Do you think people that pick yellow are more outgoing so go to more social meets?

i think there going to think we have no personality of our own that we copy each other or we are not that adventurous enough to choose a different colour.
what i'm hoping is that they think
look at all those cars, are they ferrari's lol

I am probably coming to this providing I'm not in bad shape after the Wireless festival in Hyde Park on Saturday.
If anyone is interested in some nice 18" Wolfrace alloys, I could bring them too
And some amps/sub/speakers, and a 20vt headgasket set and head bolts

Hi peeps,
Well i'm back after a long absence. Had lots on not to mention cancer and having a tumor removed and chemo just over a month ago. Not out of the woods yet but literally just on the verge of the open park - few more steps so to speak. Anyway, this is an excellent venue and i votd yes but i wont know for definate until the day but i really do want to get out and go for a ride so hopefully i'll see you all there. (Incy i can def recommend this).
Just need to give my account details to someone for my membership to join up fully.
