Re: Lights and Chips

Al,
Both Amy and I wondered where you were going!!
Must admit, when HM called it a day, I could have done with a McDonalds, get my drift. Might have started a new catchphrase now?
I agree, family events are good; must try for another one soon.

I've got a nearly 9 year old daughter here who would like to come along some time too.

That's cool mate you're more then welcome.

Just a quick note from me I'm amazed at the responses here It's very touching and makes the work behind the scenes all feel very worth it I'm looking forward to the next meeting and I hope we can get bigger and make a lot of new friends over the comming years.

Thanks Everyone
