No worries Harrie, I still want a hug and a sweet!
It's kind of heart warming to see you returning to an old passion though and handy it's one that can earn you a bit of cash if you want.
See you at Brands

You've still got the memories Harrie, and there's plenty of good ones for sure. Just don't keep harping on about it (sorry had to be done)

Good Luck H - reply to pm forthcoming
I found it hard to watch the guys going round when you've made up your mind not to race anymore.
Think the harp is a lovely instrument

I'll still be at Brands to cheer and support and offer the usual range of supportive cuddles, sweeties and hand holding though.
DD has been brilliant for me but it's time for pastures new. a tough choice but one i've made and i'm cool with (well today i am anyway!). i won't be giving up racing but it's just got to go to one side for a little while.
this will be the new toy!
hopefully i'll be able to earn an extra few quid with said new toy and get another race bike sorted for next season.
good luck for Brands everyone, i'll really miss the racing and if i burst into floods of tears at any point over the weekend then i am very sorry indeed!

It's a shame but I wish you luck Harriebird
Might see you at Brands
