The Barry Barry Road Race is an open Kirk and all welcome. An inherent part of the challange of the BBRR is the consumption of the Pint/short/shot at either end so we would find it difficult to award the coveted title and Barry/Barriet Bear to anyone who has not followed that aspect of the run. However if a pint and half of Irn Bru is had at other end thats ok and a personal journey for those doing so - they just wont have a chance to lift the Bear. Perhaps be a pace setter for runners in either drinking or running capacity.


Look forward to crowning the Barry Runner 2011. Could be a strong field this year. PB's could fall (amongst other things)


Sun usually shines on race day.


Lasers set tae malky.....CHARGE!

DJKillaQ - I swear if your friend is able to drink a pint and a half of irn bru - serious respect and recognition is due! :)-D

That should give him a heads start. I reckon I'll start at 1.00 then, on the Friday.

Thats barry. 1.15 is a good time. We can give him a full induction and he will be well warmed up by the time the Barry Gun goes off. He will be in save hands.

Im technically still in the 2008 run but Im peaking at the right time this year so expect something special....

      A shout out for Mark, owner of Pure Plumbers. 07970 971510 They're well established in the Sevenoaks area, but have recently started doing more work in SE London.  Did some v quick and efficient bathroom and boiler fixes for me; have also seen some of the bathrooms he's built, which have a nice attention to detail.

      New Empanada Place on LL

      Totally agree regarding not supporting chains. Gail’s was fine but last time I went in Feb this year, actually walked out Fayetteville looking at menu and waiting 15 minutes to even get glass of water and not busy at all. Staff gone down hill - sooner it goes the better… Always prefer to support non chains - so many lovely places with good food to choose from with pleasant staff who know about customer service and sadly, non English which says a lot for our culture, pubs are also becoming abit of a hit and miss affair but maybe just unlucky. At the end of the day all about the chef. Still abit unclear where new place is located - is it down the road from Goose Green where parade of shops are before Peckham Rye?

      Surely only where the local businesses offer clear advantages, otherwise you are rewarding what should be failure. I want to be served by a better bakery than Gail's, not a worse but local independent one. Certainly give a local independent some time to get the offer right, but don't buy goods which are worse and or more expensive just because the outlet isn't a chain.

      Let’s just boycott all chains in favour of local businesses.  Places like Gail’s popping up everywhere has a very damaging impact on small businesses. It’s just the same as the new empanadas place but on a bigger scale. I’ll say it a million times more, we hold the power with our choices. Let’s use our power to look after ourselves and our environment (which includes small local family businesses). And yes, I also love Chacarero.
