Afternoon guys. Just got back from the first of two funerals this week, and it was a rough one. A lot of the people there were at Ryans and it brought a lot of tough memories back. This sh!t still continues to come past all too regularly and I found out yesterday that my pilot manager, who had gone into remission from breast cancer, has just found out it has come back. She is only in her forties. Life really does f*cking suck at times.

Tough times Ben, sorry to hear that. You only live once, that's why I bought my GTS this year. Could I afford it? Not really but what the ****, right?

You are not wrong Ian; it is a cruel insidious disease that cares not for the innocence of it's victims. At it's worst in the young, your Ryan was a brave lad and an example of courage and dignity. Medicine will surely one day beat and even eradicate it in some forms but in the meantime we can only comfort those touched by it as we are able to at the time. Hang in there and shout if there is anything we can do (beyond sponsoring Matt & Urby)...

Absolutely bang on Stuart.

Right!
It doesn't make any financial sence to owning the Maser, or my Stag.
Having weekend fun cars never do.

Morning all, good luck with the ISO audit Chris, you wanna employ my Mrs, she eats auditors alive!
Last early of the week for me, then a normal day tomorrow then Silverstone for the weekend. MotoGP this time. Danny Kent is leading the junior class and has really set the class alight with his consistency. He's had five wins and should be our first champion since Barry Sheen.

Morning all, woken up by rain so not ideal but I have so much work on, it will be good not to be distracted I guess.

Have a good one everybody
