OH YES Fantastic. I presume Roy will be arranging a light show with the gas cylander again

[Dirk3D_NL]

just feed him some booze

[LangTall]

And lend him Dirk's BBQ.

Small update:
Unfortunately, Andy cannot make it. Something to do with a very busy scedule around that time. He did let me pass on these few messages though:

I will miss Sab's face on the saturdaya after drinking for England.
I will very much miss you all, have a few for me. Message for Roy, Defrost the chicken first before attempting BBQ, OR see if he can hire a prpane gun and go one better this year.

Bob, Rick, Look after Doris. It will be like driving Miss Daisy opps Doris!!!

Kind wishes
Andy

Too bad for the 24th of November. I have had some contact with Jeroen Bleekemolen, and he was willing to learn us all some karting tricks at the go-kart centre on that Saturday as well as race some of us. Better luck next time, me thinks

[Pieter]

We could ask his brother (or dad for that matter) to fill in for him. They're racing drivers too you know.

[Paddy_NL]

Yeah, well, they all do look alike
Any chance you can help with that, Pieter? Since you're still in direct contact with the RfH-family...

[Pieter]

Sure, I'll give it a shot.

[Bob U]

Paddy, is it the same track that we used last year?

[LangTall]

We have 2 options for a track, but don't want to go to the same track as last year. There are several nicer tracks near Rotterdam.

[Pieter]

No, it isn't. This is it (it's in freeky deeky Dutch though): http://www.raceplanet.nl/index_karten.php?cat=Delft&id=274

Originally we have planned this one: http://www.attractiecentrum.nl/karten_1.html
But if one of the Bleekemolen guys is willing to help us, they might ask us to go to Delft (as they own that go-kart centre), like Pieter says.

[Bob U]

Looks good. Nicer looking race overalls too.

[Pieter]

Ran into Jeroen Bleekemolen today at the RfH office and I told him we regretted he couldn't be there at our meeting. He even looked like he meant it! I said "well, we can always ask your brother" and then he said he would pass the message I would contact him.

[knetter]

Delft looks like a great track to me, never been there. So if Sebastiaan Bleekemolen is up for a little head to head with the fastest among us, it looks like a very sound option.

Well, that's me out then
