    Of more interest is that John Slight, in his beige Maestro 1300 Van, kept up with Fleagle and also Ben's TD ! The rest of the group caught up with us, after near 10 miles of madness, within a minute though .

    It was the best Run yet, I'd say - many of the usual suspects and a few new faces too. It was also good to see just Maestros and Montegos in attendance - not something that has happened for the last couple of years.

    The weather wasn't good, but it didn't blunt our enthusiasm and enjoyment. My tent was flooded on Monday morning though .


    Anyone for the North Yorkshire Moors (including Scarborough, Whitby and Goathland [home of Heartbeat]) next year???
    yes, i thought you may have been having a giraffe Mr Smith.
    i was also suprised at jons pace. must have been the close ratio 4 speed van box on those roads

    im up for it next year Rich

    cheers Ben

      'Dave the cat' was fighting and banging/running into the sides and fronts of tents in the wee small hours of Monday, before the rain came. He also hung around for some time while we cooked breakfast on Monday morning.

        Ricky, try http://www.irfanview.com, quite a few people on here recommend it. If memory serves, the maximum size the forum will let you upload is 550 pixels on the longer side .

          OK, I've had a go at resizing them, that irfanview program makes it far too easy, much easier than struggling with paint! They do sort of lose their point a bit being so small, but you get the idea.....!
