What a lovely picture of the big man

Without a hint of sarcasm or piss taking, that is such a nice photo. You can clearly see the happiness and relief..........a weight off of his shoulders :thumb:

Im just woken up after pretty much sleeping all afternoon.

Thanks for the kind words, great photos and general encouragement.

Thats one of the few pics of me smiling that I have ever seen that I like - normally the only ones I like are of me being naughty !!!

Im really tired, really chuffed and really pleased I finally got my shit together. 6 runs against Tony Green to secure 3rd place was like running a marathon !!!!

I'll post up a full report tomorrow.

A big thank you to everyone obvious like GBH, Abbey, Yokohama, Fulfords, HKS and also a big thanks for being a rock must go to Stuart for sage advice and puttuing up with my increasing stress and warped humour !!!

A big thanks to Mike and Dunc who had their own issues but were also so genuinely pleased for me it made us all a bit choked !!!

Yeah Baby !!!!!

Great Job Bladey, Knockhill looks like an awesome (and very tough) place to drift!

Just been watching that video.

There are a couple of our first runs in the dry as mentioned, but for a laugh at 16:30 you can hear some of my "In gravel trap" interview with Maz the commentator whilst I waited to be towed out, and then at 18:30 you can see my 8th place tsuiso match against Chris Parry - this was the second set of runs after a "one more time" - because I only half span and didnt go off track, recovered and carried on whilst Chrios went into the gravel I went through - this was my first ever Tsuiso victory !!!
