Post by: Dunc on August 06, 2013, 01:14:39 AM: :D :D Great day out that was thoroughly enjoyed . managed to take the P38 into some places that I thought it might have some difficulty with , even going to the Klondyke garden centre for toilets and it costing me a tenner when the missus bought plant supports didn't spoil it.
Thanks for the day and use of a great site , well done for getting access .. Duncan

Post by: pillum on August 16, 2013, 02:02:48 PM: Great day out at an excellent training area, myself and my son thoroughly enjoyed it, though my wife wasn't keen on the bumpy bits! Just me and Phil will come along for the next event.

Thanks to all the organisers.

Cheers
Paul
