Metro,
Yes, my dictionary was required son.
On another matter concerning clubs, if my mail is correct (and we all know the answer to that) I understand HVV is to merge with the NCM (Newcastle Cycleways Movement). The Articles of Association for the new merged club will mean that all male veteran riders will have to grow a long flowy beard (it will be grey/white because of their age). I have it on good authority that guys like Don McWha, Brian Atkins, Turtle, Skillo and Heavy Kevvy are all considering gigs as Santa Claus come Christmas, subject to the relevant police checks!! Imagine if you are in one of the lower grades (anything less than A grade is lower), you won't be able to tell them apart with their flowy beards.
Note to Team Windsock: the flowy beard may act as a wind gauge. Dr Brad might let his whiskers go a bit. Shalom
Your friend
