Well done to everyone involved. I like many on here enjoy reading Daves passionate posts about his and our beloved Clarets. He seems a very nice chap and deserves our support and help as he helps many Clarets when they travel to Mauritius UTC

Please pass on my regards to him. Unfortunately, I suffered an accident and spent 4 days in hospital over Christmas and I am now not allowed to drive until I am given the all clear by a neurosurgeon. As a result, I shall be unable to get down to the Turf as I normally do for some time.
I would have definitely been there tomorrow and it would have been good to see BHurdwaz again. Hope that all goes well ---on and off the field.

I've only just read through this thread and I wasn't aware of what has actually been going on for davemanu.

I'd just like to say a massive well done to everyone who has been involved in it and hope he had a fantastic day despite the result.

Well done all, absolutely brilliant.
