I reckon a trip to the Gatwick train station lost property might be a good bet.... :)
Great to see everyone.

Chris, great night & thanks for organising. I'm just sorry I had to dash off to make my last train. Let us know how you would like those of us that enjoyed the wine to settle up.

Great night Chris and Susanne, thanks so much for all the effort you put in, it really is appreciated.

As ever I didn't get a chance to speak to everyone, I think we should start at midday next year! :drunken:

For those that aren't aware Chris very generously picked up the tab for the bar bill and suggested individuals could make a contribution to the DDK charity if they wished....Chris you're a gentleman :wink:

Merry Christmas to all.

Cheers,

Hi Vic,

Hope your better, thanks for donating your place, i'll definitely get you a beer or two but in a controlled environment, I seem to recall things getting out of hand at Goodwood being force fed drinks by your pal Thomas !. Ze crazy Germans!

I will make a contribution to the DDK fund on your and Gerald's behalf - he really enjoyed it and would like to thank Chris too.


Merry Christmas
