    Is the tempory card just their way of saying they've recieved my application?


    The next meeting is 08.12.08, and i should get my card 2 weeks after that - so that works out around christmas.
    I'm surprised Al. I thought you'd have joined a Fell Running Club

    Once they find out you have been corrupted on here and are really a fell runner, they won't want you

    Nowt actually - I see quite a few of the Preston lot (and a junior is mates with WPette) on the fells and XC - mainly VETS on Fells though - not many younger ones.

    They will be doing the Pennine Bridleway - I'd get your name down for that - it's a good day out.

    I must be losing my touch though Al as Chief Recruiting Officer for BBH

    Al why don't you start your own club at Uni?

    You could call it something totally random "Preston Uni hill donkeys"
