Under normal circumstances Bob this would have been right up my street with an excuse to visit North Wales. My birthday is the 3rd of August and this year I will be 60 and we are having a house party that weekend to celebrate, with guests coming from all over the UK. Be sure to remind us next year.

Sorry Bob my party is for riffraff only as my mates from the east end will testify (some of them have testified quite a few times)  8)

Wouldn't bother with this event next year it was pants. Fortunately I didn't have to cough up the entry fee (£10.00) as a chappie was going out as we were coming in and he gave me his ticket. Unfortunately my mate, Mick, had to get his spondula out for his ticket and he didn't let me forget all afternoon. Should have taken notice of my benefactor's words when I asked him' is it any good?' his reply 'NO!' Probably the most exciting thing we experienced all day was the foot long smoked sausage that we each had for our lunch, very tasty it was. Oh the skill riding display was just ok and there were some rather nice vintage bikes around. Fogarty was his usual arrogant self so  I didn't listen and not many others were either.

We ended up at the Prospect Tea rooms for tea and whinberry tart which was far superior ::)

Bob

PS Rae bet your w/e was rather better so we won't be arranging a visit in 16 (to the Llangollen International Motorcycle show)

Yes Bob a good time was had by all at the party. We will have to find something else to do next year. I'll leave that one up to you to plan  ;D
