Re: The Watches Thread

Racist. ;)

I’ve been lusting after a explorer ii (polar) for the last year or so but the magic spare £6k is proving difficult to come by!

Re: ....and we're back as OV9

Their best writers left with the remainder/new recruits typing out mundane copy. A decent number of the road tests are of (to me) narcolepsy inducing warm hatchbacks or saloons and most of their Evo fast fleet are dull as ditchwater. Think that pretty much sums it up. Oh an if you have to have a rac...

Re: ....and we're back as OV9

Yes, now we only need to be worried about being sued by Steve McQueen's estate and Martini ;) I suppose my only real criticisms would be that the image really needs to be landscape to work at the top of the forum and I suppose it does look a bit like Steve M's hand and the number 09 unless you know ...

Re: ....and we're back as OV9

Easy enough to change the logo...but credit to Seb who sent me the cleaner one so if he (or anyone else) fancies creating something fresh. I've had a few "cease and desists" in my time on the Lupo forum so I've already been there and done that ;) I think we should go with something more d...

Re: ....and we're back as OV9

I'm not saying they don't have the resource, just the inclination to bother. Particularly as what's the loss? This place doesn't have a negatively correlative effect on their revenues so any legal action would be commercially pointless in all likelihood. Again, I'm not saying we shouldn't avoid what...

Re: ....and we're back as OV9

I posted this on the FB thread, but it bears repeating here: on the subject of the OV9 logo, it probably ought to be freshly drawn rather than blatantly nicked and reversed. We don't want issues with the new forum for a minor bit of copyright infringement. +1, that’s the last thing Matt would need ...

Re: It's the weekend

Generally recovering after working until 2am each night this week :(

Spending some time with the toddler. Might get up early on Sunday and take a drive through Kent and down to the South coast now the weather seems to be brightening up a bit.

Re: And it's gone.

Evo mag? Exactly - fvck ‘em in the ear.. :lol: @GG - Who has been the most recent regular poster after me nearly 2 years ago? Genuine question. I expect there haven’t been many (if any). we only pick up 8 or 10 new regulars every year. Hopefully we’ll keep going That many? Nowhere near that many.
