    And there I was blissfully thinking the "Boinger Bash Event and Payment Details" thread that's been running for ten weeks gave the game away.
    How I laughed!!!!!

    If you possibly can, please do yourself a huge favour, take the plunge, make the trip and get yourself to a Boinger Bash. I promise you a most fantastic day / weekend amongst very genuine, friendly enthusiasts. Most definitely worth the trip. Many travel from very far afield and keep making return visits, such is the enchanting spirit of The Bash.

    It has been steadily growing for sure, Neil. And we've had pledges from the odd forum member in the US to visit when they come over, too.

    For sure, we'd probably like it to keep growing, but maybe not too big, to retain the friendly, cosy character?

    I normally do, Tone.

    Besides, there'd be no point in me avoiding paying road tax to walk anywhere.

    Suppose you'd struggle to carry the load of boingers to and fro too, Mick.

    I do hope the treatment's going well, Neil, and that you're okay to nip in next week, although I'll miss you if you can only do the Thursday (appreciate your prior commitments with the darts, mate).

    Take care my friend.

    30 miles is a special outing? I gotta be fair, I had a car like that once.

    Reminiscent of an old bike then, Phil?

    Be nice to have a garage full now, though!

    Its not so much the darts as the after effects of the procedure I had for prostate cancer. Feeling pretty sore and slow moving at the mo - just need a few days to get over it I reckon
