    Firstly thanks to darsy for organising. The trip up and evening meal
    was 'entertaining' and today was great fun. The weather was perfect and
    despite having come back from Portugal last week I've burnt my head and
    face. You know you've had a good day when you're tired and you smell.

    These are the pictures taken by the course photographer which were £30
    for 10 plus. I took the lot because a: I'm vain and b: there was a
    queue and I couldn't be arsed to sift through them all looking for the
    one shot that vaguely makes me look competent.

    I was going to write a load of stuff about the day but I'm fucking
    knackered and my Stella in beginning to kick in so I'll leave that to
    darsy and Simian.

    Most enjoyable. Very pleased with the Pilot Power 2CTs. Mystified by a
    loss of power at one point which felt just like running out of fuel -
    Darsy will know what I mean ;)

    Pulled off at Charlies fearing the worst but started OK again. Did the
    same at Park. Got me back to the paddock OK where the symptoms could
    not be reproduced.

    Probably objecting to not getting a proper two hour lunch a la
    Francais. Anyway after doing nothing more than opening the tank to
    confirm plenty of fuel everything was fine for the afternoon sessions.

    Was pretty hot so my theory is some kind of glitch in the fuel supply
    to the fuel injection.

    Sorry for the google groups posting. Demon's news server seems to be on
    strike.

    was boring and shit, respectively. I loved the look on the miserably
    landlady's face when she brought your food and you complained "but, I
    ordered this food with a smile".
    two comments:

    1) sorry for being so fucking slow
    2) I thought you said that you looked good in a couple of the photos

    I'm still embarrased that an old **** like you on a silly french bike
    managed to outbrake me and get past :-/

    Still, as with everything else, I'm going to blame it on my fuelling
    issues.

    If her face was anything to go by I'm sure she would've tasted worse
    than the meal she brought to the table... Mardy northern bitch.
    I'm sorry I passed you so easily.

    Always remember: on track days, if in doubt, stop.

    or if you're Cane, take to the grass, or ride through the hay bales.

    I have no recollection of this incident. The red mist must have
    descended for a while. Where exactly did it occur?

    The A46. We were in a white van.

    Strange I thought I did you coming *out* of a roundabout using a
    reasonable complement of finest Czech turbo diesel horses.
