Should imagine I can make it. Have you invited Lovel ? He did a sterling job at Scone and can do diesel 160 upgrade and sort out keys .

It would be churlish of me not to bring along my little mate who was born in Dundee.

Better stick me down as attending

That's great.....rats....will have to buy that drink....

Seriously, that is great. I will arrange a vist from the 6 foot Dennis the Menace!

As a footnote....the D C Thomson print works now has a huge Dennis the Menace wall cartoon. A recent addition and must be 40 feet high. Surely a photo opportunity.

Coups · 11th January 2015, 08:31

Great idea! I'm 20 min away, need to check work shifts but I'm sure I'll be around at some point😊. Need to source that diesel before then.......

Alan_G · 13th January 2015, 10:32
