I'll be heading down from oop North, and I don't usually feel like getting up too early, so excuse me if I don't appear until 11 or so. I suspect I will be putting in an appearance...but still TBC, officially.

I've been told to look out carefully for the Collosus machine - it's in a separate building, or something like that.

All are welcome, John :)

cheers

I'm hoping to drag Brian down. Does he qualify as a big brick? After all, he only has a 1986cc lump.

Does a 630 mile round trip qualify me for ten free pints from each person at the meet? It should.
