Welcome to the club John    your right mate the meets are great fun great bunch of guys with great sense of humour

and loads of knowledge and experience, come along if and when things get back to some degree of normality.

Im looking forward to meeting up as well 👍

Welcome Sav 👍

[sttwoton]

Sounds good, might be worth a trip over the bridge, Im in Somerset, so if you guys are in South Wales, you might be unfortunate enough to meet me. 😁

@ sttwoton you won't be the first from Somerset to take the trip and it's definitely worth it, even just for breakfast

[sttwoton]

Where do you usually meet?

[kiemuloly]

M4 J30 services? If I remember the number correctly..

I don’t think Geoff has been about for a while , he’s bought a BMW

[kiemuloly]

He's not been in here and I've not heard anything from him recently but he was toying with the idea of a less st specific "club"

Michael, seem to remember these Welsh guys making yourself and another Englander looking like a couple of when they set you up in a photo holding blow up sheep. You both looked somewhat ill at ease. Was that as far as the abuse went?

[kiemuloly]

I couldn't possibly comment on the abuse.

[annegirvan]

You both got back without the need of counselling then?

[kiemuloly]

My therapist said I should be able to sleep at night in just another 6 months of hypnotherapy so wasn't too bad

Get your reading glasses on John, theres a lot more meets organised than a 'few breakfast meets'

With Brexit now finalised, we might have to revisit how many of 'you' people we let in, maybe we can treat the sheep given out as green cards and only those with one are allowed across

M4 J33 but you boys are welcome to meet at J30

Don't let M235i put you off John , even when owning the ST, a large part of my time spent on the FSTOC would be posting about or the organising of, meets and run outs and with the current lockdown restrictions, it's not viable at the mo but it doesn't mean I haven't started planning for 2021.....maybe we'll see you at a meet one day

I'm still running the Facebook page (which your on) but invite only, as we want only people we know or trust on there, it was mainly created to keep everybody together, as we know this is a FSTOC and a lot of ex- ST owners have different makes or models now but are still enthusiasts and still want meet up, the group is just not Ford/ST specific.

Mmmmm you call abuse, I call banter.... a tongue in cheek way of welcoming the non - Welsh among us  .....you didn't see the    bumper stickers we added

The only therapist you have, is for wetting the bed with excitement, the night before a Black Mountain Run
