Well it's over and it was well worth the trip. 6 members turned up - Peg Leg Pete, tigs, hatris, manleyfam, jimC954 and me.
Nice to meet so many members new to me, and especially Pete's long-suffering wife :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
Weather was pretty good and we all gathered "chez tigs" on Friday night and at Pete's on Saturday night - may have been a little alcohol involved as well
:lol: :lol: :lol:
Pete has taken loads of photos and will no doubt post them - especially the one of the ghost :shock: :shock:
Thanks to everyone who came and I hope you all enjoyed yourself - see you at a future meet.

Hi Pete, I have 4 pics and I have uploaded them to photobucket. How do I get them onto here? Many thanks to Pete for arranging the weekend. An enjoyable first meet up for us. Met nice people and discussed bongos and overhead gliders provided a free air show.
