Great meet really enjoyed myself and looking forward to the next one  ;D

great bunch of guys with everyone chipping in and helping or giving advice when needed,

only thing was I can't believe we finished drinking at only 2.30am  

I think most people went away with a new project or parts for an ongoing one thanks to Dave  ;)


Cheers Ian

I can't believe I finished drinking at 2:30 either, must be getting old...
I have to maintain the image of ex-pats being an unruly bunch of drunks

Hi all, I'll keep this brief as I already posted thanks on the Meetings thread. Anyway I had a great time and so did Jack who now has a girlfriend (Vince's daughter) - they start young now! And thanks to you all who didn't make a fuss about him plonking himself in the middle of the battlefield. Looking forward to getting my new Tamiya Tiger running for Swindon, and reinforcing the HL Tiger's front end as the gearboxes are gradually chewing their way backwards!  Chris

An extra thankyou to Dave (Forgebear) for my Bulldog metal tracks and sprockets and for the emergency help with the gear box's. It was great to meet you all and hope to se you all again soon!
