    Neil B:

    Thanks Jamie for a lovely evening.  We both enjoyed it and was really worth the trip from Essex.

     It wasn't too fast, although I was near the front.

    Strange thing about convoys, they are faster at the back for definite !!!!  I think its because you get held up at junctions all the time and then have to play catch up a lot...

    If you remember Martin, that is why I always used to follow from behind. Great fun catching up, until the convoy leader makes a stop and leaves the tail hidden round a bend.This is where it happened

    and this is the road surface

    We went on a Christmas lights run last night with the 702 FJ Crew complete with our own lights! Think you should do this next year! Not sure about the snowman though! Been sat at this for 10 minutes now and can't work out how to post this link!

    I'm sorry I missed this due to being under the weather, so to speak!!  I managed to lose my voice (a nightmare for me obviously Crying

    I'll look forward to next years!!

    It sounds as though it was a great night!  I had reindeer ears with a flashing red nose too!!

    Thanks to everybody for coming along and giving this a go Smile

    It went much smoother than I anticipated and the feedback so far has been really positive, so I think we can look forward to a simialar thing next year, and maybe a re-jigged version for a summer night run next summer?

    Get well soon to Katie and Shiny Steve, I know you were both looking forward to it.
