Barry Barry 2013 - Not a race, an Amble. 13th July 12:30ish

[Mick Mac]

All the local alcoholics seem to be available for this one. Unfortunately I have visitors that day :(

[numbers]

So not quite all of the local alcoholics are available then ;-)

(have reminded an ED/BBRR newbie about this, will be offaly good if she can make it along!!)

[StraferJack]

louthy gag

Unlike Loch Lomond Golf Club - The Barry Barry amble accepts visitors. Bring em along.

as I said on 22nd June post

"Anyone reading this wondering who? What? Why?

Just come along. Have a drink. Meet some people. Hear the glorious recounting of Barry years gone by"

[Gingerbeer]

This may be too good to pass up.

[El Pibe]

dilemma, this or Ben & Holly.

Selfish or unselfish. Good father or.....

[Siduhe]

Proving once more that "Amanda U-S-A" understood not only the letter but the spirit of the Barry Barry Road Race, look what turned up today...

[StraferJack]

Drink of sidhues choice upon request. Well done

Here is a taster of what last year's event involved. The video is mp4 only, sorry.

On a bit of a mission now. Does anyone recognise 11 of 14 (the Marine who took Barry home) or his mate in the checked shirt?

[adamj85]

Guys no need to worry.......I know of Barry the Bears wherabouts! My mate Luke (the marine) has just got back to the U.K. and he apparently has Barry safe at his girlfriends house. I'll make sure you get it back prior to next weekend......oh yes, and mine's a Guinness ;)

I fully intend on improving on a shoddy 8th place finish last year!!

[StraferJack]

good man Adam - but as there is no actual race this year, improving on any ranking could be tricky

This makes me unaccountably happy....

[Help-Ma-Boab]

Great stuff. I always knew them Bears would make their way home. 6 years on the bounce now. Tremendous. I look forward to seeing them and you next Saturday for a pint or two.

Sun always shines when the Barry Bears come out.

[charliebubs]

I wish I could come to this SJ. Hibbs & HMB had recounted great tales of years gone by!!

But selfishly some friends are getting married that same day :(

[StraferJack]

and still you call them friends?

Time to reconsider just what you've done with your life CB

(hope they have a lovely day and you have a great time)

[MrBen]

This is turning into a decent amble!

I will be there but have to leave to get to Hyde Park later on for the Olding Bones.

[El Pibe]

I gather there may be folk in attendance I would very much like to meet, notwithstanding the loveliness of perennials like MrBen, numbers, SJ, HmB (who won't want to be caught next to me) and everyone.

Errm, being 'Celtic' isn't mandatory is it?

Making the ben & holly dilemma really hard.

[????]

I may find an hour or so....we can form an anglo/spanish alliance EP

You are one of us now anyways.

[El Pibe]

I do the worst Irish accent on the planet, ditto scottish.

my "Nye Bevan shat in his pants, if he hadn't I would 'ave" is apparently passable.

But thanks for the welcome ;D

[MrBen]

That sounded more...Welsh?

[Help-Ma-Boab]

The Barry Barry Amble...you never leave.

Brilliant, it would be lovely to see you Quids...its been ages.

[StraferJack]

This time next week, people will be reflecting on the once-only spin -off event

Wavering? Just come along. It might even be the start of your annual commitment to Barry Barry run.
