We then went for a big steak after (Gazza had 2!). It was a lovely day, with some great lifts. Boy am I pleased with mine, especially my big pinch. It’s the first time I’ve beaten Dave Johnson on the hub! Also many thanks to all the people who helped to make this day a memorable day. My dad would have loved this kind of get together.
Cheers mates!!
