Nick555 Posted May 15, 2007 Posted May 15, 2007 After over a year, it looks like the move is happening at last! It looks like we'll be heading for Colby, anyone from that area? Any events planned for late summer, after the end of July? []
cupradave Posted May 15, 2007 Posted May 15, 2007 Hi Nick I live in Crosby, but anywhere on this Island is not far from anywhere else LOL [] As far as I am aware there is nothing major after Scoobyfest but we can always organise a meet, when you get here we can have a look at the motorsports calendar and get something sorted. So whats bringing you over here mate?
Manx minx Posted May 15, 2007 Posted May 15, 2007 Hi Nick, We are in Port Erin so no doubt we will see you out and about. Nix[]
Nick555 Posted May 15, 2007 Author Posted May 15, 2007 Hi CupraDave We've been planning coming to the island for over a year now - just been waiting to sell our house. We've moving for a better quality of life, friendly people, gorgeous countryside.. you know, the usual stuff! [] ManxMinx We'll look out for you!
cupradave Posted May 15, 2007 Posted May 15, 2007 You wont regret it mate, I have been here a little over 4 years now and love it It is a much slower pace of life here (except when in the Scoob LOL) which is great if you have a quite laid back personality. I can understand why some people say they feel trapped here with the island being so small but for me the compactness is half the attraction, not to mention the fantastic people and the amazing driving roads we have here [] So do you have work lined up already for when you get here? what is it you do?
graeme_stuart Posted May 15, 2007 Posted May 15, 2007 Welcome over at last Nick, when you get here that is []. Glad you got sorted with your house. Good luck when you get here.[] The last time i saw you was last year, looking for a pink pig in Douglas [] See you both soon hopefully. Cheers Graeme.

Nick555 Posted May 17, 2007 Author Posted May 17, 2007 Thanks everyone, we're really looking forward to making our home on the island! We found a pink pig - who did eventually bring us some luck! Sorry I couldn't meet your price Richard, but it's probably for the best if your still scaring the wildlife in your Scoob! A question for anyone..... My warranty is just about to expire & Subaru have offered extended warranty at £510 for 1 year or £1126 for 2 years. Any suggestions pls?

Cheers, JBK Welcome to the rock mate [] You have timed it right for scoobyfest and our major international rally in July. (Rally Isle of Man. ex Manx international) Its part of the British rally championship. Dates are on the forum somewhere. Have a look at the posts on scoobyfest etc to see what goes on. Richard our regional organiser will sort you out with info, when he gets time from filling vehicles with his petrol etc in Onchan.[] Cheers , Graeme.
