It all started of with a phone call from Grizzly 6.45am :eek:
I was supposed to be meeting the region 10 crew at 7.00am and i was still in bed :confused:
Lucky for me they were running a little late :thumb
Made it up to the meeting point to see George and Moira arrive a little cold and tired after a cool run down from inverness. :clap

So after a quick handover we were off down the road to scarborough to meet Whatton, Sue and the crew
then onto Kings Lynne for the grand reception in the Mc D's car park :D
but we'd made up so much time no one was their to see us :(
Sorry no pics but it did happen honest :D
Then it was a blast over to the East Mids event arriving at 9.30pm :eek:

Managed to catch the last hrs drinking then back to BURTONS BAR :beer:
where the fun continued :D

Good piccies Forry, although I didn't understand a word of the text ;)

I need a new camera after taking the other to bits to try and "fix" it :rolleyes:

How much was yours?
Think i paid £220 18 months ago only downside is the zoom only 3x optical
but it's so practical just slips in the pocket and doesn't matter if it gets wet :thumb Looks like you had a good time at the weekend too hopefully catch you next time :beerjug:

I think most of the compacts only go to x3. Looked at the Olympus waterproof one that looked good too.
After the helmet broke thats now the next thing on the shopping list now.
It was a great weekend, but it would have been a good laugh to catch up with you lot too.
Bakes is still talking about a hardcore winter off roading weekend so maybe see you then.
 
Great pics forry, I can understand most of what you say now too :D
 
Absolutely brilliant pictures, Forry - thanks! :thumb
 
Great pics there Forry. :thumb It was good to meet up with you again. here's to the next time. :beerjug: :beer:
