Good job the Trophy is still safely where it belongs, as it's also the last day of the season.

Jenson on Pole as well , do you think we could find a pub with the race on?

I'm betting most pubs in Brighton will let you watch the Grand Prix, as you'll be walking around in pink shirts - you might have to go into a 'private' room to watch.........................

Lovely day, cracking weather, excellent fish and chips, great company (well except Mr Cue of course )
Cheers Chris for suggesting it again, even if I did miss the GP and last games of the season.

Well, what can we add....................we had a fab day!

Firstly thanks Milamber for organising this - it was a great day out (did you pre book the weather with him upstairs?)

It was great to meet some more of the ESC & their other halves, and also some of the Sussex Scoobs - in particular Mark & Gary (Glitter? Unique paint job! )

Total respect to 'mad Kel' & Mark, for providing some class entertainment!

Also Mark please be VERY careful when selecting which photos you post......unless you like living dangerously!!

We would also like to add how refreshing it was to go out with a group of people, where , without exception, every child was pleasant, polite & well behaved - each & every one of them were a credit to their parents (even Supercue behaved! )

Thanks again,

Hils, Simon & Coz
