Fantastic - had to go and check for myself and it's from the laning weekend in the Skipton area earlier this month :gold:

Can't wait to get the new edition - it might even be waiting for me when I get home tomorrow.

Cheers,
Robin.

Hope you are all having a good show this weekend? I have a finished, yes finished dormobile to play with this week!

I have a couple of minor mechanical niggles (Free wheeling Hubs and a couple of weepy seals) and I am kitting it out with essentials for camping, but otherwise all done and ready to go.....

And it gets funnier! Just received the latest issue and there is an editorial mistake whereby John has missed the captions on two pics... One is the Carawagons and LRCC at (not Billing can't remember which show) I thing, the caption reads blah blah blah blah blah blah :laugh: He has it in for you Robin :neener:

Just got in and found mine pushed through the letterbox :cheers:

I've not opened it yet (supposed to be working!) but it's possible - he did tell me off last month for 'sniping' about a 'trivial mistake' :whistle:

Ah well, I'll have a look through to see what I can see.

Cheers,
Robin.

Oh dear,

Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah Blah blah!

It was an article about the Harrogate (Land Rover Spring Adventure) show, but obviously the text should have been replaced at the editing/compiling stage :thud:



Admittedly, last month's gaffe was a genuine mistake (where the writer mixed up me and Patrick and had Steve making a Moroccan stew :stars: ) but it still rankles as every time I show the article to family and friends, I have to explain and apologise for the mistakes.

However, surely something like this month's captions should have been picked up in proof-reading as it's so obvious :shrug:

Yours in persecution,
Robin.
