Vard should be back soon, he took a good few pics, I took a bunch of rubbish ones with his camera too, but really good turn out shame about the weather, I think something like a go karting meet might be a good idea if people are up for it? :P nice to meet everyone put even more names to faces!, know quite a few of you now :D shame you couldnt make it phil :'( was looking out for your purple cabriolet :P

Yes, sorry to hear about your discomfort, Phil.

However, you, Sam. You fail in a monumental lazy cop-out fashion.

Plus, I'll get my camera in in a few minutes. For every comment that goes up pestering me, I'll delay putting photos up exactly ten minutes.

rhubarb. I'm back down to just about where I started this morning, hovvering just above the quarter tank mark.

Carry on with the pestering folks, I don't really need an excuse to be lazy, but it sure is nice when I've got one...

Damned straight.
I've no idea how I'm going to EAT for the next three days...

A big thanks to all who came along, by the way.
Apologies for being so horribly late, and so disorganised!

Perhaps we need a banner that can be passed about between members for meets...?
