Hopefully that changes again over the next day or two, but will only make a day of it if we get the good stuff from the weather gods **does a little dance to impress them and make the sun shine**

Now - as you were

Dance for the gods not quite long enough....but not bad...Was a good day ,enjoyed by all

Yeah - next time more dancing on the table gareth

But the rain dance worked a charm for the AB's

Wonderful ride, even the rain could not surpress the grin, though the blind driver trying to take out Aaron and Charlotte did leave me dismayed

Thanks for finally being shown the correct way to go North that does not involve SH1 - great road Wayne even the bouncy bridge

Now just need to get the map out and work out where the hell we were.

Love riding with you guys and gals

Karaoke anyone???

lol agreed - great day and well please we decided on the two wheels instead of four.

Actually enjoyed the rain too, odd girl that I am! But it did mean for wet attire out on the road this afternoon. Wet soggy boats simply suck! No other way of putting it really.

Thanks ladies and gents, a real pleasure as always - so good I could sing a little song
