From FAQ's "I hate MR2s, why make it the main ride? "

$&#$% awsome.

Seriously?!

Sounds like something I would have written in Form 2.

Can hunt down a couple of the ones I had published and post or something if that sort of thing spins your wheels.

Man what haters... :roll:

I've read this book and MR2's wouldn't exactly have been my first choice in a car but this book is really good! It has all diff types of cars

I read it in two sittings because I couldn't put it down :oops:

The bf stayed up til 1.30am on a sunday night just to finish it :lol:

Def recommend this one

sorry - i should have said "what a hater >>Snoozin"

Come on Snoozin, you'd probably like it. You could reminise (sp?) on your oldskool Form 2 days

by **Snoozin** » Wed Dec 13, 2006 4:40 pm

Photocopy it for me :lol:

Sorry, if the rest of it is loaded with product names and crappy references like the extract, I might as well read a car mag.

I'll be a hater, suits me fine.

I do agree with you here. Does sound like a piece of creative writing someone would have written in school. "She hurtled forward as though stung by a hornet." Worst simile ever imo. That is what I would have written in Form 1, in fact I seem to recall I did write a simile very similar to that once but it was something about a bull being stung by a wasp. The writing is pretty lifeless and doesn't evoke any emotion for me. Others will have another view and I understand that so don't flame me.

OMG so shiny! · by **Dell'Orto** » Wed Dec 13, 2006 10:21 pm

Concur, extract fails to deliver etc.

by **B ROWDY** » Wed Dec 13, 2006 11:04 pm

Now I really wanna read it!
