Jesus, your making me feel old!. I look back and think it really was 'good time' with a big smile on my face. They might be rose tinted glasses but that'll do for me.
I hope the scene is still as friendly and full of Banter as it was then.
I lost touch with Danny and most other people, like you I met my wife and it all went down hill from then on



Couple of Sproggs now (4 and 10) so its just the right time to get the eldest into it and I might as well have a go myself!.
If I can get a track sorted locally it would be good. Things are going well at oresent so fingers crossed. Amazing how things come full circle

.
I'm going to Taplow on Friday (Tony said I can have a go in his works Kyosho


- ok he didnt but I can hope!!!

).
I'm still gonna be a stick man though, tried the wheel thing and its just a bit too odd for me - and I am odd!.
I remember going round to the chap from Demon in Ash a few times - is he still around?. Was a bit weird for a 12 year old to go there - felt like an Alter boy at a priests convention!!
