Great to see everyone again (and rip for the 1st time).
Walking down that lane was spooky :shock: I had to phone Monty for company :shock:

Felt rough as hell this morning! Probably them southern sausages or maybe the copious amounts of free ale :P

I would like to, especially as I am only about 20 minutes away from Bedford.
It sounds like Blue has a worn wheel bearing. I should be dealing with this next week, but do not want to stress it too much in the mean time.

Sorry for the late afterdark turn up last night guys, but as you know collecting and delivering parts from/to the LEC community as well as being robbed ( :lol: ) on the way took longer than expected even after leaving work at 3.30pm!.

Good to meet yet another new face (Woody), and some now too familiar not so new ones as well. Good pics Joss, and some comical posts since (as always).

It was a good night marred only by the fact that I with the longest journey was faced with a closure of the A14, so I was a bit late getting home.

OK, you start a new thread. Although the idea was for you to change the first post's title in this thread to reflect the next meeting.

New thread = closed old thread. :D
