    hey grumpy!

    Well done, you've got the bug!!




    Pooky - sorry i missed your birthday ...

    Luc - i don't know if you missed mine, it was in March, but thanks for the belated wishes! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Toto - erin is looking forward to Weybiza cause she's dying to meet you, she decided last night she wants to be a drummer in Oasis when she grows up, so i told her i "knew" someone who was a drummer. She has to meet you, so you can show her what to do, and introduce her to wassisname from Oasis. I think she assumes you'd know him! She also asked if you were famous, and did cameras follow you around.... :rotfl::rotfl: i said no, that was Jordan.

    She also asked if you knew the Jonas Brothers?!




    i know, so random!



    Very sad about Michael Jackson, love him or loathe him, the man was an icon....


    but lol Amie @ pegged it = pregnant! How many Magners had you had?!?
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....

    Yes but sometimes taking into account the cost of travelling and parking it works out cheaper!

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    i'd rather pay more for a charity run with a large field of mixed runners than pay cheapness for what is essentially a club run, and you are going to be last by miles....

    Although, after Leeds, walkers should be keeping to the left or something, so runners can run... albeit slowly if you're me!

    I have no travelling cost for mine its in hackney - but I agree it does all add up, I try to pick stuff thats local to me or OH but London lacks cheap races - mostly very expensive - tup North they are a lot better

    Racing is seriously not moneysaving and its getting more expensive :confused:, have you seen Bristol half £30 each :eek::eek::eek:, no chance I'm doing that now!!
