pharrc20 Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Thanks to Peter and all of the MRX and MoTGM crews for a excellent weekend showing Smethurst Junction we all enjoyed ourselves operating and our set-up and break down went smoothly. We even had time for an ice cream after finishing loading the van up tonight. Cheers Paul Harrison on behalf the SJ Team from Hazel Grove and District MRS Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les1952 Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 (edited) Excellent weekend. Many thanks to Peter and the team. A bit of a shame that the Royals chose the Saturday to get married and the weather was good enough on Sunday for peoplr people to go into the centre of Manchester to take the alternative of watching Mo Farah for free..... Back in Newark 2 hours 12mins after the show ended, about half of the time it took to get there on Friday Les Edited May 21, 2018 by Les1952 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium 70000 Britannia Posted May 21, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 21, 2018 (edited) Another excellent weekend at the LYDCC - what a thoroughly enjoyable time in a venue with so much atmosphere! Many thanks to Peter, Wayne, and all the rest of the MRX2018 team, for your hard work; and for managing so well with the distraction of someone's wedding, the FA Cup Final, and the Manchester Marathon !!
