Sorry no tea.

Daa.. he’s American, so its coffee.

He was over to visit his sister, who’s married to a guy in East Devon, whose brother owned a business behind SP, who knows Dave in SP and brought him in to meet him.

He didn’t tell me that he’d won at Suzuka when we spoke about it.

And the stupid thing is, when I goggled him yesterday I was wearing a T-shirt bought for me a this years event, which has all the riders names on it for the 34 years. I never spotted it before but theres is name with Mike Baldwin.
