I think we all appreciate you "coming to the fore" again THJ..thanks for explaining what your proposals were and how they were affected.  

(For those that are still trying to work it out..."LLP" stands for "Limited Liability Partnership" unless I stand corrected ? . Go wikipedia it. 

 

Cheers

I seen something a few week ago, somebody saying  that DP was to be demolished to make space for Sellafield offices, perhaps not.

Statement this morning that the Comets will not run in 2019.

I am deeply saddened by this news. Although I did not attend every week I loved coming up on Saturdays - a terrific run, some tea and a couple in the Henry Bessemer, some great company and almost always a good meeting. A real shame, but I am not totally surprised as attendances simply weren't good enough.

Really sad news.

Have to feel for the seven riders. They must feel that they've been badly stitched up. Rasmus will be pleased he followed the big money to Glasgow.  He was slated for not showing any loyalty to Workington but that all seems a bit hypocritical now.

Hope this isn't the end for the Comets.
