3:46 CLUB
Congratulations to every new member of the 3:46 Club! Welcome to my inner circle, especially those on the move at the time, including:
- Trucker Dave, who's off to Balmouth with a load of chilled goodies.
- Keith from Burton, driving a coach from Manchester to Dover.
- And Tony Fat Arms on his way home after 5 days away from his family. I'm sure they'll get a big, fat hug when you get back.
The Main Event
The Boss himself continues to be The Main Event for you guys, and Steph got in touch to say that she was going to see Bruce Springsteen in Dublin tonight.
