Doug you'll never find anything else but bone china in our camp.
I shall pop a tea pot and a china cup for the next one.

After careful deliberations with PC tips! Tea should only be sipped from bone china. I packed the bone china for the Pyrennes trip and they are sill intact now and shall be at the next event, Doug I shall pack you one for the next one.

Paul, saw you this morning as you were driving home. Flashed you but you were in a different world with a funny look on your face! Syncro events do that to people!

Hi All,

Mike and I had a fantastic time at the weekend - sorry its taken so long to post!
Will pop some pics up in the next few days. Great weather and great company. Great trial with a clear round from us! Very impressed with the vans and the terrain.
Look forward to the next event and seeing everyone there.

Pax. (abbr.) for passenger(s)

The much more difficult trial Doug set for the Sunday evening resulted in Dai getting just 2 penalties with a superb drive around :ok

Gate 2 looked near impossible without a big detour or 3-pointer

Probably listening to the sound of my brakes going to redo them today so all should be well, hopefully won't need the denture glass aidan as on to part two of my implant so my tooth should be nicely torqued in place must get her to put some lock thread in there aswell to save it from the nettles :lol: definately the second trial was a lot more difficult had decided on a line before but then went with dougs directions which probably made it even harder but very educational :ok and after my attempt dai and clive just made it look easy although i seem to recal clive taking out a few flags but a good time :D
