Yes I have a mate and posted a reply if you scroll down the page :wink:

Typical as I'm busy all this weekend, got family stuff and an essay to do :( Otherwise I would have hopefully been at Snetterton myself.
Think the next time I'm free that I know of is the 16th December.... but I do get a whole month off then to play with cars 8)

Yes fella it was us..
was good meeting Mick and collecting her, all home safe and sound..
sad day when we got home mind as one of my dogs passed away"Blazer" he was old and it was expected as he's not been well for a couple of weeks but was in no pain and the vet even said he was a remarkable dog for his age, he went peacefully on his favorite bean bag with our other dogs beside him,which was nice as i couldn't bear to take him to be put down,while he was just old, my other dogs look so sad now guess they can grieve too.

Shame about Blazer, I liked him :(

Will you be naming the Blaze Marina 'Blazer' in his honour then?

Sorry to hear about Blazer. As a multiple pet owner myself it's always sad when they pass away.

No worries about my address-I'll send it over now but thanks for storing it at yours for a few days :)

Scenery isn't up to much though...
