Sir.Tony was thinking of cumming, can you let him know what the forecast
is for Dogger Bank?

 

Brown.

 

In uk.rec.motorcycles, BGN belched forth and ejected the following:

Based on that, I'll be bringing the car.

 

I forecast "Scorcio!" last year and it was fucking freezing so I think
a shit forecast is a a positive thing for '06.

I'll just stay at home and go to the pub round the corner instead.

 

Well, I shall be making sandcastles in the desert as I await the start
of my race.

Though to be honest, at this moment in time I'm thinking that I'd much
rather be getting drunk with you lot in the pouring rain in Derbyshire
than about to race across the Sahara.

Well, let's face it they are both endurace events of a sort ;-)

Anyway, if anyone feels so inclined to send me a 'supportive' message
during the event you can send these through the French organisers
website www.darbaroud.com. I'll post a note of my running number, etc
nearer the time.

<fx: goes off to look for sunscreen, sunglasses...belly dancing
outfit...>

 

You're running across the Sahara? That's quite impressive, mad as a box of
frogs mind, but still impressive.

Chris Deuchar has an outfit you could borrow...

 

Hmm, unusual hobby.

Still, you should get a good tan...

 

let me get this right - you're going to enter a 230Km running race, in
the desert?

You're fucking looney toons.

 

never mind that, where's ya sponsorship form?

I suspect you might get more sponsors wearing this though!

I'd love to have done something like that. When I was fitter obviously.

 

Yep. I'm beginning to realise I might not be quite as sane as I once
thought! ;-)

 

and a free pair of crutches I hope

 

Thanks for asking, i'd really wanted to arrange some sponsorship for
this, but honestly just haven't had the time to sort it out. I'd hoped
to raise money for the NABD, so if anyone here wants to send them a
little something on my behalf - feel free, I'm sure they'd appreciate
it.

But mainly this is a personal challenge, I guess I just wanted to see if
I could do it.

 

I'm racing 100km across Wales on a bicycle on that day. Dunno which
is worse.

 

For once, I couldn't agree more with you. Except I think you understated
it slightly.

Good point. And I'm not going to get sunburnt either.
