I can see the Romford Tourist Board's slogan now. "Come to Romford, where you only get stabbed some of the time!"

that is quite true

This kind of reminds me of an exchange on QI between Alan Davies and Stephen Fry.
SF: "We're talking about somewhere that isn't part of the British mainland..."
AD: "Essex"
SF: "Culturally, Essex may not be part of the British mainland..."

Canvey Island even less so, both physically and culturally...

She was last online half an hour ago, so I think she is OK.

It was a very high impact, massive buildings had been shaken to nothing

Well, this is good news I guess.

This is news for me. I too hope she's alright

I've just seen your posts about me and the earthquake here in my region. Don't worry, I'm fine. It was a couple of horrible days, but luckily I'm fine. There are not great damages in my hometown and luckily all my relatives and friends are okay.

Thank you.

Hey there, I've been lurking for the last few weeks and been considering a registration here, so I finally took the plunge!

I'm a huge F1 enthusiast and reading the several articles here have entertained me for a good few hours, so hopefully I can fit in one day.

I read the last one and took a sharp, inward breath. Horrid stuff.

No offence to Pamphlet, but it was vile. He apologised for his actions so hopefully it's all water under the bridge now. It is easy to say something hasty, that seemed like a good idea at the time, and then regret it later.

Guys, there's been another earthquake in the Bologna area today. This one was so strong that the Ferrari and Ducati factories have been shut down for the day. Hopefully, Sunshine_baby is alright after this quake.

Hope she is OK, this is probably bad timing for her as I think her birthday was a couple of days ago.

Thanks everyone.
I'm okay, luckily my hometown still has no great damages and here around in the near town and cities it seems that the most of houses are still safe (except the ones that had just been evacuated in the previous days), but the problem seems to be in factory buildings. Other people died today near Modena because of factory building collapses.
I'm really sad and scared, but me and all my relative and friends are still okay.
Eurobrun, you're almost right about my birthday, that it's today... earthquake was not the birthday present I wished, but thanks God I'm fine.

I, too, am glad that you are okay. And Happy Birthday, of course!

Thanks Pasta_Maldonado and Daniel.

And happy birthday to the best driver that F1 has ever produced and to Bernd Maylander who celebrate their birthday today too.

Glad to hear your ok. Two earthquakes in a week is pretty awful.

And Happy Birthday to you, Maylander and I'm assuming, Katayama.

Thanks AdrianSutil.

Glad you're ok, I thought I had some shite birthdays but that's nothing compared to this...happy birthday

May I add my birthday greetings too. I suppose on a day like today, having all your friends and relatives alive and well is the best gift that you could hope for.

Buon Compleanno Sunshine_Baby_[IT]

Apparently the quake was felt all the way away in Milan and Parma, must have been a big one again

Grazie kostas.
It seems it was felt in all the North and Centre Italy, and in some cities of Austria too...

hello all fellow reject fans, new face here - have been an avid F1 follower ever since I was a little kid, and ever since I remember were more interested in following what was happening in the bottom end of the field than those boring mclarens and ferraris - especially the mighty Minardi vs Arrows duel in late nineties was hardcore stuff for me.

Therefore ever since I started to wander around the internet I dreamt of a place where it is a bigger topic to discuss FIA's decision to revoke Yuji's superlicense than the tiring sennaschumacherhamiltonalonso wars every single internet forum and F1 discussion group is more than full of.

So giraurd was a very sad puppy on the internet, until he was browsing the magnificent F1 Rejects main site as always whenever he had nothing else to do - then, by an accident, he clicked on something on the page and was directed here. It had a forum ... and how epic it was to first notice 60 pages of discussion about HRT's F1 endeavors and none dedicated for the top end teams - it was more than enough to convince me I had found a good place, close to heaven. Now, after some months of lurking finally registered, ready to hail for the HWNSNBM
