Well the weather was not to bad, the company was excellent, the banter brill, I got loads of hugs and it was great to see everyone, the food went down, and the booze was drunk by our Ste, but all in all what a fantastic day I had. Thank you to everyone for coming, Bobby will put the pics on later as they are still in the garden messing with caravans now.
Love you all, safe journeys home.

what a great day, had a fondle, got fondled, licked a belly button, ate loads of food, watched Ian trying to split upper ball joint, while the castle nut was still on and not even cracked, oh what fun it was to watch him hit it two or three times, before we told him,

thanks for having me,



ps, dont post all pics up,

pps, sorry bobby,

Thanks for a great day, good food and a good to put more faces to names.

Mrs was a little bored (understatement) but thats women for you, Fronty isn't her kind of thing, but never mind. Thankfully she was too tired to slap me around when we got home.

hopefully I was of some help, but maybe I was just an entusiatic hinderance. Well I learnt o thing or two yesterday, and thats the main thing.

anyways, again Thank you all for making us so welcome
The greatest lesson in life is to know that even us idiots are right sometimes

I'd like to thank Bobby & Chrissy for opening up their back garden (and surrounding area) for a cracking afternoon. :clap: The buffet appeared to be topped up all afternoon, with hold and cold drinks available to all.

Lots of fettling on lots of trucks and a free exchange of knowledge.

'twas also nice to be at a different, more central, location that allowed a different geographic group of FOG members to interact - it still cracks me up listening to the variety of dialects trying to communicate with local slang and the ensuing blank faces.

For me, even without the Frontera, it was a great afternoon - FOG is not just about the Frontera - it is also about the people, and I haven’t met a bad one yet.

Cheers Bob, cheers Chrissy.
