Black pudding no problem. But fried eggs after 11-30 is against the law.

Hi Thack

Yes that is the correct hotel. It was formerly known as the Quality Inn and some still call it that including me.

See you all in 5/6 days.

Really looking forward to catching up with everyone. Going to be a belter

Well just back from a short break with the wife and kids. Final pieces of the planning to be put in place.

Long live the BAR & RNR

Been back a while now but the first chance I have ha to sit down.

Thank you everyone who attended this weekends BAR and helping making it a success yet again. Each and everyone of play a part in making this event so enjoyable bringing fun, laughter and not forgetting st loads of Rusty, Ask gog400 about it, he consumed most of it yesterday and was in a pretty bad way this morning but in true BAR/RNR form we just pissed ourselves laughing at him, sympathy zero, all taken in the way intended. Marcus I am as was everyone else was gutted for you. The massive effort put in to coming down so early and for it to turn out the way it did for you just sucks. But at least you did the tunnel of Roaring TVR..... Not a bad little tunnel that I am sure everyone will agree, well worth the £1.60....£2.60 if you drive a 420se though, I think you where charged extra Wayne as you made the most noise....That wonderful wedge is TVR porn mate.

Clive & Jane you two are stars and your effort and willingness to stay on till the end despite the weather conditions only goes to show what a bunch of people we are. This despite having to continue onto Cambridge, immense effort that we all thank you for.

Neil & Alan...Thank you also for attending, the sun really got out as we hit Kielder and back down the Ranges ...It was wonderful.. Thanks again.

A massive thanks to everyone who donated raffle prizes and for also buying raffle tickets... The final total after a little top up was £300. We went and seen Poppy and her Mum & Dad. We presented them with the raised funds and got some photos which I will post up soon.


I think a very important a gracious thanks from myself and everyone who attended a very large thanks and pats on the back to Bryan & Judith, without your help and commitment this weekend would of not happened and mine and I am sure the whole crews thanks are there in bundles... Judith I hope your feeling better soon and pain free, until then just keeping taking 2 Rustys 4 times a day and you will be fine.

Jeffery Malcolm Dickson in your absence you have been voted organiser for BAR IV. Get your finger out son!!!!

Just had gog this morning flash up infront of me again.... Off for a Rusty to try and erase it from my memory...lol

I hope everyone had safe journeys home, I can just see Sandy & Jonny driving side by side on the M6 sharing headlights.

Till September take care folk.

Rob & the NE BAR CREW.

You missed a cracking weekend Rich.....Poor GOG may of just woken up now. I did realise I called Andy GOG400 in a former post. I don't know what the 440 part stands for in Andy's PH handle but whatever it does stand for he lost 40 of them once he started knocking the old devils brew back.

Yeah so I have seen and heard.

Sickened off and feel really jaded as worked so much lately
but just the Vat return to do before tomorrow now - so getting there.

I will have to try get a couple of hours in the Wedge now the sun is shining again

Andy will have lost at least 400 of the 440 braincells drinking the "Devil's Brew"!! ha ha

Cheers
Rich
Hope you get a run out, that's what they are for mate. Sun don't need to be shining either.
