It was good, shame there wasn't more activity I only got one decent shot of the Lanc. Was out spotting potential new cameras today :p

but I must say a big thanks to XP for being such a good housewife & providing the food - it was excellent :ymapplause:

Nice one Cluny!

I had a great day! Was so good to see everyone again - and a lovely surprise to see you Mayfly again! Cameron was GUTTED when I told him I'd seen you. Yeah his next comment was "Was DT there?" LOL. He asked me to send his love to you both PLEASE "and don't forget will you mum!" He has lots of faith in me :(( =))

Hopefully we can do more of these kind of days through the year! I can see XP having to do more shopping trips on his way though hey Mayfly =)) =)) ;)

Why wait a whole year, lets do it again in a couple of months!
We could start earlier in the day and then I can do breakfast as well!
