Great day out as usual. Disappointing turn out at the shop but one pint sized Jock is worth a dozen fat Buellers (thanks, Dunk
![yup :yup:](./images/smilies/gesture046.gif)
) An emotional ride through Welney Wash making some noise for Yoffi then bumped into BA, FS, Millsy, Ash, Leigh and the kids on a similar mission.
Far bigger turnout than expected from the posts we had seen on here with a few notable exceptions. Adam, your apology accepted, Onanist, yours isn't

and disappointed not to see

although I'm sure his reason was good. Great to see a couple of visitors from Switzerland but sorry I didn't speak to you. Also great to see Burning Chrome who we last saw leaving the campsite in Lauwe heading for Germany. He ended up in Slovenia and 4400 mls later landed back in the UK yesterday and made it to East Kirkby

Some serious commitment made by many including Crabbitbear riding over from Northern Ireland (thanks for the cake, Frankie) and Matron, t965m and Norrie from Scotland. All round the best company anyone could ask for.
Thanks to Mojomick for deputising for Maz and finding fault with my S1W. Front cylinder head broken in two places where it attaches to the Spondon mount. The aforementioned mount is made of stern stuff so the front rocker cover resting against it got me home taking it easy (still only passed by one vehicle in 140 mls

) despite the fears of many.
As usual special thanks to CJ and Jane for making it all happen, checking everyone in and doing the counting. You two amaze me
Love you all
Steve
