that charity money from the 2 month break has gone to the charity, just confirmed it with justgiving 

Bearlove that's sweet mate. F1 fans on here do exist I had no idea.I have heard the same from other people that said that before I got into the sport. When I heard you can feel the sound reverberate through your bodies and they'd go all doey eyed over it I never got it. To me that said it will be really loud and annoying all the time and you'll want to leave all the time and would prey for it to end so you could go home and have a nice brew.
Then I got into and there was the big announcement that the British Grand Prix was moving to Donnington park which is nearer to me than Silverstone. On TV you only get the high pitched whine (unless it's my TV speakers are shit, possibility) and the 'waaaaaaaaaa' as the shoot past the screen left to right or whatever. It lacked that low end rumble you here from big stupid engines that go 'brrbrbrbrbrbrbrbr' you know and was told I would experience that like no other if I went. Anyway didn't Donington park really fly the flag for British Supremacy eh? Fucking hells bells. There was some geeza nearing the time they needed to finish the track to have it inspected on the telly and this guy was the head of the project, he looking a fucking mess, his hair was all over the place and his shirt was hanging out you could see a bit of flesh yeah? You may have seen it, behind him the stood the track, I know because the Dunlop bridge was behind him surrounding him was rubble everywhere. He fucking stood there and said 'it will be finished on time, we are not handing this back to Silverstone' to be honest Bearlove I was a tiny bit skeptical but wanted to believe it was going to happen. Well you know how that one ended. I wasn't best pleased. However I got over it. Which was nice.
So if I may ask how much are the tickets etc. they are a bit expensive I remember right, £150 quid or there abouts, not sure if that includes the practice and quali or if it was separate. I would be willinng to pay that for the race at the time because I would happily pay for Glasto tickets and they cost a mother fucking fortune as you are well aware. Probably make it a treat or intended one off thing and do it.
I read somewhere you are or were a chef yeah? ha ha mate sorry, but unlucky. Unless you have a sweet kitchen and call the shots and love it etc. Hope you do![]()
Ben, what drugs are you on the now?
Haha - can you imagine it. Rolling in a hat = SS-FACT!
I simply do not even venture in that section anymore :D - (not worth getting an 'infraction'). *shakes head*
Ben, what drugs are you on the now?
No drugs here sir,
Bearlove I've been there 15 years mate. Not a fan. But if you love it then that's fucking ace stuff mate![]()
Does it? Can someone confirm this please? Bear I have not read anything about loving the job I just hope you do. Because I did at times but in the main I hated it.
F1 deffo needs drugs to make interesting
100% honesty - watching it on TV I would need serious medication/sedation. Get to an event live (even if your a 'chef') then its a different thing completely . Tonnes of rich people with too much money to spend. Same with any sporting event - boxing, horse racing etc.
The only person i ve ever heard had SS was the man Shambles and i think he rolls major balls or something like that.
Bear,
Ben was a chef. He hated it. He's surprised you don't hate it. He hopes you love it.
He would like confirmation whether or not F1 requires drugs to enjoy it, but I suspect it's not a serious request.
Sorry Bearlove.
Do you enjoy your work?
I didn't for most of the 15 years I did the job.
I don't do it (chef) anymore.

I'm not sure I could russtle up the cash to go nowadays sadly. I can't understand the TV thing it's the way I see it. When your there can you only see a portion of the track, doesn't that mean they just go 'waaaaaaaa' in the blink of on eye? How can you see the overtaking battles etc. Imagine if a really big crash happened and you didn't see it. After paying that money I'd be gutted.
