I didn't meet him at Hoddesdon, it was at the VSRA Eastern Region dinner in Norwich. He was there with Kelvin Mullarkey. He's a very nice man too.

This is the time of year when I feel totally left out of speedway, all the fans are chatting about their end of season escapades and their Dinner/Dances. A lot of Canterbury fans have found other tracks to follow Dick & Les they are Edinburgh, Kev H he's gone to Oxford, Steve Hone well he's has about 4 to choose from where he is! and me so rumour has it has gone to Eastbourne (yeah right!)

 

A bit of trivia for you Canterbury Fans :

 

Our last Dinner where was it held?

Sorry Honey ........ thought someone would think of the place @ Hersden. You couldn't have been at the final Canterbury Speedway Dinner then could you?? :lol:

 

The one you have mentioned was the year that Canterbury was sold down the river for a dog track........ that would be 1987 :!:

:lol: Not at all, didn't really expect you to reply so quickly but guessed that most people would think of Hersden as it was held there for some years, the final was held somewhere completely different but where was it? anyone who at the time had any interest in Speedway in Kent should have been there.

Canterbury has memories for me...... first I spent a good part of my army service there, but there was no speedway there then, spent a lot of time in a cafe called "The Singing Kettle" just opposite the Barrack gates.but I did go back there to the track in the early 80's with the Milton Keynes Knights as mechanic,I remember Johnny Hoskins coming round to the pits to welcome us.

 

And one big bath for the whole team to jump into after the match.
