Hiya,
Well Andrew so sorry to have missed you all, I was taken quite ill just just prior to your
Tyneside weekend, I was barely able to stand something viral and the first lot of pills I
given didn’t have any effect “antibiotics” so a further course of antibiotic’s was given, I
still have a couple days to go on the newby’s but am starting to feel the benefit and am
up and about the house, although a bit too wobbly as yet to venture outside. I was so
looking forwards to what I’m sure would have been a great day out, but it wasn’t to be.
thanks harry, long retired.

Your motor looking good there Andrew, is that Lance in third place?

hi pete,
no long distance uk road run is ever complete,unless the legend that is Lance biscomb is in attendance!we are all on our way “doon the toon” here,saturday night…

Smile…

And breath out

Looked like a cracking run, I think we need to re instate the northern run, arse upwards, or Preston night trunk…as we all love driving these old motors, what’s next Mr C?
