I used to frequent these boards years ago (2005 ish) and they popped into my mind earlier when reading about the Tony’s. Didn’t think for a minute there would be anything on here!
I will have a think and post my thoughts.

Lovely to see this tradition is still going!

There's a couple of us who still "meet" here every year. Because, as you said, tradition.
