Glos & Warks Christmas Diesel Day

[37412]

A fdew shots from today at the Glos & Warks, a very cold day out, my feet felt like blocks of ice on the brakevan trip with the 03 but I did manage to avoid the two duffs that were strumming around! Shots: http://seed08.fotopic.net/c1629931.html

Good use of the word strumming. Spoon menace also appropriate? Is it time to make awards for 2008 Spoon Avoidance Desperate Fool Award, believe 37402 is top? And me somewhat languishing down the bottom.

I think Rick would be at the top as neither him or 402 have had one this year but he has done more galas and desperate levels of driving to Shenton for a round trip to Shack on the 37 and then driving onto Shack for the next working. Saw HP and Mr Moore today both doing the spoons. I went with the lot from the SVR and after ending up just outside Bristol thanks to someones navigating we finally rolled up at the Glos and Warks after in taking us 2 hrs & 15 mins to get from Kiddy! Just watching a video of the last tour with 401 & 417 now which Banbury beaver gave me today, we're currently climbing Old Hill!
