Yes definately a big thanks to the team for organising a great weekend - I can't help but thinking that 09 was the best in years!

Suffering the sunburn myself this morning, but mustn't grumble about the great weather we had ot certainly made the weekend. Had a great time on the road runs too, sorry to have broken your trailing arm Paul [8D]

Few pics below, a bit Grinnal - centric i'm afraid.

Can't wait to see Lawrence's video!!!

Yes - Good job everyone and thanks for all the hard work making it happen. Respect to all those who made it (and back) in a TR. I rolled into my bed about 1 am (local time - so 12 UK) Lost a couple of hours due to traffic jams and accidents, but a good run. Certainly less stressful than doing it in the TR....but...I do do feel soooo guilty for bottling it, esp as we only had 3 spots of rain...

I stopped along the way for a coffee too - but that new machine's got some funny 3 pin plug on the end that wouldn't fit my lighter socket...

Just to repeat whats already been said,a BIG THANX to all the organisers
for putting on a great show,and also to Stevie for the NEC dvd and
ordering the sunshine.Really enjoyed my Sunday with you lot-laughed
meself silly at all the pi22 taking-John with his Grinnall red legs,
Wayne and his doughnuts(you had to be there)and Laurence trying to
take his tent down with a little bit of help from me.
Broke me trailing arm welding showing off with Wayne(who else!)on the
road race/sorry i mean road run-wedge goes round right handers a bit
quicker now!Got it home safely with Ian F following just in case-Cheers
mate.
Lastly,i caught a rather covert TR Tony filling up at the gas station
his newly acquired Mimosa yellow injected v8 fhc-nothing escapes my
attention wedge wise mate!

See ya',Paul.
