Thanked 1,004 Times in 790 PostsDidn't, as in past tense, as I said before it's not my page and I only posted up the meet dates, but I don't do it anymore. It isn't much of a surprise with all the whining I got simply passing information on.

Thanked 7,752 Times in 5,648 PostsTwas a nice little gathering yesterday. I'll try to get some photos up later. Getting some shots of mine and rich's plodders together was a nice little bonus. I'll hopefully be organising a plod-only meet in the not so distant future.
And fwiw, I have no dealings with the southern Facebook page so no, it's got sod all to do with me who gets accepted and who doesn't. I just post there and watch for meets.
