Bruntingthorpe Lightnings

Postby 106500 » Tue Jan 11, 2011 10:52 pm

Has anyone any news on the Brunty Lightnings? - with the loss of the forum updates its all a bit sad that there is effectively a news blackout - I guess I'll find out at the next event at the end of May, while I understand why, its so disappointing that enthusiasts like me haven't a clue whats going on though I agree we were rather spoilt in the past with the great info...

When did that ever stop you? :D

That's neither here nor there ;)

Seriously though, I don't venture over unless I'm either invited, or, if I see Andy knocking around. Neither of those things have happened for a little while.

I know they're busy, but that's not news, they're always busy ;)
