Talking

Craig managed to keep us entertained for hours with his tales of thatching cottages with sticky straws and we eventually left Skids at a bus stop where a very "nice" man was waiting with a "small suitcase"
All in all a good day with great company, thanks guys

Had a great time at the NEC yesterday (trade day) went up with some excellent company in the way of Bradders, Pshcylist and Gbyte666 also ran into quite a few people I know up there including some DSCers like Eamonn, Mike Davies, Scooter916 with his home page model/wife Kirsty.

Decided to invest in a set of AP 4-pot radials for my 955 Corse project along with a set of over trousers for the winter and some winter boots

On the way home got a phone call saying the nightshift supervisor had phoned in sick which is why I'm typing this at this un holy hour, still any extra money will help pay for the calipers

Suprise of the show for me was the unvailing of the 2007 Norton Rotory racer by Brian Crighton and Steve Spray

paul as for the the guy with the suitcase he had heard that a car of cottage thatchers had picked up someone there in the morning so he was hoping the same would happen to him, he tried running after you as you drove away, did he not catch up with you
