By the way, Steve (Boxered) and I have been chatting about the idea that he put forward last year of running two groups if the weekend gets well attended.
Basic idea is a tourist group for those who want to see the scenery and a quicker group for those who want to focus on the quicker tarmac
Hopefully that way the concerns some have of the event becoming over subscribed will be allayed and we can tempt them back
Oh and if anyone's up for it I'm happy to act as guide for a pub crawl on the Friday night of Llangollens hostelries

Due to advancing years, can I suggest an upside down pub crawl or "Australian" as we call them here in Shrewsbury.
Ie. have the curry/chinese/etc. first and then the beer, instead of a skinfull then the curry at 11.00 o'clock?
