Re: 3 MONTHS

Andrew W
I bet this won't work.

I don't think the message board can cope with clever code

BUT




I wasn't wrong...

Re: 3 MONTHS

Now you've got us all intrigued, Andrew

Re: 3 MONTHS

The next, thrilling instalment will be ......
86 days!

Re: 3 MONTHS

76 Days now, in case you've missed the fact.



Re: 3 MONTHS

Yeah, yeah. There's weeks to go yet. Loads of time. No need for any arduous training right now. It's still winter out there, so hibernation on the couch with a box of Lindt's finest and the Musketeers on the telly for me.

And maybe a glass of something malty ... just to fight off the chill you understand.

Is this what you had in mind, Phil?

OMG! Total recall! My mother used to shovel that stuff into me when I was a child. Mind you, life was tough in those days - the cod liver oil was delivered separately.

Fortunately she also used to feed me a small dose of gin, so life wasn't all bad

Re: 3 MONTHS

42 days .......... and counting down

In case you were wondering

Re: 3 MONTHS

You're always a day ahead of yourself, Gordon.
It's six weeks (or your 42 days) today.


Re: 3 MONTHS

Oh, my countdown gizmo says 41 days today.

I did get it off Mad, Bad, so I might have known it would be fawlty

Re: 3 MONTHS

Mine says 40. Obviously as over-excited as me 😁

Re: 3 MONTHS

We must be living in a parallel Universe.

I'm sure someone will post the definitive timescale.

This seriously affects my training schedule.

Re: 3 MONTHS

This seriously affects my training schedule.

Training schedule? You have a training schedule???????????????. But it's not even April yet!

Re: 3 MONTHS

Well, no, actually.

I just wrote that to make me look good.

Now, I've been exposed, I will revert to my usual approach.

25K a day, with a rest day on Tuesday.




Well it is almost 1st April

Re: 3 MONTHS

Mine says 41 at the moment, but who cares.
If you rely on a countdown counter rather than reality, you'll stuggle with the reality of the crossing anyway.

By the way, how do I get my gear between campsites. These Sherpa chappy's have no idea. Some daft sod told me I had to carry it.
WTF really.
Bloody madness!


Re: 3 MONTHS

Five weeks then...

Has Lord Elpus been levered from his settee?
Has his Lindt chocolate diet worked?
Has Louise packed yet?
Has Gordon's strict training regime stalled?

Re: 3 MONTHS

...no.

Re: 3 MONTHS



...no

Re: 3 MONTHS

... no

Re: 3 MONTHS

Not Now it isn't!



Soon Phil we be out training on PIES & BEER in the Chilterns after a winter of Lettuce under the watchful eye of Miss W.

Not that he would dare to sneak in a PIE & CHIP!

Re: 3 MONTHS

Just over 3 weeks PEEPS!

All start praying for some decent weather

Re: 3 MONTHS

The tesco.com lady told me today we're forecast a three month heatwave...seriously.

I'm going to hold you to that!

Re: 3 MONTHS

Not me, the lady.

I think it's going to be four seasons in ond day, everyday, for two weeks...

Re: 3 MONTHS

Louise
I think it's going to be four seasons in one day, everyday, for two weeks...

So just normal Challenge weather, then?

Re: 3 MONTHS

Yup!! But we can survive anything Emma, Class of 2011!

Re: 3 MONTHS

As part of the smith commission report after the independence vote,Scotland no longer has 4 seasons, only winter and autumn.
Spring and summer have been reserved to Westminster.

Re: 3 MONTHS

First of May - time to start training schedule!

But first HIGNFY and the last of the Lindt chocs
