MartinB Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 Ditto James. Had a great clear night and they just kept fizzing by. Didn't know how to feel when M45 crept up. Looking forward to the next season but shame that this lovely summer is coming to an end soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
