    Thanks to all for today

    Planning day

    I just want to say a big huge massive thanks to everyone for today. We had a very productive day, it was great to meet some new faces.

    Big thanks to Yvonne and Rob for a delicious breakfast and for carving the traffic up for us to follow through on the M3

    Big thanks to Stormforce and Annette for picking possibly on of the loveliest pubs in the south with a delicious lunch.

    Big thanks to Mel for organising the sunshine when we got to the pub

    Big thanks to Vader and Debs for the heartstopping comedy moments on the road

    But the biggest thanks of all goes to Chad for not killing someone and keeping his sense of humour and perspective.

    Was I the only one to notice how very very brave certain people got when they were a mile away from Chad and knew he couldnt catch them

    It was a fun ride there and back - gale force winds, torrential rain, halestones, rainbows and sunshine.

    And the best company anyone could wish for.

    Thanks for a great day everyone.

    Re: The Longest Day - Everything Else

    Must agree with Alp on most things
    but
    1: If you are referring to the "Double Vader Death Look" that was serious.Deb is still going on about this *&%$*&@# Spanish Lorry driver
    2: You seen the look in chads eyes Never mind he is 6'7.Much safer to start smiling far,far away
    3:Ride back I was not scared by the torrential rain,or the hailstones the size of marbles,or the real heavy winds,or the thunder and lightning real close by.What scarred the S... out of me was when the Motorway was completely white.Covered with hail about 1/2 inch deep,me crawling along at 30mph and some f@cking stupid @rsehole in a Bmw came flying past us,decided to change lanes quickly and lost control.Ended up in the central reservation with a less than nice bmw.All i was thinking was please don't bounce off the crashbarriers and come into my lane as well as "DON'T TOUCH THE BRAKES,DON'T TOUCH THE BRAKES

    Got to agree with you about the pub and the company,Ace
