It was great to meet everyone, I hope Hisnibs had a good birfday :smt003 .

See you all soon.
Thanks for coming; say Hi to Chris - nice guy.

Any chance of the Yorkshire lot arranging something similar up there, perhaps next year, or later this season? Perhaps somewhere like Helmsley?

Ditto what DavShill said.

Doesn't look as though the Patron Saint of Falcos attended. :smt017

Saint Swithin :smt002

Really sorry to have missed this. We were planning to do a day-trip on Saturday, but Friday night I came down with a dose of the Lurgy and went into 'I'm not going anywhere' mode.

By Saturday evening I was regretting that decision...

Looks like you had a proper little Fut/Falc Festival...

Looks as though you all had a good time and it appears to be a nice part of the world.
I am really sorry that I couldn't make it but I guess that's probably a relief for those that did turn up.

Now ..... someone needs to go back to the posted pictures and add the names of those featured.
I know most of the ugly ones but there are people I don't and I expect there are others on the forum that don't even know the ugly ones ....

...sounds like a good idea...just don't make it the 16th Sept!

Sorry wasn't able to come over for the day, won't be able to make the Norfolk meet either so something up North in Aug or Oct would be good, if not next year...the Moors (colours) would be nice later in the year, pos a bit quieter too? Would suggest Thirsk, Wetherby (nearer to A1 and close for Dales and Moors) or Helmsley (Moors/coast) as a base?

Seemed a good turn out down there :smt001
