Well Doug (and Ben too)

This looks like a pretty good way to spend a few days. Of course, you can omit the drive to the airport bit for Roger and I, we're going to drive. Maybe I'll bring a selection of some home made tools for folks to play with. After all, this is a galoot type gathering. Jeesh I'm glad I now have 4 weeks vacation a year. Otherwise there's no way I could attend.
