buffie Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 (edited) Mikey's gone off to Barcelona for 2 days and he was so excited. He bounced out of bed at 4.30am Anyway he's gone to see the F1 testing as a guest of Honda and will get an access all areas he's taken the jute BHWT bag with him and has promised to call me from the pit lane I want a picture of as many drivers as possible and of course Jenson. Perhaps he'll want an Eglu and battery hens Anyway just had to post, I would have loved to be with him but this is his dream come true....

Popcorn Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Buffie - you really make me smile! I have an image of Mikey getting down with all that testosterone in the pit....carrying his BHWT jute bag Brilliant What a great opportunity for Mikey (and the bhwt ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffie Posted May 2, 2007 Author Share Posted May 2, 2007 He would agree to anything at the moment Gina, even a couple of new chooks I expect it will be hidden away and brought out at an opportune moment, I asked if jenson will hold it If you don't ask you don't get BBxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 I'm sure he'll have a fab time! Are you a Jenson fan, Buffie? My mothers best friends daughter (how tenious a link.... ) drive around in one of Jensons old cars - her fiance is a mate of his apparantly. Jealous? I know someone, who knows someone, who knows someone, who knows Jenson! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffie Posted May 2, 2007 Author Share Posted May 2, 2007 I do like Jenson, I touched his suit at the Honda do. I used to be a Michael Schumacher fan but the advertising campaigns have put me off, have you seen the latest Anyway Mikey is doing work for Honda and had this opportunity, he just called to say they are off to the track and there are 2 days of testing as it rained yesterday So he's chuffed, I did check he had the bag and he does I also think Lewis Hamilton is terrific, what a find BBxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popcorn Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 I do like Jenson, I touched his suit at the Honda do I bet you didn't wash that hand for days did you Buffie I like Jenson too. He comes across as a really genuine, feet on the ground (unless he's drving) kind of guy.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helly Welly Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 I can barely type i'm sooo jealous. Lucky Mikey, Jenson is fab and i do like Honda, even though they are useless at the moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 I do like Jenson, I touched his suit at the Honda do I bet you didn't wash that hand for days did you Buffie Slightly off topic (but when did that ever stop us!), but when I was at high school, one of the girls in my Higher Accounting class met Terence Trent D'arby, and as well as getting him to sign her album, he signed her arm as well. For weeks she would shower with a plastic bag over her arm, to preserve the signature, until it started to fade, and her mum made her wash..

Looney Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Sounds like an excellent opportunity - I hope your BHWT bag gets a piece of fame! A girl I knew at uni had a brief dalliance with a certain Mr Button, allegedly (being very careful here ) he wasn't single at the time and he called her after to check she wasn't going to sell her story to the papers.......

I'll be onto that on monday Mikey's description was 'an absolutely awesome day' he has loads of video and a pic that I can't publish Just for technical reasons of car spec I will post pics on the blog on monday too Right off to get dinner and have a lovely evening.

theherd123 Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Oh what a fantastic thing to happen! Mikey living his dream and BHWT getting publicity to boot! The closest thing i ever got to anything F1 related was my old hamster - he was called Buttons and a good friend of mine nicknamed him Jenson!
