Well known locost, new guy
Alez - 9/10/03 at 08:06 AM
Greetings!!
Just to let you all know that, thanks to Jon Ison (who built it), and to Jasper, Chris Gamlin, Ned and uberf1end (who gave me invaluable advice), I
now have the beautiful yet mad quick IsonBlade in my backyard. I think most of you are aware that Jon had it for sale, in case you are surprised, he
thought it would help his new GT1 project, which is looking superb BTW.
Unfortunately, I finally had to pick it up last sunday, and couldn't make it to Newlands corner. I hope you all had a great time, and I hope to
meet you guys there soon. In the meantime, if you are in the Surrey area and see a small guy with a big grin in a silver and green locost, you know
what it is about 
Please introduce yourselves in English or Spanish, my mother tongue...
Cheers,
Alex

The chances of any of them lot being able to speak Spanish enough to have any kind of conversation with you is practically zero... 
Alez - 9/10/03 at 10:19 AM
Hi hippy!
...Which is why I'm trying my best to keep improving my english!
Cheers,
Alex

I don't think English will help you much either except for the words breakfast, tits, car, b0llocks and maybe one or two others... 
Alez - 9/10/03 at 10:54 AM
Those sound excellent to me!!

You should fit in just fine then

Blimey! I'm forgotten already!
Oh well, atleast I know where it lives!
...so, if anyone wants a spin in the 'blade just give me a call and we'll go down whilst Alez is out!
I'm sure he won't mind!
Cheers,
James

Ooops!! Hey, I know where you live as well!! You don't want the "Madrid Guys" going to your place for a visit, uh??
Hey, nice weather today, innit? I just went for a ride... to Tesco to get some donoughts and stuff to celebrate here in the company.
Anyway, I feel guilty for not mentioning you, I'm sorry mate!! I'll compensate with pints asap, I promise.

Buenas noches Alex, Es nuestro placer encontrarte aqui en el forum.
Digo buenas noches porque en este momento es la puesta del sol aqui en Phoenix, Arizona.
Sorry guys, just had to try out some of my rusty spanish. It's my first language too. Just haven't spoken it for decades.
Hasta luego,
Steve

Tu habla espanol como un vaca frances.
Not really, but I've been waiting to use that line since one of the teachers (NOT the spanish teacher) used on me at high school... and that was
a while back now.

Wow! The library of knowledge in this place is astounding! . Mierda!? I almost forgot that one!.
Try this one. La vaca francesca tomo' una mierda grande.
And thanks Alex. I vacillate between thinking it's good and thinking it's a piece of mierda. But it'll be nice.

Alez - 10/10/03 at 03:13 PM
Steve, a lot of people would pay a lot of money to have one like that and I don't think any wise man would say that's mierda. Oh, very nice
website as well, I'll take a more detailed look later on..
Jon, I know! It's just I'm trapped here in the office, I want to go for a ride. Now!
Cheers,
Alex
