For a fiver you can have a shiny new 'electronic subscription' - which looks a bargain!

Here is the offending paragraph, I'm probably breaking some sort of implicit copyright but them's my words so sod it.

Rev Gathering
This was the other reason I travelled all the way to Liverpool in November, I spent the Saturday at "The Gathering". This was a get together for all the rev fliers in the UK, and although there were a number of notables missing it was still a huge get together on an empty Ainsdale beach. There were 30 fliers there on the Saturday, when I attended, and more expected for the Sunday. I certainly learned a lot about keeping one of those pesky 4 line kites in the air. Well worth the 4:30am start to get there. Now if only we could persuade some of them to compete, there might just be a quad line team competition again. 'bout time Flying Squad earned their title "reigning multi-line team champions" :-) Many thanks to Brian (big Bri) for organising this event, another example of the generous northern hospitality, hot food and drink on tap all weekend.

Compete again and I'll buy one 
As for team, you are right, your current team only claims undefeated European champion status

Apologies for resurrecting a thread that has lied dormant for nearly two years, but I think this may the best place for this post, and as a bonus, it may bring back a few memories of a great, if cold and bleak weekend.
Anyway, to the point, I have a vague memory of a conversation that weekend, about a film I had recently enjoyed and telling somebody to keep an eye out for it, trouble is, I can’t remember who the conversation was with. The good news is, it’s on UK TV this week, 23:15 Tuesday evening on ITV2, The Bucket List. If it was you I had the conversation with, or even If it wasn’t, look it out, watch it or record it, I don't want to give too much away but it’s a great way to spend a couple of hours on an autumn evening.
