He Lex i know where your house lives.

The Loyd got dirty on the first day's becouse of the English weather, but he's British to so no worry's. We had a very good time with the Loyd. Even lost a track on the first day (to much stuf of Lex in my loyd).

Next year??

Sorry i have not talkt to you all of you but yust dont know all the faces.

Paul

Hi,

It was certainly nice to meet al those familiar names and put faces to them!

Some pics of the Carrier Platoon driving around the site. I rode with Shaun in Puddle Jumper. Barry's Carrier Jeane and Rick's Carrier Welland formed the rest of the Platoon.

Cheers,

Hi Folks,
It was good to touch base with so many off the forum, and all those that are currently building carriers. great to have a drive of Ricks machine, it drove like a carrier, just in need of some running adjustments ( looking forward to seeing it next year rick). As you can see from Marcs photos we did a bit of carrier racing in one of the back fields. Here is a photo of Carrier Barry, Me, Marc and Rick, it generally sums up the mood of the whole week. A great time was had by all. get your dates booked for next year !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
