    Surely that is a stage win with bonus points! sadly the pub has a George Michael soundtrack, well can't have everything...

    Would have preferred a pint of deuchars, why do they have to serve smiths extra cold? It's not lager ffs.

    Awful things. I bet they'd be nice on the BBQ though. Not like turkey twizzlers, they're pants.

    Good for dunking in coffee though, you just need a big cup to get the wings in and the feet are good for holding so you don't burn your fingers.
  • Just hold on tight. Have you seen how fast they can move once the wings get flapping. To quote from the Beeb who said Penquins can't fly

    And the oil on the feathers stops the tea from soaking in too quickly, avoiding 'Rich Tea'-style early disintegration.

    Whilst I`m here,I am concerned enough about this thread to check my Garmin-average pace has dropped from 10 pages in 7 days to a glacial 20 days for the same distance.Some people are clearly not pulling their weight and are in danger of being dropped-appeal to the Commissaires if you must.
    There is no excuse,its not as if there is mandatory testing after each stage,so I propose the following
    1 speed up
    2 more posts
    thats it.
    If we carry on at this rate there is no chance of getting home for the Winterfest that used to be called Christmas and theres no one to blame but Wiggle.Also,Ive not yet won a stage. :mrgreen:

    Sorry, I will try harder! Had problems logging back on since the update thing. That's my excuse anyway, if you don't like it, tough!

    Can we keep up for another three weeks without major casualties. Not sure my bike is up to it.

  • i've put it down to a fear of the col de bernard manning on p75 and too much cocktail partying--i mean how much can you do after 3 advocaats and lucozade spritzers.

    That all you had last night, Cleat. I could have sworn you were knocking them back by the bucket load.

    Hard cycling by day - excessive partying by night - what a lifestyle!

  • The cocktail party is clearly having an effect on folks performance on this thread.

    I`ve been thinking,it seems a bit lame to just take a stage without at least a toy lion and a bunch of flowers to give to the Mayors wife-we need a shirt.Anyone any ideas on colour,clearly not yellow or pink-purple seems quite regal but a bit odd,sunburnt orange or maybe something a bit designer like Paul Smiths stripes?That would look handsome IMO.Might even buy one and pretend to be a stage winner.

    Mmm,golf needs to get back to its roots,hitting pebbles along a beach as a means of passing the day.Cant think of any pastime thats overreached itself more.And as for the clothes,beyond twee.Give me lycra any day.
