I'm so sorry

but I'm going to have to pull out of this one.

Me and 'er are getting hitched in sept, and we have to pay the registar & hotel £££'s, I really can't afford it (trip to wales) (and i like my balls where they are, so cancelling the wedding is out of the question)

I was really looking forward to it, honestly.

thank you Trugga for arranging it, and I really am so sorry I can't come.

I'm seriously gutted i can't come, sorry

thanks for the congrats.

I feel really bad about letting Trugga down on the laning trip, me and the eventual ball have tried to work a way for me to come, but i'm afraid it's a no go.

hopefully someone else can make it. and I will be in attendance later in the year.

I really do feel crappy about letting you all down at such a late date.

Right, it's about time I updated this thread.

The laning day in north Wales is still on for those that wish to take part.

I had allowed some time for people to sort out their calendar and let the excitement build for the beginner, alhthough that time frame also also allows other things crop up, so I've been through this thread (and the PM's) and the following is the first come first served list:

1. Truggs - Confirmed
2. JueOmega
3. Jellybaby
4. Damrabbit

Reserves
5. Weave 67
6. Headbanging

In the next few days I would like to hear from those on the list to confirm if they still want to take part. On Wednesday evening, those not confirmed will be stricken from the list and the confirmed members names moved up.

If there is only two confirmed, I will still drive the lanes.

To remind you what we will be doing: starting in Corwen at about 10:00am, we will drive approx 37 miles, 70% of which will be unsurfaced. We will finish around 17:00 in Chirk

Hi Trugga,

Thanks for adding us to the list.

We are still available and can confirm that should a place be available, we will attend.

Many Thanks
For what it's worth it was worth all the while
It's something unpredictable but in the end is right
I hope you have the time of your life

Should be a good relaxing day, with plenty of photo ops (and knowing me, coffee stops) - weather forecast looks favourable too.
