I understand there was a certain "couple" on here a year or two back.

Apart from their inner circle of gullible "peeps", I believe it was generally acknowledged that they weren't all they appeared to be.

Apparantly their sweetness and light posts tended to hide a somewhat different agenda which could be found in their private messages.

Let's hope that the new Ribnet shepardess is as jolly nice as her (abundant) posts make her out to be.

Were you at the receiving end of some of these PM's then?

Ahh okay Tim so you are worried I'm a wolf in sheeps clothing - cool - never been accused of that before

I can tell you what I really am though .... someone bitten by the RIB bug and keen to exploit her new hobby as much as possible. I'll tell you what hubby thinks I am ...mad - he also knows when I pick up a new hobby I do throw myself in 110% sometimes to the detriment of everything/everyone else - so like you he's not too keen on my new found passion.

I don't think I have any hidden agendas - unless persuading those with bigger boys toys to let me go out for a spin - or to persuade Matt that I'd like to sit in when he's trying to take off in his new toy - thats probably it in all honesty.

I've met a few of the guys on here - in the flesh - and I think they should be able to vouch for my insane love of all things RIB related - you included

Fingers crossed you give me time to prove you wrong - although not sure how long that will take - maybe a beer at the next gathering might help alleviate the concerns

Crackin' idea, if Lord Lucan will lend you Shergar for the trot down from Mayfair.

It would KY, ask him to be Guest Speaker on your first night. You'd be guaranteed a record turnout

Oh holier than thou are we so grateful for your condescension to join up with others - as Willk says - Shergar and Lord Lucan willing!
