Deejay is a very sophisticated member of society.Quote:

True, but please don't tell them which society.Quote:

He could have easily done... like Mary Poppins :D. I over took him going up and then met him again head on as I was going down again.Quote:

I certainly would be going over the top:DQuote:

Theres a note on the main FRA site from Len I'anson re parking - not surprisingly it seems the fields are very wet and he's asking people to car share, be patient and come a bit earlier to allow time for parking etc.
Jeez mcgeez, how tedious and po faced your life must be balin :mad:Quote:

Wish I was up there with you lot this weekend but giving it a miss... still surfing the cornish gales and eating pasties.
Hope you all have a good, safe run.
now who knows if the camping is still going to be available on fri / sat night?
sure this gets asked all the time, so apols in advance, but ...
is there normally somewhere you can leave a bag at the start/finish?
Yep. A big white registration tent. Dump it there and all will be well.
Unless a homosexual steals it.
Wharfee are you going to be filming tommorow??? and if so where from OR are you going to run round filming....
I think it will be much later than 2009 when the moderators will need to take action about homo-erotic material being posted on the FRA forum. However I do agree that homo-phobic comments should be discouraged. I find the fell running community a tolerant and welcoming bunch and it would be a shame if any minority group should feel unwelcome.
