How many scoots did they finally muster for the bridge ?

We must have both done something right with our kids

For Father's Day this year I got a genuine ex US Army M1951 fishtail parka.
Made in 1953, so 57 years old. Might have (just) seen Korea.

For my big Six O last year, they got me my LXV.

It was a beautiful day sorry to say

Not sure on numbers yet as for some strange reason the YSA havent posted it on the website yet ! 2 full car parks it was brilliant. i reckon at least 900 surely.

Me too! Great idea! Feel free to "friend" me too! lthough please send me a message with your request that you are on MV, so I know where I might know you.... there's a lot of spam out there.
Thanks!
