Just a quick note to say thanks for organising everything and I really enjoyed it - although my Blackberry was feeling a bit jaded after a wet night on a Welsh hillside, but now recovered.
Journey back down was foul between weather and traffic jams it took me 5 hours (from over by Corwen).
A good do especially as the various car problems got sorted.

Yup. Thanks and well done to all the Ruabon Posse for all their fantastic organisation: the cross country squirrel run (with musical accompaniment), the bowling, the meal, the music... and we even fitted in the pub quiz chez Chacks.
A special thanks to the Chackses for their hospitality and a stonkin great Ta Luv ! to Sue for a stonkin great breakfast.
Well, by the time I went to Anglesey and came back to London via Snowdonia and Ludlow I managed to cover nearly 700 miles in my round trip this weekend. Thanks to Shell V-Power, the car ran almost like a dream... but I didn't run over any squirrels - unlike some people!

I keep meaning to say Thank you to Stu & Sue. Sorry it's late and all. I had a very good time. It was nice to see people again but also sad not to see a couple of people who did not turn up. I hope next time everyone comes and we get on with having a good time again.
I have some film which I'll get uploaded.
