What a lovely morning, some great "prams" Concorde was the best IMO but my friends girls as Tigers and Apples (two different prams!) were brilliant too.

And it's not just the younger set that go in for this so........ Yes I want to put a team together for next Boxing Day! I have three people I know will be keen so far (two don't know yet!) and want to do the run for a favourite local charity.

Any suggestions? I'm all for Princes Alice Hospice as they looked after my Father in Law; above and beyond the call of duty.

Anyone interested let me know as our "float" would have to be the best! so would take some planning and R can't wait to get started!

Happy Christmas One and All xx

Photos will no doubt be in the local Paper. We didn't get any pics but was a really fun morning. Next year I will have rallied the troups and do our own car theme!

(I will be E Mailed quite a few........ and pass them on)

Any one that wants to join us for 2012; Very welcome :-)

I couldn't make it down this year, but the state I normally manage to get myself in to I wouldn't even be able to contemplate posting on a forum, let alone worrying about spelling!

Glad it was a good day. smile

Drinking on the walk down at 9 was where my pram race went wrong. The Concorde float was the highlight, I will try to look out some pics.

No that's not wrong, you had the right idea! as the pubs were packed; we got one drink in at the Sun and I hear that Windlesham Theatre was a nightmare, my colleague a feisty lady, gave up after her third! so we ended up back at mine quite early!

Please post some pics as I won't see my pics until the 2nd as I've just realised NYE is Saturday NOT Sunday so PANIC.

Oh and next year........ can't wait :-)
