Anyone with a claim on the Guinness website will notice that the forum now has some new record holders! Well done to Andi, Sarah & Tangy.

Many congrats to Andi, Sara & Tangy...... :D

You could never have done it without my support that night all the way from Hounslow East to the very end :wink:

I guess this now means I am not the offial holder so will have to change signature :(
