Hi Richard, welcome to the site, I have just given some details to Rob about Ridgeway, you may want to post the full works on your 'Events' tab? Have a good Rally.
Regards
No worries mate. Our old mutual mate Dave Wade kept me up to date as to your progress. So stay on top, as there are not many of us good guys left. Luckily, I'm not flooded out. Anyway, there is always a ice cold beer in my fridge for you. Keep smiling. Ray
