Sorry to interupt all this Bristol based hilarity, but talking of tits.... Anybody see that bit in fellrunner about EA registration? If you're a member of the FRA you can register for free. I suppose it could save a couple of quid on road races, and I guess we could enter the FRA relays if we wanted.
Any thoughts? Anybody give a monkey's?
Right back to jugs :D
I'm doing it, just to save a few quid on road race entries :oQuote:

Hmmmmm... a Pony team in the FRA relays, I like the idea of it... :)
I suppose I better volunteer for the navigation leg, being a woman and knowing where I am going and all that :D
Thank flock for that:DQuote:

:confused: If page 3 read like this i'd be flocked:eek:Quote:

Paraphrased, it reads something like this......
"In kleeping with tradition, the purpose of the rules set forth in this handbook are to ;keep people guessing; keep purveyors of rules and upholders of law happy with enough wordplay to entangle the keenest of minds; to uphold a sense of mystery of the nature and common sense of these rules and the terms "First claim", "second claim" especially when applied with the other technical terms "fell-running" and "other competitions"; to enable many to twist these words to use for their own cause; to keep admin workers in a job in times of hardship; to greatly amuse little gobshits like fellmonster; to be used to restrict where possible by over zealous officials; be a source of great hypocrisy and merriment when dealing with issues such as race numbers..........."
Guess i should kleep my mouth shut then, and go back to the joys of jugs, i have no flocking idea what all that mleans:oQuote:

Inner sanctum is right.....a good lot of the xc people are every bit as nice as fellrunners to be fair......you doooo get the odd muppet however that doesn't believe you've got a right to compete at xc if you're not a member of a UKA registered club......I would enjoy greatly telling them that you are EA registered as an individual if I were you.........and maybe you'd like to fold your number in front of them too.....hahahahaQuote:

Actually, that is a lie...
As you can see form my avatar picture, me in recovery pose after Garburn Trail Race 2008, I actually tend to pin my number to my shorts... stops it from flapping and makes it easier to take off/put on layers without covering up your number... Obviously, I therefore always fold my number and have been told off on numerous occasions...
Anyway, I think folding numbers is good prcatice... and should be promoted until every race goes back to writing numbers on runners hands :D
I alas need a bigger number it helps cover up the bits i don't want seen!:eek:Quote:
