Hey JD - thanks these are great pics. By the way, these are not all your old class-mate's children ... a couple are borrowed! :lol:

Cheers

Obviously you are at the tail-end of a good post-Games night, 4th Gen', at this hour. Looks like it was a good one.

And Zebedee would say the same to you ;-)

4th Gen the games would not be the same without you at the mic, had a really good night

JD never seen you but you spotted me you should have came over for a wee seat,
The dancing was really good spent most of the night there, left after 9 as my sister is down, probably seen you passing through Peninver.
The weather was spot on and all the kids and adults that took part in the sports really make it enjoyable.
Keep up the good work Southend

Amron I haven't seen your sister for ages. Might see her if you make the open day at the gardens today. Great pictures JD. I can just see amron in there looking worried. Was it a good result at the dancing

Wouldn't be the same if the 4th generation man wasn't in the picture

Jeanette not worried think something caught my eye in some of the races looking at the photo most people have spotted JD me I am oblivious. Dancing was off a very high standard as usual, never had any photos as had my camcorder
Jd you got any pics of the dancing.

nice to see the 4th gen at the games, was he MC as usual, din't make it down but i remember last year strolling in and my name being whispered thru the PA, never did find out where he was?

who is that ugly begge queueing for chips? no, scrub that, he looks like he already ate them all!!!

I met Bill's lovely wife Catherine there, she handed me a Highwayman video and Johnny Cash and Tom Russell CD from Bill.....thankyou Bill.

Dont know how Catherine managed to take that picture as her mobile phone was on charge for the duration of the Games! I was supposed to pass that info on last night! or maybe my mind was a bit frazzled by the two beers I had!! :roll:

Anyway, I got a nice kiss from Mrs Bill!!

I was on the mic and enjoyed it greatly but when I was away running the mile (slowly) the previous mic man took over again and he was far better at it than me! so maybe I will be out of a job next year
