
 
Looking forward to getting a MaxDrive very soon 👍. So far I've got money and and really nice Mp3 player. Merry Christmas everyone :cheers:.
 
Hey ODP!

Glad to see you still make it back every now and again. :D

Also glad to hear that you are in a good enough mind to be wishing other people a merry christmas. 👍

Also, thanks every one else who put down their thoughts and wishes for a happy holiday season.

Right back at you. :sly:

btw, I got a new watch. :D
(really cheap sucker, but it's exactly what I wanted)
(also some clothing and a few books I will never touch. :crazy: :lol: )

Any way,
Till next time,
-Kent
 
Well maybe it´s already too late but merry christmas for everyone.

Today was a very hot day ( i live in the South of Brazil) and i got a new surfboard from my parents, also money from my grandfater wich i spent buying stuff for my PS2 :D
Metal Gear Solid 3, Flat Out and Medal of Honour : Call of Duty.
 
Spent time with my family... ate some dinner and what not.

Got a bunch of tools that I need, and a heater so I don't freeze my ass of working on my car - my garage is not heated :(

Oh... and car insurance for 6 months... which is a god send.

Also got to watch the Race of Champions... NASCAR Drivers are funny :D and Loeb lost in a WRC car to a guy that had never driven one... >_< WTF!? OH well, I still got to laugh at the NASCAR drivers.
 
Well, my day started pretty early playing my new copy of FIFA 2005 :)

At midday, I went to the hospital to visit my grandfather because of a small stone he expelled 3 weeks ago, making damage to his prostate and if God wants, he'll come out before New Years Eve after the removal of his prostate.

Then spent almost all day at hospital with a friend that was with me at school since first grade, she had a cyst in her ovary and it was about to become cysts in both her ovaries, but gladly after operation, she is ok and just resting, and soon she'll travel to Florida to complete her studies at FSU

And after a long day, at night, I had dinner with my family, such a long time we haven't had a dinner like this one, ah Christmas, I love it, and with my birthday at 24th it just gets better hehe :)

Well hope you all had a wonderful christmas and have a very Happy New Year, God bless you all :)
 
Glad to hear you all are having a good time. :D

Heated Garage! :lol:
Which area of beverly hills are you used to? ;)

Also, hope the friend & grandfather do well with their recoveries.
Saying a prayer for them now. :bowdown:

As for me...
I got the best present possible... Something heinrichII mentioned... A great dinner. :D

On that note, I'm happy to see you made it back around to the weekly, feel free to join in at any time.

Until next time,
:sly:
 
Happy christmas everyone!

Like Ron said the house has been a right mess, still is in fact :D

The kids were happy with thier presents, an X box, a camera phone and a 256mb MP3 player and simpsons monopoly being the main attractions 👍
I got some gold & perfume something I'm always happy to receive :)

My mum wasted her money and bought me a 'talk it type it' program for the PC :lol:

Got the in-laws round for dinner today, doing a roast pork and all the trimmings, a big bottle of wine to drink with the mother in-law :D And I'll try and not eat so much chocolate today :sly:

Now I better make a start on that dinner! See you guys around :)
 
Merry Christmas everyone. :)

@ icemanshooter23: I'm going to buy a maxdrive or something similar soon since I'll have to prove all my winning times. :sly:
 
Ok, my garage isn't even insulated or anything... and heated garages are fairly common in new homes when you have months where the high is never above freezing... people kinda like having a warm car. Either way, it will be nice to be able to feel my fingers while I am working :p

Maxdrive does sound like a good idea... keep my games from getting deleted by... drunks... or me... or ghosts or whatever else my bad luck brings my way :indiff:
 
Got my Max Drive 👍. I hope I can get it to work to get my replay of this weeks race 👍. Even though it's small, it probably was my best gift this year.
 
Hows that MaxDrive working...? I couldn't get into town before Best Buy closed :( So I have to wait till later today now.

Oh... and Kent, I just noticed I'm listed as Division One on the WRS List... I coulda swore you told me I was Division Two... and consider how my correct time got me about 8th in Division Two with the R34 at Cote... I'm kinda confused :scared:
 
Woo, MaxDrive is cool... backed up my data... its safe from Drunks now :D And now I can upload replays. But... does the forum host small files, or can someone tell me where I can host small files?

And Kent... the PM system is really dead now, and I'm still confused about my standing in if I'm division One or Two?
 
Hi Azuremen...

I will stick you back into division 2.

Gotta realize that you put me in a odd situation thanks to that cote run.
It earned you an instant div1 status.

Now that the situation has be fully explained I will move you back into div2.

Not to worry. :D
 
All right.. I was a little worried :scared: considering how much faster those guys are...

But no more confusion!! I have MaxDrive now... and a strong desire to avoid typos :dopey:

And this week is gonna be hella fun... I've been playing with MR cars all week.. seeing what I can use in the Pro MR cup... can almost beat the GT40 with an almostly fully tuned MR-S in the qualification.. and I can do with a stage 2 Turbo MR2 GT-S... so this should be fun.
 
Hey all!

Just wanted to drop in and say happy new year!

Right now it's about 6:30pm my time, so there are about 5 hours left before 2005.

However, once it comes around I will probably be as happy as ever.

So I would like to spread the cheer!
I hope all of you have a nice year in '05.

And remember, just like adult swim, the WRS is going with "No Jive In '05!"
 
4:30 here.... not a good day at all... more or less forgot I had to be at work half an hour early.... and now I have no job.

So, I get to find, or attempt to, a new job. Great fun :indiff:

Just goes with the rest of my luck these past months.

Still, at least I get to spend the day with friends and what not, that is good.

A new year, a new life. Thats my motto I think...
 
Happy new year :cheers:
Here in Europe it is already 2 hours 2005

Best wishes to all.
 
Hey all 👍 1.07am 1st Jan 2005 here in the UK and just a tiny wee bit pished :)

A happy new year to all my mates online and that includes Clint Kentwood :lol: :lol:

All the best for 2005 :cheers:
 
Still 2004 here. Happy New Year to all you WRS'ers 👍 :cheers: Tried driving with that crappy DFP over the last few days. Set the MOMO back up until GT4 is around. Oh well.
 
Yeah happy new year everyone.

@ Mr P: I'm liking the Clint Kentwood patter!!

I'm surprised I can still type after so much Guinness. :)
 
Hey all. :D
Thanks to the quick replies.
Made for some interesting reading after only a few drinks away from the screen. :lol:

Red Star over here. ;)
Heineken that is. :lol:
Well... only 8:56 here, so maybe I will be back before midnight.

Also, big 👍 to all the clint fans lol.

Lotus has seen this one I think, but the rest of you might not have...
Not exactly clint, but still not too far off (the beard that is ;) )...

:slygoodlookingdevil:
