A fond farewell
Hi to my friends and comrades , Well Doris has now left the building and gone to a new home darn sarf ,
Her new lover is a very pleasant young man named Matt Lobb ,
A pretty handy racer by all accounts ,

So with a heavy heart i bid you farewell and wish to thank all the friends I met during my 2 seasons with you,
especially Skids , Ghosty and his crew , Trudi and Kev Palmer , Mr Vespa , but really all of the DD paddock. A great bunch and I hope Matt will do justice to my old steed (hope he kicks some ass)

May be back though if the CBR scares me witless
for now though

Cheers Guys and as they say KEEP IT LIT

It was good to have you as part of DD Brian and hopefully it got you onto the road you are now following, but as you say you can always do a U-turn and rejoin us.
Matt did contact me to say he had bought your bike, so Class A lots as stron if not stronger thsn lasr year as #53 is no slouch either

Good luck fella and thanks for all your help along the way.

It won't be the same without having you to give the rods to on my way past

Hope it works out with the japanese option.

Drop in for a brew at any of the rounds you can get to, you still owe me 40 fags !

Hopefully doing a few rounds with thundersports in pre-national after getting to grips with the honda at Cartegena in january (hopefully--did I already say that ?) and as many track days as time and finance permits

I will be lurking in a DD paddock somewhere down the line though.

Aye, you need the practice Brian after seeing you at Oulton the other week.

Onwards and upwards mate.
