Sorry due to lack of numbers, and the woods being real wet so less will be driving as its very challenging...this meet is now cancelled I am afraid.

I also am not feeling well, having a kidney infection diagnosed today by the hospital, so dunno if I will be better by sunday...

Thanks for you support to those who had their names down, and look forwards to seeing you all in the new year, dates to be confirmed.

Looks like I'm in trouble with the Mrs's again...
She asked me what I'd most like to do to her body...
Apparently "Identify it" is not the correct answer!

Awww, sorry to hear to all who're ill - I was bedridden for 4 days a couple of weeks back, it's not nice I know! Hope you all get well soon.

I might be up for some laning, would be something a bit different!

Lol thanks :P. But don't worry most of the lanes around here are shut for winter so no point doing the ones I know :P. Maybe pm badboy or bobbins for some lanes as they both know the Essex lanes pretty well?

Lol well in my defence the real problem was fudges tyres :P. OK the lane was a little worse than last time I went down it but I only really got stuck so that fudge had something to winch off :P. If I kept the power down I'd of made it in one.

Andy I will lock this thread and anyone wanting to go laning using the link in Andy's post above please... :wink:
