Hi,

The NLR Meet was a qualified Disaster, unforunately MJ Spencer and Richard Armstrong Never made it. Then complete disaster, the 47 failed, meaning an hour wait for the peak to be hooked up, then a massive shunt that saw a run-around. Then the biggest disaster, the Peak couldn't create a Vacuum, so we were stuck, the Line had to cancel all services. :(
