Hello all. Not long home. Turned out to be a very long weekend all in all, what with staying until monday and then a 'brief' diversion via A friend's on the way home :wink: An absolutely fantastic weekend where Roo and I wholly enjoyed ourselves. Fun n' Frolics all the way hey! Will upload pics and wot nots and a more detailed post tomorrow as absolutely shattered now.

Thanks again to one and all, particularily Ian who kept the ball rolling, Roo says "thankfully not the disco ball" (a knowing :wink: ).

Tune in tomorrow FOGfans for more FOGaction, same FOGtime, same FOGchannel.
I also drink Port and I'm not ashamed to say it!

Oh man the vids are all soooo wrong :lol: I wonder what the rest of the site thought :shock:

Sounds like we all had a great time, glad we all got back one ay or the other too. Still smiling about all the daft things that went on, we seriously need to do something next year as we all have a good time when we meet up.

Absolutely we will need to get admin to arrange "annual attendance stickers" with A friend and his squeege to fit said stickers! :D :dance:

Have a full vid of the parade lap but cant post it anywhere. Its ten mins long with the wait on the "starting grid" ( oooooo I like that sound might have caught a bug..... racing Frontys :D :D :D )can edit a bit out of it but not much!

Now Ive read up I discovered I can post it to you tube :D :D

One thing need to say.

Thanks to HUW WALFORD

without him the original artwork would never have got off the ground.

Now just have to work with Ian to work out how much we raised this time.

Having an idea but it is only an idea at the moment but how many of you would like to come to Scotland next year.( Late Summer).

Well done to all involved and some great photo's.Will grab a few to put onto the site to say thanks and also show how much you all enjoyed it.

regards and Best Wishes

Hi to everybody who was there at the weekend.

This is my first time on this Forum so apologies if I dont know what I am doing as normal. (I dont know how to use a camera or a computer), but I feel that after the weekends events I wanted to say a big thank you to you all.

Firstly to Ian who organised it all (what a man) and to his wife Gail (I hope I have remembered names correctly) who was there for him throughout. If it wasnt for you this would never have happened, you have achieved so much give yourself a pat on the back.

Thanks to Phil and Steve for the entertainment and corrupting my 10 year old daughter, she will never be the same again.

Thanks to everybody at the weekend on being so nice to me as I am new to all this FOG stuff, but might get my other half (Huw Walford) to part with some cash for another Front (for me) (I love Fording.............not sure on anything I might get stuck in!)

Just to finish 3 cheers to Ian................... Hip hip...... Hip hip........Hip hip. Well done mate.

See you all next year at the latest, same camp site in warmer weather perhaps.......

Well done everyone, by the way the photos are excellent.

Love Caroline (& Jasmine)
