**official Ring Topic**
I have done an Official ring topic.
Here we can have updates on who has broken down and who has drank too much beer.
Well we know Rainers Birders has had a tug already, but het its all part of the fun.
Just waiting on a text update from North West convoy, will keep you posted.
Much Love.

The North West Convoy is now in the QUE to board the Pride of Hull ready for the overnight ferry trip.
They have made excellent time from the meeting point.

He was going one way or another, at one point it was going to be going over multi coloured, with a nice mix of primer and Tahiti blue. Body shop have worked their nads off for Phill, and he has done all the non painting labour on it, and it was back on the road ready by around 4pm yesterday
Ah well, 2.20am and I need to be hitting the road soon, will MMS some pics to Dan later on (if I still have his number)
Don't forget the Ring Webcam folks, always funny watching the PF crowd "live" ish!
Si

Good Luck and Keep them on the black stuff.
