So that gives me another month to get Herman cleaned up a bit before a meet
Is this still happening??

Good question Andy, and the short answer is no - well not for Brian and I anyway, as we are both now going to be in Glasgow on that Saturday.

Doesn't mean we couldn't do it on another later date, although we seem to be well and truly in Autumn already, so not much of a weather window left.

I'm open to ideas though, for those who'd be interested: I can't do the last weekend in September, but could do most weekends after that...

Shame but fair enough.
Up to Christmas most of my weekends are rammed so looks like it will be next year for me.

There aren't many "active" members from the North West/North on here these days (I'm not sure where you are, as it's not in your profile), and I'm often travelling.

However, that doesn't mean that a impromptu, short notice, event can't be arranged - by anyone

I have landed another funeral this weekend in Bridgend so I would have had to miss out.
I'll try and fall in with you as usual if a date comes up.
