It's largely thanks to the encouragement and support of people here that I am now an event junkie. I'm a late starter though - Didn't get married until my late 30's and no children until my 40's, the Ring/Spa/Pod in my 60's. What am I going to do in my 70's!?

You in particular, TC, have always praised my efforts in spite of me occasionally irritating you by posting complete bollox  :laugh:

:grouphug:

[Very off-topic, but I'm betting you're still on Cloud Nine re the newborn. It changes but the joy remains]

Occasionally  :surprised:   :grin:

Robin you wind a lot of people up on here with your ways, that goes without saying.  :smiley:
But you are part of the furniture.  :star:  and a big chunk of what gives this place its flavour, and a big character.
 I know you have had a few jabs to the ribs lately, but as you know that's part of being you.
You are a bit to old to be changing now  :laugh: but to be honest i think we would all lose something if you did.  :grouphug:


I can almost feel a tear coming to my eyes....almost :grouphug:
Golf R gone.

....You great big softie, Hedge  :grin:

Pass me the Kleenex, please - I am overcome with emotion and suddenly and involuntarily in touch with my feminine side.

Quickly back on topic, I'm keeping my eye out for the next RWYB we attend.

....I have to say that I've never understood why it's called a "crisis" - It's absolutely not! :drinking:

I noticed the next one was this Sunday but I'm playing a gig (tooting my floot). Besides, as you rightly point out, we want the track to improve.

We'll stay in touch via the forum about the next we all attend I'm sure  :happy2:

How about the one in the first week of March? I think I'm free then.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.
