so as AO do u get the beers in?

[Paul Hurdsfield - Joint Manchester AO]

PARDON

I think the batteries must be going in my hearing aid  

[Blatman]

I think the etiquette is that, being as AO's give themselves and their time freely, anyone who turns up buys the AO a beer..........just don't tell the Thames Valley AO............

Cheers BM

If Studbuckle joins us he may be able to persuade one or two of us to sign up for the coast to coast run It's also the last meeting before the karting at 3 slappers so Richard will need to do a team briefing and discuss tactics
