    well, if I can't tempt you over to the Peak District
    you could probably settle for one of these:
    Turnslack - 21st Jul
    Worsthorne Moor - 5th Aug
    Boulsworth - 12th Aug
    Darwen Gala - 18th Aug
    Chipping Show - 25th Aug
    Pendleton - 25th Aug
    the great land stretches on, where the endless hopes are born

    Steps in tower blocks or car parks make a good subsitute.

    I am KLOOT are superb. My knee has given in so I won't be racing but sounds like a great day all round. Do you know what sort of time there on? Hope it all goes well.
