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!

    • But I don't think that was what you meant, was it? But he can hardly be held responsible for what somebody else did! Just discovered I forgot to post the above  last night, and now it's overtaken by long posts.  I don't have sufficient knowledge  to counter some of what has been said above, some of which appears to be opinion rather than facts, so it would be pointless for me to say anything else.
    • I am sure our lovely Evri delivery team, who do a firkin hard job, take the time between drops to read the East Dulwich Forum 🤫
    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.
