Back to the caption comp - 'if i shut my eyes and concentrate really hard, it gets this big!'

Scary - that's class oh & DC-we want a full report of your **ahem** night of passion                                                                                                                                                                              

I only had one honest Stella! PP just took loads of pics. He obviously couldnt believe that someone of my diminuitive frame could eat a doughnut and stay slim

Hope 2 see u all again sometime                                                                                                                                                                             

I actually can't remember what I was actually talking about.                                                                                                                                                                             

I want my bloody doughnut!

I moaned and whinged the whole afternoon/evening at poor old Pob for having missed my doughnut opportunity!

We did try to join you on the ride PP, but as Wills says, by the time we got our jackets back on and out the car park you lot had beggared off!

Still - we got to say a brief hello to you - a brief hello to Cataraptor who remarked "I haven't seen you since Avebury" that's cos it was my first outing since Avebury - I don't have a life! & we got to see some people on bikes waiting on the opposite side of the road... so "Hi everyone!"

Gutted to have missed everybody, particularly DC, HFG & Lou who I STILL haven't met and to have missed catching up with Karey, Scary, CG & Pink

Oh well - twas a great day for a ride... a very LONG ride! Possibly not the wisest of moves, to make my first pillion outing since October and following surgery a 400+ mile one, but hey, we made it.

& we got to see Ironbridge and sample the bakery products.

Pob you were a star - perfect timing with the pit stops and a pleasure to ride pillion with, judging by how many times I very nearly completely dozed off on the long journey back to my sister's!
                                                                                                                                                                             

pmsl @ my efforts to look sad, lonely and despondent in the photos!

Pob pulls off pouting rather better than I... should've cut me out Wills!
                                                                                                                                                                             

Hey Lou I cant beleive we missed you!  only by minutes as well by the sound of it !!!  Bloody Hell!   Pob, wudda been nice to meet you too, never mind, we will see you both at the next one we can all get to, which hopefully won't be too long.   Jeeez im runnin late, will write up more later... ! watch this space..                                                                                                                                                                             

Looking at those photo's I think its about time Matt made a facility to post coments under the photos as some of those deserve taking the mick out of, lol. So Matt is there any way...pweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaassseeee x                                                                                                                                                                             

Great meet up. Really enjoyed the ride out to, sorry if I don't ride my cruiser as fast as your more sporty bikes but at least it gave those that smoke a chance to have a fag break while we caught up.   Yesterday was the most miles I have done on my bike for a very long time and a good test for how my arm will stand up to longer rides this year. I had a couple of twitchy moments with it but nothing a good strong pain killer before riding shouldn't handle.                                                                                                                                                                             

I reckon next meet I go to is going to be within a 100 mile radius of my place - I'm feeling OLD this morning! 

Says she, whilst planning to make it up to Liverland for the Wirral Egg Run Still... I'm definitely not planning that one as a day trip!

A pleasure WB,   Mind you Lou, you were so relaxed I had to check shadows to make sure you were still there.   Will - that is a truly horrible pic of me pouting *shudder*     Catch you all at the next one   :-)
