Cant stop talking about such an enjoyable meet.

Only spoilt by getting stuck behind a very slow caravan when leaving the site  :'(   ;D ;D ;D

My deepest apologies for the late reply - I was lead astray last night, so didn't get on the site  :-[

Mrs TB and I had a fantastic time, from the second we arrived until we left.  We were chatting and laughing about it all the way home, so much so, I missed the turn, and had to go through Cheltenham instead of up Birdlip ;D.



We have to thank many...

Once again, Darth Loo-knee did a flawless task of organising another successful meet, I know its a lot of running around behind the scenes, and not as simple as it looks.

Chef Dent, doing what he does best - drinking and BBQ'ing - assisted by both Dents Jnr

Taxi Driver for taking the 'OOF Widows' into Gloucester shopping, which save a lot of messing around due to the unexpected problems with mine.  Also for the pickled eggs, which according to Mrs TB, made my breath smell of a spring meadow, or something like that ::).  And also for the killer Ribena you were dishing out.  It was moreish, I had to sneak a refill  :-X

Chef DTM and the Widows for putting on breakkie for a huge number of people, sorry I was unable to help Sunday morning, it could have gone either way  :-[

Nurse Melchet, for his home brew, a ploy for me to forget what he did to my car...

But everyone deserves a mention, from the longest standing member such as MDTM to relative newcomers such as BobG and paul.lovejoy, for making the meet, and OOF, what it was/is :y. I am honoured to have made so many friends :y



On a personal note, a special personal thanks to those who helped me with my car over the weekend, Marks DTM Calib, VXL V6, chrisgixer, Darth Loo-knee, Guffers and Kevin Wood :y

Took you by surprise though, with the acelleration on the slip road leading to the M50, took you a good 1/2 mile to pass me ;) :P
