Toby Posted October 18, 2009 Report Posted October 18, 2009 Well I was amazed - there was only about 8 people there! Nice to meet the man in the know. I bought a signed book off him. He was dead chatty - not dead concise, but gave me some things to think about. Well worth the effort. Nice to see Gary (V6 100E) there too
