Never argue with an idiot, they'll only drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

After a few false starts and misunderstandings in the past, I plan to make a triumphant appearance with the new chip van.

Felix me 'ole bottom dweller,
Can you give us some idea of exactly what you'll be offering, a menu perhaps?
French or English potatoes for the chips? Halibut? Any Dover Sole? - I know the French have their soles, and of course we have our soles.
Don't forget a decent selection of pickles either, a booze and munchy evening is incomplete without a nice gherkin and a couple of onions.

.............however, that's not mine and I don't go in for those fancy goujons and stuff.

So I'll just have good honest to goodness stuff like:

Cod
Coli  (my cat likes it)
Plaice
Saveloy
Pickled Eggs and Onions
lots of Chips

and not forgetting.........a battered sausage or two.

Any requests?  I'm off to Bejam now.

You lucky buggar, I would have love to have been there then but I would also have liked to have been to all of them ::) .
It must have been a very different place then

Right car, wrong year.

I'll make it easier - this photo from same year.

And yes, it was a lot different then.  Location for both shots is (old) entrance to Bugatti circuit by the esses.

Thanks for asking.  The master plan is to be on MB with the new chip van and the Daewoo (plus some tables and chairs).

However, others on this forum will imply that I am a useless, two faced, disorganised, insincere fish fryer who is a poor excuse for a catering operative.

I blame the engine in the old van and that sneaky looking gendame who refused to accept my bribe of a battered sausage and took offence at the size of my fillets!

This years pilgrimage will be the the Four 'O' bash. but only the 12th LM.
 All are invited for a beer or three, or the away trip to welcome me over for another beer!
