Well what was months away is now but a few weeks and the conversation around the alter of the Church of St Terence of Hollington involves little other than talk of the trip and of course running the book on who will be the first to drop out. Of course, anyone not among the congregation at the time is sure to come in for the most abuse but it shows the considerate nature of our happy band that we at least wait til a person has left the room before talking about them!

Feel free to add your own comments... maybe good luck messages of 'bon voyage'? (or 'good riddance' for that matter), anyway, all are welcome. CC

Well if today's trial run out is anything to go by, we is fcuked!! What chance have we un a foreign country when we got lost on the way to Bakewell!
ReplyDeleteReidy couldn't work out how to do up his helmet, Neil & Pete nearly came a cropper as they were attacked by a collie chasing a chicken across the road and some daft bint tried to crush me between her and the roundabout at Ashbourne. It took 20 minutes to get a drink due to the unnatural phenomonem of weirdos in Lycra and happy hill walkers crowding out what was once a nice place, they should be shot (twice). However after several scoops at St. Terrences, we managed to talk up a good story. By the way Neil, you go off and enjoy yourself, I'll clean the bleeding bikes:-).
If you stop tieing my bleeding boot laces together in the gym i might help you clean the bikes!

ReplyDeleteHope the first night went well. Love to hear how the Digger/Andy sleeping arrangement went.
ReplyDeleteJust remember to keep an eye on Neil if you go for a chinese or thai takeaway, he has been known to takeaway more than the food.
Have great time lads, snow forecast here for end of week.
Don't worry about the girls, Dave and I will look after them for you. I'm sure Sandra will be telling us how much she's missing you Pete.
Yours
Jack
