["essexdick" <tny1964@xxxxxxx>]

   Hi everyone, i know i posted last night but i had such a good time 
i couldnt wait to share my thoughts with you all again, i also had 
the most fantastic time, i dont really remember what i was going on 
about saturday night but if i made a few of you laugh,thats what its 
all about,i eventually got my key in the door put the tv on, and it 
was only after about 20 times did i realise Arran had looped the 
interview ha ha.
   Its a shame it had to end but theres plenty of time for more 
events,im not so sure about staying overnight but then i cant drink 
and drive can i? ;0)  thanks again everyone i hope to see you all 
soon and Kelin are you still up for the southend miniture meet?
        cheers all and take care Tony TT Billy
