Bump!

I have friends still lingering on the standby list, tantalisingly close to getting in...

If you have a place and it now looks likely that you won't be able to make it, it would be jolly nice of you if you could email BigBadJohn to let him know ASAP - ie before the end of this month - so that he can re-allocate your place to those on the dreaded list!

Thank you!

Thanks Alan,

Would also be helpful if those on the SB who've decided to wash their hair or some-such in May could let me know that they're not available – when offering places recently I've found that around 20 of those to whom places were offered have made other plans but hadn't informed…

While I love dedicating every waking minute to the Challenge, it'd be nice to be able to do it productively!

If sixteen of you could drop out by Sunday, I'd be much obliged.

If not, have a great time everyone. Hope the weather warms up. At least there shouldn't be any midges!

I wouldn't be so sure about a lack of midges...

By the skin of my teeth - I'm in! Thanks to all who had to retire - maybe you'll be luckier next time....Now I'm frantically tidying up a route!

Congrats, Laura. Only a few more and I'm on

Maybe if long term penalties were applied for late withdrawals without a ****ed fine reason.



Mind you defining acceptable and unacceptable reasons would be difficult.

Good luck Robin.

Now call me "picky" if you like...

But

When that naughty "Would Have Been Challenger's" head gets chopped off, it will drop against the staging before clipping the edge of the bowl underneath, tipping it over.

There will be quite a mess.

Then it will also act as a lesson to others

I am sure this started out as a serious thread.

Oh well!

A whole new meaning to a cut-off date

Another bump
