Well for those that are up for the race, the Gun goes off at the Plough at One O'Clock but you should be there a good bit before hand to get your drinks sorted. It's a Pint and a shot of your choosing to be downed at both Plough and Clockhouse. Hopefully our support staff will be able to arrange to have our Clockhouse drinks waiting at the finish line.


Keep on Running

Whatever blows yer kilt up Sean, I for one will be taking this very seriously indeed and bringing my running shoes. Myself and Help Ma Boab are going to try and make the EDF drinks, so hopefully get to meet a few of you in friendly social circumstances, before it all gets competitive :)-D
C'mon Sean, be serious. The idea is that you go to the Plough for the pint and shot - let the serious ones speed off whilst you slowly sup the beer. Then stroll down Barry Road, (or catch the bus if it's raining) and join the mad runners for a easy-going pint at the Clock where you can talk about how your race tactics went tits-up. They'll be knackered and spluttering - you'll be mellow and smelling fresh as a daisy.

Having played Mr MacGabhan at pool I can confirm he is of a rather competitive ilk and will no doubt be appearing in full running gear accompanied by motivational coaches and physios.


I shall be doing the whole thing in evening wear. Are martinis eligible as shots?

I can be competitive - Marmora Man and ???? would even be proud of me! - but I don't know about this one. I'l ltreat this year as a test-run methinks...


(the thought of pelting down Barry Rd only to tumble over a car pulling out of Uplands Rd would be scary - IF I hadn't been doing something similar in GTA IV every night for a fortnight now)

Looking forward to seeing Carnell in correct evening dress, Sean (I just typed Swan, is there something unconscious going on there?) in go-faster stripes and Citizen fooling 'em all with his don't-care attitude before whipping past to the finishing post.


BaldEagle, surely your wings give you something of an advantage?

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
