And at last Steve H and I agree on Something.... it must be better to discuss what was great about the weekend, I understand it was a fantastic success, never forget that without the guys and girls who do rescue, timing, scrutineering marshalling and launching "we" could'nt go and Play with our Toys - they are the unsung heros....
Next year I may well go up to Conniston (Undercover) with my head inserted up my ass and join in the fun - and buy Steve a pint
