Well if that is true it would be good, but a pinch of salt might be required

James is absolutely correct. No salt involved at all. Make sure you pack plenty of suncream and a floppy hat. It's going to be sooooo sunny.... |

No, I have it on good authority that James is only packing shorts, t-shirts, flip-flops and a hat!

My dear LM friends, do not worry I know for a fact it is going to be a warm one this year. After all those years, I believe it was 2005 finally a hot one.
Thank you James for starting the thread, as I was far to busy with work and driving my 95 GT2 winner, I completly forget to start it 4 weeks in advance. Remember all, the R... word is not allowed and Ayse will punisch you if you use it. |

not sure anyone outside of the uk has ever heard of winkles andrew, for those that have not heard of then they are a small shelled sea mollusc eaten by some people on this island that are boiled and then pulled out of their shell using sharp pins, not to everyones taste, the english equivalent of those horrid red french sausages

Nothing like that. I confess I wouldn't eat winkles, but I'll be consuming plenty of merguez!

Well lets hope no one brings them to the meet, snails/winkles or in fact any mollusc will not be welcome, pate/rillets and cheese yes
