No problem. I might have to rethink the ribbons as they got tangled up very easily and the badges blew all over the place in the strong wind yesterday.

Yes, Alex, thanks very much for the badges, I met loads of people I have spoken to on the board, but never knew what they looked like! The only person I didn't see was YOU! Every time I was unshackled from that..... Regalia table I had a look round for you. Hope you all got back safely. Steve and Mary emailed me to say they got back at 2.ish this am!

bit of a problem with an exhaust and a tyre!

Lou - you were standing very close to Alex at the campsite on friday night. He wasn't wearing his name badge though

Sorry, no I didn't see him, Jon says he was busy sorting out his tent.
I'm afraid I was just a bit bushed by then - didn't finish putting out "stuff" until 7.45pm!

I didn't get around to visiting the regalia marquee until Sunday afternoon and you all looked rushed off your feet so I didn't stop to chat. You must have sold lots of regalia if it was that busy all weekend!
I don't remember seeing you on Friday night either. I think you had left by the time I finished sorting out my tent.

Yeah - not sure if I have feet any longer - just "throbbing things" at the bottom of my legs, but you should have come to say "Hi" everyone most welcome always.
They were standing 5 deep at one time all around the stand - just a solid sea of faces!

Next time I'm in Scotland will be as part of the Land's End to Orkney rally, though I think we're passing west of Glasgow this time. Thursday the 7th of August: Gretna to Fort William.
Have you met bmcecosse yet? He's a driver/trainee fireman on the Bo'ness railway.

You beat me to it Alex. What about meeting up with us en route Rupert?

never met BMCEcosse (knowingly) but I do love the Bo'ness railway (I'm trying to indoctrinate my kids in the way of steam!)
I will meet you en route - we're at a festival that weekend (in the van

)
now will any of you be good enough to badger me into getting Molly back on the road before then?!
