April is on it's way meaning the Brittany tour is also coming. yu.gif

Planning on having a Fettle day like we did last year. Sometime in March and be good to see Old & New faces for a brew and Catchup. If it's anything like ChrisG's tinkering day last year no work will take place in a hurry... tongue.gif

Will do Bacon on the Barbi along with Barbi Chicken through the day and Hot drinks. I thought last years fettle went well.

Anyone up for this?

I'm up for it Martin, even though I'm not going to France. would be great to catch up with some of the guys and hopefully show off my new beast. Gives me a target date to get it MOT'd etc.

As one of the new faces I'd be interested in this - had my 900 for 9 months now and not at all confident to tinker with it.... unsure.gif

So, depending on date, I'd love to pop along.......
At risk of doing something exciting!

From a purely selfish point of view, Sunday 11th or 25th are best for me. (I am assuming you intended a Sunday like last time, Martin)

25th would be good for me with the added fact BST starts then so you find out who never put the clock forward, as they will arrive as others get ready to go home. rotflmmfao.gif
