Quietly confident that a second place trophy will only be needed if you are determined to return to Scotland with some silverware. Our machine is much improved and we have embarked on a serious pie eating regime to ensure maximum terminal velocity. Anyway, shouldn't we be having this discussion in the "Sidecar" thread?

Sorry to hear that. You're still pretty quick off the mark with your excuses though...
