The peace and quiet is quite nice I suppose...

I think people have got in to the habit of registering early. I'm still getting enquiries, but I'd imagine that with the usual last minute cancellations, we'll be about 60 strong.

where is ms handbag ?

...she is on a secret assignment, codename "Wallet & grimace"...aka work - I believe.
It's a soulless job being a shoe designer...always on your uppers etc...

"Stopping!"

 

[BigSteev]

Keeps you well heeled though.

I'm pleased to announce the presence of a bollard on the (slightly varied) route.

Excellent news! That should kill any scepticism about the joys of the Southend run.

Without giving too much away, I'm also looking at tide tables.

Should we bring wetsuits?

 

[Aperitif]

Tide Tables?
That can only mean one thing; a reworking of "Dejeuner sur la plage"...using said tables, a collection of flotsam and jestam..."Manet for old rope..."

 

[ChrisKH]

150 yards eastwards from the finish of the ride is Southends red light district. People may wish to bring the appropriate wetsuit for that.

Don't ask me how I know this as I may have to kill you.

Tide will be out. No need for wetsuits.

Marsh road then, rather than a surfing interlude? That's a relief. I was worried about where I was going to carry the board, seeing as Ruth isn't coming on this one with her usual luggage.

Were not off in that bath that yourself and ILB enjoyed a few months back?
