[Auntie Helen]

Burak's just texted me to say he can't make it now.

SNAP with ilovebikes' post!

 

[Auntie Helen]

My Chain is slack!!!

So's mine; I'm getting it changed when I have the bike serviced in a week or so's time. I'm a bit nervous it's going to snap before then as it's behaving rather naughtily.

are you suggesting this won't be early enough?

 

[Auntie Helen]

It would be best if you weren't all TOOOO late as I'll be awash with tea and ChrisKH will possibly have got bored of adjusting his shorts by midday!

Hope it all goes smoothly MacB - all seems ok, it's just the body bit. I'm tired at the moment.

X-men to Manningtree - it is officially a 06:30 roll out from the North side of Tower Bridge...somewhere.

See you all there - might even see a few at the start...

 

[Auntie Helen]

Good luck for your enormous peregrinations, folks.

I will roll out of bed at 8:45am ready for Gary's arrival at 9:15 and a gentle pootle to the station for our Brekkie.

One more for the ride

Sorry been too far from the PC lately, I am still intending to at least start in the morning with you all, completion is another matter...

Just had a skim through the 33 pages and I take it 10'ish at Manningtree is the deal.

MOW

 

[Auntie Helen]

Well the ride doesn't start until eleven, Mow, but I and a few others probably will be there from 10 tucking into a breakfast.

I'm going to PM you my mobile number, if you'd be kind enough to PM me yours back. my Little Black Book is getting nice and full of phone numbers of Men In Lycra now
