Default Anyone from the forum??

Just seen this report online. Wondered if it was perhaps a member of our fraternity? I'm from Devon, and my cat's green, but it ain't a vert!

A bit of a diversion from the focus of this thread, but this is something I truly hate - the way these targeted ads can now be created. It particularly annoys me to be bombarded by ads for something I have just bought. Having recently purchased my second XKR, I kept on seeing pictures and notices for other XKRs, making me wonder whether my purchase had been a wise one or not - it's difficult to resist such things, and not click on them.

My AdBlocker prevents any of that rubbish appearing.

I reckon the owner is hiding out, somewhere. Possibly holed up with a couple of months' supply of provisions.

Is Devon a hotbed of X100's, I wonder? Perhaps we should form a coven.

I thought I was the only X100 owner up here in little ol' North Devon, but no... there's 2 others both here in my home town - plus a white 4 year old F-Type! We are the poorest district in England supposedly.

Coven...? It'll be more like a convention soon!
