Fab day, I just don't fancy another hang over on 3rd October after celebrating us doing the double!

Glad I'm not the only one.

Decided to avoid town as currently unwell, so we waited on Manchester Road (near Chevies) amongst a lot of other poeple. Chevies appeared packed and people were outside the car sales place sitting on the wall.

We turned up at 4pm. We knew we were early but didnt want to be late - there appeared to be a large crowd already there so god knows how long they were waiting.

Yeah that will be Doug hoyle..
