just had to add this, one of the prizes was an LPG conversion and it was won by none other than The Laird himself, however he asked his two trusted lackies to install it for him and TBH neither of us are particularly gifted in the spannering department, but after a few beers we managed, and I do think its one of the best LPG installs I have seen for a while

No doubt The Laird won it fair and square and no cheating involved.

It may not be tidy and the top speed suffers but the range on LPG is fantastic.

Excellent video Goran - we really must try and do more videoing of our cruises in future - looked great!

I will try and post my full report by tomorrow but haven't been at home today

To be fair to Brian & Connor they've probably been waiting until I post my main report David as Connor has provided some of the pictures of the prize giving etc - he has loaded his pics up online for me
