Steve .... if you want to meet up with us .... come off the M25 at the A3 turning and head towards Guildford .... then come off at the next proper junction (following the signs for Wisley Gardens) and get back on the A3 in the opposite direction ..... the layby is just on the left before you get back onto the M25 ..... you won't miss us

Euuuuwwww .... too much information Jimbob No I don't think the country is going down the crapper .... my 2 boys (aged 9 & 11) would still rather be out on their pushbikes riding up and down the lane over homemade jumps and giving their mates a backy than on the playstation, they love watching The Goodies, Worzel Gummidge and Rentaghost (we have the dvds) on rainy days, we make homemade ice lollies, they have to be in before dark and we still call it tea in our house ... so, no .. the good old days of innocence are still alive and well in Bordon

Congratulations to both of you ...... what a lovely name too
