Mate I'm sure you're more than welcome. I think someone else rang up today or yesterday and still got in. You can but try. See you there or see you in Soho one night!

I'm feeling really rubbish about tomorrow. I haven't prepared the bike at all yet and just have a general bad feeling. Maybe I'm paranoid about the "free lunch" a la [insert politicians name here]. Blah blah blahdy blah blah.

Computer crashed last night so couldn't check times or anthing else practical and ended up missing out on this one. Very jealous of all who made it. Sounds like a lovely day and the weather is good too. Let me know how you get on.

It was blooming marvelous. Bit of an extended gap in the middle due to a plane coming in but other than that it was brill. A total of one off but none of ours. I think it was full to be honest Kneedown so you may have been out of luck anyway.

You'll have to visit us in Soho one night. We're a lovely bunch (of coconuts).

Well after a handfull of tranadol and a few hours sleep, I'm feeling much better, it was a good day and apart from a quite painful missed gear change, wasn't to bad on the knee, gorgeous weather, perhaps a little to hot, good lunch and a CD of pics on the way, can't be bad.

Thanks to Tony for sorting this, and I'd do one again if it comes up again.

Cheers Mark.
