    Brad,
    I always wondered what motivated the guys to call this meeting. I am sure it was a multitude of things but I wonder if "one" thing happened. I would like to hear Crawford tell the story. TM

    TM I think you have the book I did for the 50th, read the first few pages. It started long before this.

    Maybe they just liked the food. The M&N was located on the east side of Lurgan not far from Goodys.

    They didn't like it to much, they purchased it and tore it down. It will make a good addition for the SFD station 2.

I am sorry to add the word verification but recently 88 of my post were spammed in one night. I do not have the time to correct that many post again, so this will eliminate the bullshit.
