Nice bunch of pics!

:thumbup:

I'd have loved to have gone - alas the Volvo's ever growing repair bill (steering pump now!) pretty much put paid to it - and eaating too I think!

OMG! Thought I'd died and gone to Banana heaven lol..Shame we couldn't make it either but all my holidays were booked and I work every Sat so it has to planned like a military Op if I get to go and needs loads of notice to swap holiday days over etc..The pics are great! Playerone,nice leathers, are they new? What was up with your indicator? get yourself a pair of mirrors like mine with the built in indicators,much much better view. You all look and sound like you had fun fun fun and who was it in the tent with the sheep???? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Just goes to show that yellow is indeed the fastest colour :)

I am revisiting the camp site with bike and family, possibly a weekend towards the end of May (not bank holiday as it'll be heaving) Op Storm II part II perhaps :) Everyone is invited. More details to follow. Is that enough notice? lol

You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when posting something which you later rely on in quote. Anything you do say may be ripped to sh*t.

What is it with the weather now, felt like it was heading to winter on friday when we were camping, now the temperatures are back up to late summer figures!

Geodude, when you said you were booking the weather for Op Storm 2, did you do something bad to upset the big man?, looks like he made it unseasonaly bad just for the weekend! :lol: :lol:

More details to follow. Is that enough notice? If I know exactly when..I'll look into that as I have already put in my holidays for next year but few irons in fire that I can't divulge just yet so may change things for the better for me..If I know of the date, and it is a definate date, then I can look at that and maybe change a date or two around at work n seeing as how I'm off every Sun Mon n Tues, could work out well for us if date is fixed at that and I swap a holiday day somewhere. :-)
