Greg, purely in a 'whipping arse' context must be ok????
Since another stoopid rain-out, even tho it didn't rain duing the planned event *^%$# , Tony has asked me to suggest the option of a trip to Warwick
to the planned event on the th August, a track championship event (I believe) that he is planning to run anyway.

Being a Nostalga event I think we would be well recieved.......
