Celica starvation in Yorkshire


Rad

Recommended Posts

Spent a lovely week in and around York (Fri 15th to Fri 22nd) with wife and kids!! pissed down for 5 days. One thing I did notice was a severe lack of Celica's, any I did see didn't have any club stickers visible. Do we have any members from York. I stayed near Stamford Bridge just off the Bridlington road about 8 miles outside York, even went to 'The Deep' at Hull and saw absolutely f**k-all in the way of Celica's. Do I smell or something????? Was using the wife's Mondeo all week so that was fun!!!! :D

Hi Rad

Hey, just be assured, your Celi' was the coolest car in the 'cinity

('cinity = vicinity for the elder generation)

Would have been assured but I was in the wife's Mondeo.

Still enjoyed it 'down' your neck of the woods (for me in Cumbria). The A1(M) is in a dire state at the mo - 50mph average speed cams everywhere!! - so decided to go towards Northallerton before getting on it to get to Scotch Corner.

Sorry, I didn't read the full post

:doh:

That's ok, We didn't have the room in the Celica for 4 of us plus luggage plus everything we bought. Geez the Mondeo was full to the gunnels as it was - with bags etc!! and that's massive.

Tell me about it, I was stuck on it last weekend. Loads of the exits shut off, and 50mph average speed camera everywhere. It's not even a short stretch of road either, seemed to go on forever. Thing is, even with the average speed cameras, I don't think the traffic flow ever got above 40mph :angry:

I'm sure I'll be back in Yorkshire sometime. I usually take the kids to different parts of the UK for a week, just depends were we fancy going, last time it was Shropshire (Shrewsbury) but just before I became a Celica owner and CCUK member so didn't take a lot of notice about Celica's

I'm a yorkshire lad but I don't have the club stickers on the car :sofa:

Get them fired on then!! I'm 38 and have them on - its not just for those in the 20's. Did take a little bit of flak from work mates but put it down to jealousy!! :lol:
