Indeed SJ, and according to my pinecones, weather looks like it will be fine (always is on race day!). 72 runners last year, think we may top that this year. We're gonnae need a bigger bear!


We will be in Plough from noonish, but expect "runners" and their support teams to arrive fom 1ish upto 2.30 when the list needs to be closed for set up at the Clockhouse. Aim for the Barry gun to go aff at 3pm (or there abouts) We have considered the use of BOOBS (Barry Ordering Of Bevvy System) this year, so will see how that works.


Normal rules of the road apply.


See youse at the start and or finish lines...till then:


Lasers set tae MALKY.......Charge!

We participated last year.... Was great fun! We had friends visiting for the weekend and they did it too!


We moved away from ED earlier this year so are not around to join the fun, however we have organised satellite participation here in deepest darkest kent! Participants arrived last night for a warm up ready for the big day today! Will keep an eye on here to make sure the start time coincides :)

Greetings Sports Fans


So the big day is finally upon us. Looking forward to what will surely be an Olympic event. Please ensure you're at the Plough for no later than 2 o'clock in order for us to get the Clockhouse drinks order sorted. We will be in the Plough from Noon limbering up in the Barry Barry style.


Weather is here, wish you were lovely...


Lasers, Malky, Charge etc

Looks I will be there cheering on too! Was supposed to be doing Dulwich Gallery with the (21 year old) daughter of an American friend. Turns out she'd much rather come to this (who would have thought it). And, fair warning gentlemen, she is, and I'm quoting here, her "college beer mile champion"...will see if we might have a US team entry...
I have some video....will find a place to post it. Can I also say a massive thanks to everyone for making our guest Amanda USA (or "The Pink Blur" as she was christened) feel so welcome. She "had a blast" and is looking forward to introducing Barriet to New York (and she promises to return her next year).

    • bizarre responses from everyone but Cancerian 🤷🏾‍♀️ As an LL resident surely a perfectly normal enquiry in that one might wish to know who to look out for if lawless/feral kids are wreaking havoc? any distinguishing marks on the perpetrators? presumably the objection is that a physical description might reveal the alleged culprits as non-white? (nothing else makes sense with this bourgeois over-sensitivity). same botched thinking that causes police descriptions of suspects on the loose to omit this info  (top way to protect the public / solve the crime) FYI i'm a mixed-race female and interested in THE TRUTH. hence, i want to protect myself & my family against criminals. so please DESCRIBE the physical appearance of criminals or suspected criminals to help to keep us safe. thankyou.  "underlying agenda... strange" 😂😂😂 strange agenda to wish to be safe in my community. well played 🤯   working the nightshift here & getting mildly obsessed/infuriated with the peculiar responses. someone please explain how wishing to be able to attempt to identify, physically, the perpetrator(s) of an alleged local assault is "strange", with an "agenda"? God help us. (wait... "God"? must be a far-right religious maniac) "Unless there were distinctive features such as unusual clothing, how is that going to identify them"... green & purple mohican with accompanying buffalo 🦬 horns through the nose might do it; or simply hairstyle, skin colour, sartorial outfit... 🤔 "and even if it did, what would be the point, without photographic evidence that they had done anything wrong?" eyewitness reports? 😏    
    • Unless they were wearing school uniform with name tags otherwise children do change their clothes you know. 
    • I'd also recommend Silvano for anyone in the area looking to learn automatic, having just passed first time with 5 minors. He's a very patient teacher and ensured I learned how to drive safely above all. 
    • You don't need to do the research. I had to know the numbers as a TV buyer. I analysed the potential advertising revenue and Channel Four didn't cover their costs. They had some nice 'Channel Four' signs when someone hit the ropes but, In all honesty, a lot a potential revenue was lost because most old knackers were pissed off because they couldn't perve at Carol Vorderman on 'Countdown'.       Sorry, cross-post. I was replying to Malumbu. Give me a minute, if you will. I listened to the first two sessions (today) on TMS and popped down to the pub for the evening one.   I do miss the days of Peter West, Richie Benaud and Tom Graveney on BBC2.   But, the BBC are at least putting on 'Today At The Test' on at around 7pm instead of after midnight.   And it was on the 10pm news.
