Forgive my intervention, but shoudn't you perhaps have a hyphen or something between MEET and DENT. I dunno, it looks like it could be misinterpreted, at least to me. If right, please don't shoot the messenger. If wrong, remember I am a foreigner.
Technically correct I think Thanassis, but they did it as I wrote it so cannot complain 
But as they are on seperate lines you read them as seperate or do you

I went to that pub years ago, walked for miles to get there. I swear I only had a couple of shandies it must have been the altitude that made me violently sick and end up falling through someone elses tent.  I'm a reformed character nowadays.
Before the war on terror, if I saw an unattended package I used to think "I'll be having that!"

Does not look like there is any more takers for this meet. Looks like we are in for a good time. Looking forward to meeting all those people I have not met yet and looking forward to meeting those that are regulars and turn up for the majority of meets. Now the question is........ Who's going to win "BEST BIKE"  And have you all sorted Gina out for your order of T-shirts and badges

I would just to say thanks Rod (RodYork) for arranging to turn up and take some footage of us on our bikes. Also you'll notice a new name Graham he's a local lad with a Thruxton who said he would like to turn up and meet us all. So anyone else who has just joined the site and would like to meet us all, and be part of the "BIGGEST UK MEET". Just post your name below

Looking good Ray, hope to be showing my face on the Saturday, (just as a day visitor) possibly meeting to ride in with Dafydd+Mandy. There are a couple of other Tiger riders that regularly run up and around there and are possibly making an appearance? ? Tigers as convoy outriders!!! ? ? Cheers, Mike.

And me wearing my Thruxton T Shirt today....  You'll only get a slap if it's a Blue Thruxton. Me and Zebidee (the blue one from the dealer) have been through far too much. But I think it'll cripple my back more than it is already to ride a Thruxton at the mo....
