The Bear is safe and will be presented to the 09 Barry Barry Run Champion Athlete. See attached for details if interested in this cultural event of the summer. All welcome. Last years winner said:


"I still remeber the pain from last year, but I couldn't devalue the competiton as Man U did the FA Cup, so I'll be there"


The bar has been raised again, and again, and again.........


Lasers set tae malky!

I realise people may get hung up on frivolous points like when it starts but I have a few serious queries I would like to put to the Chairman regarding the rules. Mr Chairman if I may ask;


If a contestant puts roller-skates on before the race but does so completely by accident, will they be disqualified? Even though they would be wearing performance enhancing shoes they would not be doing so with intent.


And what if during a tactical overtaking manoeuvre a contestant accidentally runs into the open doors of a No.12 bus and will roller-skates have any bearing on this?

I have it on good authority that HelpMaBoab is en route to God's country and unlikely to make it back online until Tuesday at soonest.


Start time for Barry Barry Run 1pm I believe.


To answer the other two questions Brendan, the only way 'roller-skates' are permitted is if you strap 2 No.12s to your feet. Likewise No.12s. Permitted only when strapped to feet.

Just back from a training camp in Ireland......training going well and last years time is going to be beaten, not by much but surely beaten.


Starting Bell is 1pm however there will be some warm up drills taking place prior to this to enure there are no pulled muscles or similar during the run - 12pm start time for these in the Plough....


Warm down takes place in the Clockhouse as per last year and Barrel Walking should hopefully again be a feature of the event in Bar Story for those still capable.


Hopefully all the info you require is now avaialable. In terms of what to wear, very much up to yourself. Vetran runners may be sporting Rasta Vests again.......


Hopefully see you at the start line at 1pm on 13th June. (12.45pm for registration and vetting of selected beverages to check for conformity)


Ramming speed..................

For those unable to take part due to ill heath, pregnancy, gammy knees or sick notes from Mother, support teams are required to provide water, sponges, first aid, cigarettes, brandy and rescue transport.


>>> this sound absolutely hilarious! I love the idea of 'help points' down Barry Road with supporters handing out crafy Marlboro Lights and shots of gin! Brilliant!

    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
    • 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
