    Err... Very vaguely I think...

    I only really remember going "Arrrrrgh" in the style of a pirate for
    much of the night and I only remember that because I was doing it so
    much.

    Thanks everyone who made it such a good weekend.

    Best bits:
    The trip in Platy's side car, making 21p during my "homeless tramp"
    phase, the food, the company, the Glen Dronach, the "river dance"
    demonstration, the cow in labour, spending Friday evening with good food
    and good friends, the list goes on and on ....

    As for the journey home, Chris took the luggage on his bike, and my
    general top speeds increased a bit - Apparently I'm now faster than
    Wizard, and level pegging with Oldbloke :eek:/

    I enjoyed the journey home anyway, where as riding through the blizzards
    on Friday and the side winds on Saturday was shit.

    Only regrets:
    The weather could have been warmer and the weekend longer.

    The journey home - it took me a minute to realise that was you waving
    frantically on the M6. At first I thought I was going to loose the
    sleeping bag off the back or something. A quick check told me "no,
    it's some crazy woma.. aah! It's mups and steph!"

    It was Mups who spotted you in the rear view mirror and asked if I
    thought it was you. As you know already I wouldn't recognise a Triumph
    front end from any other at 200 yds. It was your lid I recognised - hence
    the waving...
    Guilty as charged

    I gather then that you left later than us. I had expected you to come
    "howling" past us on the way back from Hulland Ward. After we saw you at
    the petrol station I assumed you were leaving too - so it was a bit of a
    surprise to see you later when we'd already gone home, swapped bikes for
    the car, etc. etc.

    No.

    I had completely forgotten about it.

    Will do.

    <fx: time passes>

    Actually I won't, cos it is not on the tape but....
    Reviewing the tape I found something else with WC on it. Envelopes and
    plastic bags and things?

    What have I got in XP that is an ftp client?

    Quite right, the best UKRM meet I've ever been to.
    I just wish AJ's chop had been ready, that would have blown you guys
    away :) Pics are all on CD so I'll dig some up, unless AJ's already
    bored you with them?

    Thanks again from us to Loz (DFV with bar and oak leaf cluster, again),
    to Mike and Mu for their untiring horse-brutality and to everyone for
    being great, especially Steve A for hints and tips on great movie-making
    and WC for being the most entertaining drunk I've met in ages.

    After last April's do, Saturday night was mild and balmy!
    Nick, seriously, keep at it, get some decent camping gear and be a man,
    my son ;p

    I blatted home alone at 100mph with a pleasing breeze and sunny skies,
    feeling wonderful after my first rally of the year.

    Hope to see some of you at the BMF show where I'll be helping run the
    XJROC stand. Bring sunglasses...

    I thought you'd have put it up anyway. It's nice of you to ask.

    Cringeworthy and embarrassing for me it will be but in the interests of
    fairness and good sport, I really shouldn't let that stop you.

    Go for it. Fill yer boots.

    He's got decent camping gear. I think we should do a thing where he
    sleeps under the stars on a warmer evening. He did choose a chillyish
    night to pop his camping cherry.
    Let us know when it is and I'll see if I can make it.

    What are the sunglasses for?

    Yes it was. I sort of remember doing it.

    There is 10 minutes of some really arty shots of the floor and various
    drunken bums talking bollox.

  20. Using the patented Mavis Beacon "Hunt&Peck" Technique, Lady Nina
    Is this something about Shroedinger's Marmoset?

    Only if there's any possibility that darsy's dead, I think it should be
    investigated as a matter of urgency.
