Happy Holidays to all on the F1 forum

Well we made another lap around the calendar; let me wish all associated with this fun forum a happy, safe, healthy holiday season. After all the jokes, spats, laughs etc, this is still my favorite place to hang out.
Happy Holidays!

Same to you and all on the forum. But why so P.C.? You can say Merry Christmas, unless I'm
mistaken we are celebrating the birth of Christ on the 25th. Hence Christ-Mas.
Have a good one all the best to you and yours.

 

Seasonal Greetings and Happy Holidays from Malaysia...

Have fun, drive safe...

 

Best wishes of the season and good fortune in the year to come.
Thanks to everyone who posts here.

 

Merry Christmas Everyone!

Long Live the Marque of Ferrari...

 

Best wishes to all here, no matter where you are! Wolfgang thanks for starting this thread!

I picked this up last week as a nice little Christmas present to myself! 2010 Abarth 500!! What a nice little 'rocket'!

Once the break-in is complete, and the new G-Tech ECU is added, I shall take it to the "Ring" once the weather is supportive in the spring. If you see me around Europe say 'Hallo' - Cheers to all DF1, David.

Here's hoping for a better Season for the Scuderia in 2010, Forza Ferrari!

Merry Christmas all! Love the pictures!

 

Fantastic photo! Have a great Christmas!

 

The press Elves have been hinting at 2011 for the States and the Abarth!!! Thanks for the compliment on the little rocket! Cheers to you and yours!!

 

Thanks m8!

This was one of the best days this year for me (if not simply the best). Track, car and instructor all to myself for an entire day. Hard to top that for 2010, but I'll try.

 

There are too many people on this site to mention that make each season a pleasure. Some I owe a blast around Calder Park, some I could owe a case of Stella's and some I just love to argue with, but I would like to wish all of you the best this festive season regardless of your faith.

Love to all, and I sure look forward to 2010

 

Merry Perihelion, everyone!

(For those in the snow, consider:
The earth is approaching it's closest point to the sun (on Jan 3rd), making this the hottest time of the year, ...
... averaged over the entire earth.)


Oh, and a thought for the females: diamonds are carbon, like coal.
And Santa only brings lumps of coal to the *naughty* girls.

 

Actually one of my fav parts of X-mas is the fact that afterwards the days finally get longer again.

Clever.

 

The winter solstice was Dec 21st (yesterday). That relates to the axis of tilt relative to the solar orbit. The days get longer (northern hemisphere) from there. In the southern hemisphere, the days start getting shorter.

Perihelion is the closest point to the sun in earth's elliptical orbit around the big fusion ball. That's on Jan 3rd. (midnight UT).

Since perihelion is in the northern hemisphere winter, and aphelion (furthest from the sun) is in northern summer, that means that the seasons are less extreme in the northern hemisphere than in the southern. (Hotter summers, colder winters in the southern hemisphere.)

 

That I disagree with. Not that I know much about the weather in the southern hemisphere, but just based on my limited sampling, the summers on the Northern hemisphere seem to be getting hotter each year and the winters colder each year. Maybe it is just me getting older...

 

Hold the bus England has ground to halt, no joke!! it only takes -1c 2 flakes of snow and we have had 3 ..

 

Ayup:
Tony Blair, John Prescott, David King
(to mention only a few).


BTW: Obama returned from the global warming summit to find DC shut down by a snowfall that topped the record set in 1932.

At least you guys get the Gulf stream.

 

Don't like snow....... Don't like England.


WOW I'm in the Xmas spirit.
