Well, I've tried to juggle days off but to attend I would have to take 4 days holiday and as I'm off to Europe twice this summer, I'm just not going to to able to attend - gutted and unfortunately it looks like it will be the same for the Borders bash. Still looking into that one but it looks unlikely

Menu for the Saturday night looks pretty damned good to me. Thanks for organising Steve.

Cheers,

You really need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.

Apologies now ! Had to put a new exhaust on the wifey's ER6 as the standard 1 tried falling of on the way down garrowby hill. As the delkevic full system was such a bargain we thought why not.

Turns out it's a bit loud lol. Even with db killer in Oops

I 'might' be gracing you with my presence. I'm having to leave it to the last minute because of work commitments so I won't know until the middle of next week. Leaving it a bit tight for accommodation mind.

Sadly Julie cannot attend this bash this year :(
So I have moved my booking to share a room with my Bro (Wavey) this has opened up a very nice junior suite available if anyone needs it.
