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).

      Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

      By CPR Dave · Posted

      My point was in response to this:  "The idea that serving as a local councillor (including dealing with the public, internal party politics - which is always the most vicious where the stakes are lowest, and plenty of unpaid prep work) is a great pathway for careerists and moneygrabbers is utter shite. On a per hour basis you'd be far better off working at Sainsbos."   You could give up your job at sainsbury's and do a councillor's work and be very much better off. Most of these councillors earn this sort of money and still have full time jobs on the side.

      No. The pool changing rooms are unaffected.   The gym changing rooms (aka dry side) are being refurbished.

      Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

      By DuncanW · Posted

      Thanks for the link Dave. For clarity, the document shows that he receives the standard basic allowance all councillors get and a Senior Responsibility Allowance commensurate with the post he held. He claims no other allowance or any expenses as far as I can see... which makes me wonder what your point might be?

      At Forrest Hill is there a wall at both ends? Looks like one end is steps on the website.
