Hi guys, sorry I've not been around for a while but as I said in the "Where's bob.dent" thread (thanks for the PM Elite Pete), I've really been so busy at work as this is our busiest period due to so many government companies we deal with wanting to use up their budgets before the end of their financial year on 31/03/07. Amongst all that I've been in the process of investing in a new house in Barnstaple which has meant me driving backwards and forwards frequently and taking days off work. Anyway, more about that some other time, so how is everything? Haven't really had time to go through all my unread threads yet to catch up.
I'm still not going to be able to spend so much time on here as I used to at the moment until things ease up a bit, but I'll try to drop in as often as I can.
Cheers guys,
Regards Bob

Welcome back.

Nice to have you back Bob :y

Cheers guys, thanks for the warm welcome back :y :y
I'll be glad when things get back to normal. Still got to make another trip to Barnstaple for moving in to the new house - well not me moving in, just Mrs ex-bob.dent and youngest son and ex-ma-in-law. I think I've made the tram lines on the M4 and M5 about 2" deeper over the last few weeks not to mention boosting BP's petrol profits!! ;D

A nice part of the world to have a place. My parents used to have a 2nd home in Chittlehamholt just South East of Barnstaple. Really miss being able to go down to that part of the world of a weekend and chill out.. :(
Still bet the last part of the A361 Tiverton -> Barnstaple is fun in an Omega. Used to blat along there in my Westfield. Everyone else grinding up the hills, me still cruising along at at (mumble)MPH!

Hey Bob, great to see you back :y
Well I'm currently Omegaless, I wrote it off two weeks ago :'(
You can take a look here (http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1174170044) if you want.
You'll probably notice my name's been changed to reflect my mood at the time.....

Yep, fantastic road provided you keep an eye out for the dreaded Gatso's!! The Omega makes absolute mincemeat of the hills - it's great to unleash the full power of the V6 along there. I actually done the 240 mile trip in 3 hrs 10 mins last Sunday with an average speed on 74mph over the whole journey ;) ::)

Cheers Bo, good to be back even if in a limited capacity for a while. :y
Holy sh!t, just seen the picture of your car, how the bloody hell did that happen or do you say in the thread? (haven't read through it yet). At least you're ok which is the main thing :y So are you in search of a new Omega now? There's a possibility I might be selling mine in the not too distant future if my plan comes together, and yes.....it will be for another Omega ;)

Did it avoiding a **** trying to get through a gap that wasn't there, he disappeared & I'm left liable :(
Actually I'm no longer searching, put a deposit on 1999 Elite this morning, pick it up Sunday & can't wait :) :)
