Are you tempted to come along, Ken? I'm sure you could find an excuse to visit head office

Re: Taster Day Feeler

Ok, so far we have:

1. Devonutopia (Jase)
2. Smstext (Paul)
3. CheezeMonkhai (Mark)
4. MattAndy (Matt)
5. RobMawer (Rob)
6. VRStu (Stu)

I've also currently managed to enlist a few more coaches which means we now have a bit more space if anyone else would like to come. Just to re-iterate all it'll cost you is for your petrol/diesel and your lunch

I've only listed the Briskoda people here

I've managed to recruit a few further victims from other forums and word-of-mouth

Re: Taster Day Feeler

Should be a good day (except for those who'll be suffering my driving ... sorry, Stu ) and hopefully we'll have more of today's weather!

As Matt's not able to make it, there are spaces available if anyone else is interested in coming - just let me know either on the thread or by PM and I'll forward you a link to the pdf for the day.

Chris

Chris
I liked the special route but can you remember it or are you just going to use The Force again?

I could borrow one of their cars to come down in but I'd end up in a ball of fire, wrapped around a tree 200yds down the road after one press of the accelerator
